Are you looking for a health food shop in Malta or Gozo? Do you want a list of health food shops to check which is the closest for you to buy from? Veggy Malta has compiled a list of shops that sell healthy food according to where they are found on the island. Whilst many people choose to buy from traditional retail, one must highlight that health shops are important. They offer a more personalised service. The staff is usually more knowledgeable on nutrition and can offer advise. And the product offer inside health shops is more focused.
Health shops are not just for vegans, vegetarians, people suffering from intolerances but they clearly are for everybody who wishes to ingest healthy food. Many health food shops today offer a wide range of products, including packaged health food, fresh food (to consume), vitamins and supplements, gluten-free products, dairy free products, fresh organic vegetables, packaged organic products, frozen food, cruelty free cosmetics and eco-friendly household products. I have listed these main categories and labelled them accordingly.
The following are the labels for the product categories
C – Cruelty-free cosmetics and body-care products
D – Dairy free products
E – Eco-friendly household cleaning products
F – Fresh health food & snacks (which you can consume there and then or take to work)
G – Gluten-free products
H – packaged Health food
O – packaged certified Organic products
S – vitamins and Supplements
V – fresh certified organic Vegetables
Z – vegan froZen food

I like Sattva in San Gwann, and Jane and Anna are always so helpful. The shop is nice and the choice of products is great.
How is it possible that you did not list a well established and well-known shop like Casa Natura in Sliema? Those local shops should be more supported and advertised than a franchise like Holland and Barrett. Casa Natura offers everything listed above and even more. You wont find that many organic products in a shop like Holland and Barrett for example.
Hi Patrick, I understand what you state. As a starter I do not make preference between one health shop and another as they are providing a service and each shop has its positive attributes. If a shop is not listed the probability is that they did not accept my offer to make a review of their shop, as VeggyMalta does not do mystery shopping reviews. As you can see all the shops listed have been been visited and reviewed as a service for my readers. You will understand that VeggyMalta cannot recommend any shop that has not been visited and reviewed. This does not mean that to try to cover the entire health market on the island. I appreciate your feedback.

Great info and please keep updating. much appreciated
Thanks
I personally use Holland & Barrett Sliema, so helpful and so conveniently located. Plus they have all I need in one shop .. it’s great to have this international chain here as well.
Thanks for the list. Please keep it updated and add on new shops. Maybe other lists on restaurants and providers as well in the future. Thanks
I am pleased to see that there is a growing list of health shops in Malta .. which means that more people are becoming aware of what they are eating.
thanks for the list! went to eat at livwell a couple of months ago and the food was a nightmare. love most of the other options especially the places where they sell organic fruit and veg!
Thanks Rachel,
I am sorry to hear about your unfortunate experience at Livwell 🙁
Veggy Malta is constantly updating the list and will have reviewed a few more health shop additions to the list shortly.

I will be visiting Malta soon for 2 weeks and staying in an apartment in Birgu. I won’t have a car. Is there a store where I can buy fresh organic vegetables within walking distance? Thanks!
Hi Allen, I don’t believe that there is within walking distance at Birgu. You can find at Hames Sensi @ Fgura or otherwise you can order from organic food suppliers that do deliveries:
Farmers Deli http://veggymalta.com/farmers-deli-organic-fruit-vegetables/
Barbuto http://veggymalta.com/barbuto-fresh-organic-vegetables-fruit-delivered-sicily/
Naturali http://veggymalta.com/naturali-fresh-organic-fruit-veg/
Hope this helps. Enjoy your holiday and share with us your experiences.
Thanks VM team
