Hello everyone,

As a consumer in Canada, you may seek to maintain a healthy lifestyle by choosing mostly organic products. If you do favour such products, we would like to know more about your consumption habits.

Is it easy to find organic products in Canada (cosmetics, food, etc.)? Where can we find them?

Are organic products more or less expensive than in your country of origin? What average monthly budget do you spend on them?

Can we rely on labels on organic products in Canada? Are the origins of the products verified by an organization?

Are organic products part of Canadian culture? Have you ever tried to make your own organic products (candles, toothpaste, gardening, food)?

In your opinion, is the consumption of organic products only a fad or does it have real benefits on one's health?

Thanks for sharing your experience,

Bhavna

Health foods and health products have been a part of the Canadian menu for 40-50 years, first in specialty stores and now part of food stores and pharmacies. The degree of policing them depends how they are to be used, ingested or topical. Foods and medication of any kind must be licensed and monitored in Canada.

The extent of the health product penetration into the Canadian market is very extensive. You will have no problem finding safe products in this category everywhere.
