If bulk shopping is your jam, arm yourself with your reusable bags and mason jars and head to Neofoods. A haven for healthy vegan meals and homemade products from local artisans.

Consider switching to plant-based proteins such as pulses, grains and greens! Reducing the consumption of animal products is the best way to mitigate climate change and a wise, affordable alternative to improve your family’s health.

In Mauritius you will find villagers on the street selling a small amount of fresh eggs from garden-risen hens – the best way to know is to ask! La Ferme Mon Choisy sells free-range chicken and eggs as well. These are often smaller in size but bursting in flavor and nutrients, rather than antibiotics that commercial farmers inject to increase yield.

Similarly, look for local fishermen selling the catch of the day. You will most likely find them on a Saturday morning on the beach of any fishing village, at around 9:00am.

Try to switch from products labelled “Danger / Caution / Warning” to softer alternatives nontoxic enough that they require none of the signal words above on their label.

When ingredients are listed, choose products made with plant-based, instead of petroleum-based, ingredients.

Health Solutions Market offers a wide-range of household organic products such as soap and toothpaste, extending to coconut oil, super foods and a variety of goodness-loaded products. L’instant Bio offers organic make-up and biodegradable cleaning products good for your home and the world.
