Does anyone know if there are any health shops in Doha?

I have a friend with a child who is allergic to a number of things (wheat, peanuts, etc.) and she sometimes has trouble finding the gluten-free products for her son. As previously mentioned, MegaMart is usually where you will have the best chance of finding these items, but stock up if you find something that you need (as opposed to something you want or prefer), because you may not find it the next time you are at the store. Sometimes you can ask the store to order items for you, especially if you are willing to buy a number of boxes/packages of a particular item.

No specific health food shops but some supermarkets sell some items such as rice flour, soya flour, flaxseeds, poppy seeds, organic dried beans wholegrain flour, etc.

Try Megamart at The Centre or Landmark (bigger) for the flour items I mentioned and Family Food Centre for the seeds and beans. _______________________________________________________

No I means shops that sell gluten free products and other health products e.g rice flour, Xanthan gum etc.

If you mean shops that sell vitamins and herbal supplements there are 2 'GNC livewell' one in City Centre and the other in Merqab al jadeed street in al nasar. These shops are very popular in Australia and have good quality products.
