Ok..anyone know where i can find a health food store here in Doha? There are certain items that i can't find elsewhere and thought perhaps they might have them. Any help will be appreciated!

scarlett...you can make your own flaxeed oil, by taking a tablespoon of flaxseeds and boiling it with water for about 10 mins, and use it as you would the same as you would with the flaxseed you buy, at least you wont have to buy a bottle and waste the rest with the 8 weeks expiry on bottled ones...my doctor recommended this, works out much cheaper...and its tasteless which is good to sprinkle on cereals etc...

bought Hodgsen Mill Flaxseed at MegaMart - only 10 QR. Found it near the flour and baking stuff.

Scartlett - There is a shop in Villagio . Gypsy wrote an article on this shop to a certain magazine. Ask her or I will give you my copy

You are always welcome.    Flax seed is also called linseed.  Could be they are just out of stock as I bought it recently at Megamart.

I will have to look again for the seeds as I shop Megamart all the time and have looked but not found any. will try again with a concerted effort then! Found flax seed oil but it was on a shelf and it requires refrigeration..it wasn't...plus it was 118 riyals for a very small bottle...ouch!!

ohh thanks for letting me know about the others..i'm going to CC today to get some!!

Scarlett, I bought flax seed recently.  The line is Infinity Organic in a light brown packaging at Megamart @ The Centre.  I also got Cranberry juice there, unsweetened but perhaps blended with another juice.  Dewlands is the brand.  Milk thistle is available at GNC as is Dandelion root capsules but not the tea.  Hmm...that covers all your requests except for flax seed oil...best bet Megamart.

There is that store in City Center, opposite and up a bit from Home Centre. Can't remember it's name,  maybe GSM? they have some herbal medicines like Milk Thistle and vitamins, some packets of fibre and bran type things but really it's more for bodybuilders I think, they have loads of those powder drinks and stuff. depends what you are looking for. MegaMart has lots of health foods but they are expensive. Hope this is of some help, jj
