They say they have "bulk delivery". You decide…read more Ali once claimed I was the St. Henri store's first customer. I have type-2 diabetes. Which I've mentioned multiple times to ALI, as I've tried for 40 years to get him to carry stevia, the only acceptable sugar substitute for diabetics (according to my doctor). So much fun realizing they just eliminated it from their shelves...altogether. But it was this bulk grain order that's turned me off this store, perhaps for good: I ordered 5 X 20KG bags of grain. Kamut, Spelt Rye, Buckwheat and Oats. The Kamut, Spelt, Rye and Oats arrived in a reasonable amount of time. And, as I am handicapped, Ali brought it right up to the third floor. Nice. I haven't seen any sign of the buckwheat, in the 5 months since. Despite Ali giving his word it was coming. But the oats were the kicker. "Not fit for human consumption" is the description I'd give them. Every mouthful a festival of oat husks, and I'm spitting that &^%%$ out for an hour after every breakfast. I told Ali about it, days after it was delivered, and again, he gave me his word it'd be replaced. 5 months later, I'm still waiting. When the weather's good enough for me to get to the store, with my two canes and without my ebike, limited to about 3 blocks range...I limp to the store and I'm told that "Ali doesn't want to deal with this." Well. I don't exactly want to deal with an enormous bag of pig-oats, which I'm now forced to eat every day. I NEED oats for my diet. And there's no way I can carry a 20KG bag downstairs to throw it out. So now I'm forced to eat BAD oats I don't like...and to wonder why I'm being treated so shoddily. So "bulk delivery"??? Meh. Use TAU

If you enjoy a personalized, informative non pushy shopping experience definitely check this place out. Great for gifts too. They have mini incense variety packages and cute stones etc. They will help you find something that suits the person you are buying for. They also have an in store loyalty program.

I have been going to this store that sells health supplements, Ki Nature et Santé for years and…read moreyears. There are two stores; one on St Denis and one in Pointe Claire. The proprietor is Peruvian born Juan Wong. He studied pharmaceutical studies and graduated as a pharmacist. You can buy supplements anywhere but at 'Ki' there are naturopaths and Mr. Wong, himself who are available to advise you on lifestyle changes and which supplements can be effective, taking into consideration the medical condition of the client...and even what medications the person takes. Several years ago I was plagued with very itchy hives (urticaria) that would not go away. They had become progressively worse over the years, at that point erupting constantly. My quality of life was compromised. I visited two dermatologists and an allergy doctor who prescribed antihistamines...for life. The side effects were debilitating. After 8 months on the drugs, I went to see Mr. Wong at Ki Nature et Santé and the first thing he said was to stop eating all carbs (no bread, no sugar, no pasta or cereal etc.., not even fruit). and to eat protein and plenty of vegetables. I did as he said and two days later I was off the antihistamines...and the hives did not return! After a week, I decided to reintroduce a bit of bread and the hives started to return. I stopped all carbs again and they went away. I was only able to slowly reintroduce carbs after a month. To this day, hives will only start to return if I overdo the carbohydrates. It was Mr. Wong who explained that carbs increase inflammation in the body. And as we know, inflammation is at the base of so many diseases. I sent an acquaintance, someone newly arrived in Canada who was hit suddenly with a severe case of lupus, to see Mr. Wong at Ki in Pointe Claire. When I see the wife of this person, she cannot say enough about the help her husband received from Mr. Wong. Mr. Wong also keeps on top of the latest medical research and studies. He has helped many of my friends and family members with a variety of conditions. I thank him and his team at Ki for years of invaluable advice and recommendations.

I came to him with problems of severe depression that has been lasting for more than 7 years now and the first thing he told me was that he couldnt help me. He said that if he didn't know the cause for my depression that he couldn't help me. He never asked for my symptoms. He thinks he knows everything. Our whole discussion was him trying to pinpoint the cause of my depression. I told him that there is no known cause for depression to this day and he laughed saying there is ALWAYS a cause. I said there can be many causes and that you can't pinpoint just one cause. I then tried to talk to him about nutritional deficiencies and the possibility of being depressed because of poor nutrition. He started laughing again and said it didn't matter and that there wasn't much he could do to help me. All he did was pretend he knew everything about depression when obviously he knew NOTHING and all he did was give me stupid tips like go to the pool and watch children play or get a job with children it will help you. He never let me speak or express myself, he just interrupted me the whole time by laughing at me. In the end he said that what would really help me was HIS energetic therapy. He did all that just to sell his service. Unprofesional, painfully ignorant, unhelpful and full of himself. Don't go to a place where employees don't know what they are doing.

This winter I decided I want to do some sort of intense physical activity, and I settled on zumba…read more It seemed fun, so I tried a free class and now I'm hooked! I settled on Bamboofit because of location and fee structure. Bamboofit works on a card system: you buy a certain number of classes and they are loaded into an account. You are given a key fob with bar code and you scan it whenever you go to a class. The cost is very reasonable when you buy a bunch of classes and you have a year to use them. Perfect for someone who travels often and/ or has a highly variable schedule. The studio is large and bright. A word of caution however: there is no locker room. There's a curtained changing area and bathrooms, but no lockers or showers. You arrive, take off your boots and coat, and then bring your valuables to class with you. It works fine, but is good to know ahead of time. Between the energetic instructors and upbeat music, I never fail to leave the class smiling. Zumba is a little different from traditional aerobic classes as the focus is less on getting the moves right and more on moving and having a good time. At my first class I was a bit confused and missed the frantic calling of moves I was used to. Now that I'm used to it I love it. I focus less on doing exactly what the teacher is doing and more on the movements themselves. I'm not the most coordinated person, so sometimes I just focus on moving in the same direction and not crashing into anyone. But I have a good time doing it! The clientele, while varied, is primarily young and fit. I am by no means a small person (short yes, small no), nor a particularly coordinated one and I have always felt welcome and comfortable. If you're thinking about trying it out, DO IT!
