Ozgur Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 In Bangkok and surrounding areas, where can I find super foods like hemp seeds, chia seed, raw almond etc? There are some websites selling them but at very high prices. Is there any herb shops where I can find these at reasonable prices. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHolmesJr Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Super foods is a marketing creation designed to extort a premium….normal foods have the same, sometimes even higher % of nutrients. But…Ive seen some of these foods in the Royal Project shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickJ Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Makro has raw almonds. They also have a decent plain yogurt. Kimchi is a purported super food. That's easy to make with Google. You can also find matcha here. Non alchalized chocolate is hard to find. Yeah....the term super food is kinda dumb. But it is possible to eat healthy here. Just costs a bit more if you want to follow the fads. Turmeric is cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 The Mall here in Korat has chia seeds, most likely BKK too! Chia seed is also being grown in LOS, saw an article in a Thai Ag magazine. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubby johnson Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Chia seeds are ubiquitous as Thais are herd animals and will jump on any passing bandwagon. Chia = the latest miracle weight loss food. But hemp seeds are harder to get hold of. Try the Gourmet Market downstairs at Paragon, where there's a booth selling flax, cacao powder, wheatgrass, spirulina, etc. Sometimes they'll have hemp too.
