There is also a Holland & Barrett shop in Bruges, in the Noordzandstraat (not far from ‘t Zand and the Dweersstraat). I only recently discovered that H&B have a decent range of vegan labelled body and care products (e.g. shampoo, bath and shower wash, toothpaste, face cream), and now regularly do some shopping there.
They also have some food items (nuts, special flours), and a wide range of vitamines and other supplements (vegan vitamine D for example).

Holland and Barrett’s are also among the largest distributors of omega 3 fish oil supplements, which are very bad for marine life and very unecological. Check on their website. If they cared about nature, they would promote vegan omega 3 supplements. But they don ‘t.
