Choosing organic doesn’t have to stop with your food cupboard. 🌱

How about what’s in your supplement drawer?

If supplements are already part of your routine, there are organic options there too – including the Source of Life Garden range from NaturesPlus.

The range uses certified organic whole foods, with options covering everything from vitamins B12, C, D3 and K2 to iron, calcium, folate and multivitamins. 🌿

And NaturesPlus isn't the only name you'll spot on our shelves with organic options.

Brands Viridian, KIKI Health and Fushi also have organic products within their ranges, so there may be more opportunities to choose organic than you realised.

That's really what we've wanted to show you this Organic September.

Going organic doesn't have to mean changing everything you buy overnight. It could be something you cook with every week, the chocolate you keep for a treat or checking whether there's an organic option next time you're replacing one of your usual products.

And that includes your supplements!

Come in and explore the organic options we have at Tullivers. We'll show you what we stock and help you understand the different choices.

One small swap at a time. 🌱

Who said your organic swap couldn’t be indulgent? 👀🍫

Because Organic September isn’t only about the sensible staples in your shopping basket. The treats count too!

And if you’re going to make chocolate your next organic swap, Booja-Booja is a pretty delicious place to start.

They’ve been creating organic chocolate treats since 1999, and everything they make is certified organic by the Soil Association. They’re also completely vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free and soya-free.

And they’ve picked up quite a few fans along the way - not to mention 180 awards by the end of 2023!

But credentials aside, these are first and foremost deliciously indulgent chocolate truffles. Rich, smooth and made for those moments when only chocolate will do. 😋

You’ll find a selection of Booja-Booja truffles in our little chocolate fridge at Tullivers and on the shelves, with flavours including Hazelnut Crunch, Around Midnight Espresso, Fine De Ch*****ne and Almond Salted Caramel. And… there are even more flavours coming so watch this space!

So if chopped tomatoes were the practical organic swap, consider this your reward. 😉

Come and have a mooch on Colliergate and see which box takes your fancy.

Now the important question… which is your favourite flavour? 👀

PS. Remember we have Booja-Booja ice-cream in the freezer too!

Overwhelmed by all the choice in a health food shop? Here’s how we make it easier at Tullivers.

Because with so much on the shelves, how do you know where to start?

Which type of supplement do you need? What's the difference between two products with the same name? Which is best absorbed? What can you take alongside other supplements or medication? And what happens if you can't find the product you want?

Well, at Tullivers our aim is to put you at ease, and answer your questions with care. And this isn’t just us telling you that - our customers say it too!

Sue recently left us this lovely review:

“I have been shopping at Tullivers for years. They are very knowledgeable regarding absorption, how products work etc. I would not shop anywhere else for supplements or anything else for that matter.

If you want advice on what you need, they again, are very knowledgeable on what would be useful and what would not. Also what can and should not be mixed. An absolute invaluable service.”

Our knowledge means you don't have to work it all out by yourself.

Come in and tell us what you're looking for – or what you're unsure about – and we'll help you understand the options.

Because the outcome shouldn't just be walking away with a bottle in a bag. It's walking away understanding what you've bought and feeling confident about how to use it.

And sometimes helping you looks a little different in other ways too.

When mobility issues made it difficult for Sue to get into town, she was able to pay over the phone and have her products posted to her.

As she put it: “Who else would do that?”

(She also confessed to spending “a small fortune” whenever she does come into Tullivers, but we take no responsibility for that. 😂)

So whether you know what you're looking for but just don’t know where to find it, or haven't got a clue where to begin, come and talk to us.

We'll help you make sense of it.

Are your joints starting to remind you that autumn is on its way? 😖

The temperature’s dropping, the rain coming and darker days creeping in - and if you already experience aches and stiffness, you might be noticing them a bit more.

But joint health isn't only about what you reach for when something hurts. There are everyday changes you can make to look after your joints too.

🚶 Keep moving
Stiffness can make you want to rest, but regular movement can help keep joints mobile and strengthen the muscles that support them. Walking, swimming and gentle strengthening exercises are good options - find a movement that works for you.

🥗 Choose foods to help from within
A healthy, balanced diet is important for your overall health, and foods such as oily fish, nuts, seeds, fruit and vegetables are good additions to your plate to support your joints.

And then there's turmeric. 🌿

It’s probably already in your kitchen, but there's more to the golden spice than adding flavour to food. It contains curcumin, known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Add it to curries, soups, rice and other dishes - you can pick some up at our specialist spice counter. You'll also find turmeric in supplements and other joint-health products.

♨️ Try some topical TLC
Direct warmth from a hot-water bottle or heat pad can help ease pain and stiffness. We also stock gels, balms and ointments containing ingredients such as arnica, comfrey and Boswellia for topical application.

💊 Consider supplements
As well as turmeric, other supplements include glucosamine, omega-3 fish oil, calcium and Boswellia Serrata.

Now you know your joints ache. But what you don't know is your glucosamine from your Boswellia - and that's where we come in!

Our friendly team can talk you through our joint-health products to help you understand the different options we stock.

Because your joints do a lot for you every day - pop in to return the favour! 🦴

This might just be the easiest organic swap you make. 🍅🌱

Because it’s something you probably reach for a lot in your cupboard…

Chopped tomatoes!

One of those everyday ingredients that earns its place on the shopping list for pasta sauces, chilli, curry, soup, casseroles, shakshuka, pizza sauce… one tin can go a long way.

And for Organic September, we’re putting the spotlight on one of our favourite brands - Suma Organic Chopped Tomatoes.

Fun fact! Suma were the first UK brand to offer organic chopped tomatoes in a tin, back in 2001 - and they’re still one of Suma’s bestsellers today.

The tomatoes are grown and ripened in Italy, giving you that rich tomato flavour you want at the heart of so many meals🍅

And that's the thing about choosing organic - it doesn't have to mean completely changing the way you shop. You can start with the staples you use all the time.

So next time you're reaching for a tin of chopped tomatoes, try Suma for your organic swap (you can get them from us of course!).

Now tell us - what do chopped tomatoes become most often for in your kitchen? Share your most loved recipes with us! 😋

There’s one thing you might not have ticked off the back-to-school checklist… 👀

Because you’ve been busy labelling uniform, buying shoes and restocking pencil cases!

But September means changing routines, busier weeks and less sunshine - and for children heading back to school, clubs and activities, a lot more mixing too.

The same goes for children who learn at home, with clubs, groups, sports and days out.

And it’s important to support their health as we head into autumn, so here’s what to have in the cupboard for the months ahead:

☀️ Children's vitamin D
Helps the body absorb calcium and phosphate, which children need for healthy bones, teeth and muscles. Needed during autumn and winter when we can't make enough vitamin D from sunlight in the UK.

🌈 Children's multivitamins
Growing bodies need a whole range of nutrients, and a good diet should always come first. But a children's multivitamin can help fill nutritional gaps - particularly if your child has a restricted or limited diet. A great (and convenient!) option to support your family.

🫐 Elderberry syrup
Has a long history of traditional use during cold and flu season, which is why we recommend it for your autumn cupboards. Preliminary research shows black elderberry may help reduce the severity or duration of upper-respiratory symptoms.

🌿 Tissue salts and homeopathic products
If you like to use complementary remedies as part of your winter wellness, we stock a good selection and can talk you through the products suitable for a range of different ages.

🪻 Essential oils
Some can be used to add fragrance to your home, others, like Tea Tree, can be used for their natural antibacterial and cleansing properties. But not all oils are suitable for children, and need particular care. Ask us about age-appropriate oils and how to use them safely for children.

And perhaps the most useful thing we can offer? Advice.

No need to stand in front of a wall of supplements and remedies wondering what's suitable for children. Come in and see us - our friendly and helpful team can show you all the options we have.

Then that's one more thing you can cross off the September to-do list! 💚

You want to make organic choices, but this is what you’re faced with…

Different labels, ingredients, certifications, brands - and usually a higher price tag too.

So where do you actually start?

Well, Organic September is a great time - and it starts next week. 🌱

It’s a month dedicated to helping you discover organic, understand what you’re buying and find simple ways to introduce more of it into everyday life.

And there are some pretty good reasons to give organic a go.

Choosing organic can mean fewer pesticides, higher animal welfare standards and farming practices that support healthier soils and more wildlife. So even a small change to what you buy can support a different way of producing the things we use and eat.

And that doesn't mean everything in your basket needs to become organic immediately! This year, the Soil Association is encouraging us to start with just one or two swaps.

And that's where we can help.

We have a great selection of organic products across our wholefoods, teas, herbs and spices, skincare, beauty and personal care ranges (we’ve been stocking them for years!). And each week of Organic September we’ll be sharing a hero product from the shop to inspire you.

But remember, you don't have to figure it all out by yourself.

Come in and have a chat - tell us what you're looking for, what you already use or what you'd like to change, and our lovely team can help you with options from our shelves.

Your first organic swap could be waiting for you right here - come in and find it. 🌿

Both are part of Yogi’s colourful new-look range - and they’re a great addition to our tea shelf and your tea cup!
