Our Story


Claudia

Hello, I'm Claudia and welcome!

I opened Health Foods by Claudia in 1990, but my vision to share my knowledge with others about health and wellness began many years before. Many people ask how I got started and I always give credit to my mother because of her simple, good wisdom; she raised her children to always remember the quality of food we eat matters, and to support our own good health... first and foremost.

Because of my mother’s influence, I was thirsty to learn more about natural health and it became my passion. From the ages of 16 to 30, I worked at a local health food store, learning about herbs and vitamins. I witnessed firsthand the power of natural healing in thousands of people. With over 40 years of experience, I am grateful to share my knowledge and experience with you, and hope you embrace your learning as a life-long journey as well. Along with my husband and sons, we are family-owned and operated. We are proud to serve our community as a learning environment for those who strive to empower themselves in the healing arts of natural health and wellness.

We are a full-service health food store in Toledo, OH, offering an extensive selection of vitamins, minerals, herbs, homeopathy, and a team of Supplement Specialists with years of knowledge to guide you.

We offer bulk herbs, spices, certified organic coffee, produce, quality essential oils and accessories, natural pet food, and a large department of body care free of parabens and other synthetics. We also stock raw local honey, locally raised grass-fed beef, pork and eggs. We proudly support family farms raising food with dedication to your family’s health and our environment.

We believe mindful living is the answer and empowering ourselves with knowledge is the key. I welcome you and appreciate you visiting us!

In health and wellness,
Claudia
