The Health Nut

I went to The Health Nut a month ago and they were very helpful. The woman answered all of my questions & gave me a tour. The staff is very attentive and knowledgeable. I thought the jojoba oil and probiotics were expensive but they had smaller bottles as options for example. Although they were out of some choices, they do have another store in Alpharetta from which to order. It was inconvenient however because I don’t live close so couldn’t return quickly when the items would be in stock.

In some ways I am not surprised I am the first person to write a review because I have lived in Georgia for 12 years and visit Stone Mountain park weekly and didn’t even know this place existed … till I decided to make a detour and find some grub after a particularly chilly trail run. Imagine my surprise to see a health food store around the corner from the very unhealthy, but tasty, German restaurant.
The pros: This is a pretty well-​stocked health food store that leans more on the vitamin/​natural remedy side, than the healthy and organic food side. Yes they have flax, chia, gluten-​free options, Ezekiel bread, etc. But this is no Whole Foods or Sevananda — not even close. I also like the 10% off option when you buy a case of anything.
The cons: It is frightfully expensive, especially for Stone Mountain/​East DeKalb. I bought two boxes of flax-​enhanced pasta (BOGO), two coconut waters and four protein bars … and paid $ 31. Um, what?
If this place really wants to improve their business — the owner said they’ve been there for five years — they need to lower their prices. Plain and simple.
