Top Healthy Vegan Finds at Holland & Barrett

In today's video we head into Holland & Barrett health food store to see what cool vegan options they might have. We were VERY pleasantly surprised!

I'm Paul Kerton, a former Personal Trainer and Vegan Nutritionist, I am now a full-time Social Media Influencer. Not so long ago, in a misguided attempt to try and grow muscle as quickly as possible, I ended up eating more animal products than probably anyone you've ever met. Through research, I came to learn the deleterious effects that eating even quite trivial amounts of animal products has on one's health and through personal experience, I found that far from being a hindrance to sports performance, a well-planned vegan diet is actually optimal! Then with an open heart, I looked at how we treat animals in order for them to end up on our plates and it shook me to the core. I could not believe that for so long I fell for the lies that others tell us, that we tell ourselves, in order that we perpetuate this destructive behavior. Destructive to ourselves, the beautiful, intelligent sentient beings that are here with us and indeed our very planet. To try and put right my part in all of this I was compelled to overcome my fear of being filmed for YouTube and television, appearing on the radio and more recently public speaking. On a spiritual level, I've come to realise that my fellow man too is suffering. If I won't see harm come to a chicken I've never met then why would I be unkind to my brother man? If someone is being aggressive or unkind toward me, surely the suffering inflicted on them in the past is simply spilling over? Do I want to add to that, or can I step out of my ego long enough to forgive them and maybe break the cycle of negativity? This former, quick-to-anger "meat-head" bouncer has been on one transformative journey!

Nice haul. The "penny sale" can be really good value. You guys might be interested to know that M&S now sells purple sweet potatoes, at least in my local outlet. Delicious.

Hi Hench, I tried your tofu cheese recipe at the weekend and loved it, making another batch this weekend.
Loving your work, keep it up.

I used to work in Holland & Barrett's years ago 😁 As I got a staff discount I used to try stuff all the time, although I think nowadays the range is a bit better. They always have offers on too, which is good (I still go in there regularly).

Love watching your haul videos bro. Nice to see a vegan bodybuilder in our country showing us what's available. I particularly listen to your opinions on the ingredients. I didnt know how dangerous that sulphur ingredient is on dried fruit until you just mentioned it

New subscriber here I love your videos and I’m trying to get fit. It’s nice to see a vegan actually buff and not look sick for once I’m vegetarian and have been for four years but still morbidly obese. I weigh 330 pounds and I was fat before going into vegetarianism four years later I still fill my meals with chips and stuff, so inspirational to see you I’m working on getting my weight down seeing my doctor and eating properly for now on love ur page ❤

Whats your opinion on huel i drink it when my family are out and about eating fast food

Either almond powder or almond butter makes a great thickener for a creamy curry. It also makes a great substitute for the mascarpone in a tomato and mascarpone pasta sauce.

Have you heard of Grape Tree? Great health food shop with cheap prices!

[AstraVex]

Sweet haul, Paul! 👍 Quite a few goodies in there that'll I'll gladly pick up for next time 🙂 (I often just pick up a Nakd bar or one of those Green™ Sour Cherry drinks or something 😅)

[rebpebble]

Blooming love a nosey around H and B 🎉

[janegoodfellow]

Thanks for this 🤗

I struggle with variety as am SUCH a creature of habit. I do try to follow the Daily Dozen though, so hopefully getting enough of the good stuff.

Man promote the independent health stores holland and barrett are attempting to crush them. Independent stores will happily order specifically for you.

[Mrgothvampireglenn]

[morganuk]

Yes, Paul! My old karate instructor. How the he'll are you mate?

[pastillascelestes]

Never though of adding protein powder to a soup

[ChristAlmighty]

"food" from a bag. So natural. So healthy.

[tommyhigson]

Great haul! I only tend to buy the soya mince and chunks from there, as I find Holland & Barrett a little too expensive. I sometimes add the soya mince to my porridge, sounds rank 🤮... But you can't really taste it😜 Keep up with the great content 💪🌱

[ClaresWithBeauty]

Have you tried the no sugar granola from lidl? Really good x
