PROUD TO HAVE SPENT MORE THAN 80 YEARS BUILDING HEALTHY COMMUNITIES

 

Organic

Perfection is overrated. Healthy living doesn’t have to be difficult, demanding or unwavering—it’s the act of striving towards a healthier, higher quality of life. Akin’s Natural Foods is one of the longest operated natural foods markets in the nation.  Since 1935, we’ve been recognized as one of the most steadfastly innovative retailers of natural foods in the US, and we’re dedicated to providing thoughtfully selected, responsibly sourced food and supplements to those that have made the conscious and intentional choice to live a healthier life.

Beyond supplements, cruelty-free cosmetics, aromatherapy, organic groceries, allergen-friendly foods, organic produce, fresh packaged foods, pet supplies and carefully curated cooking items, we have the most knowledgeable and well-trained staff in the industry. Our employees care deeply about helping our customers achieve their health goals safely and with products that are truly beneficial. In a world overflowing with brands, personalities, and stores making all kinds of claims regarding better health, it’s increasingly difficult to know whom to trust. But our customers aren’t interested in fads.

They’re interested in living a more fulfilling life by feeding your body the nutrition it needs. They’re invested in it. You’re invested in it. Life is yours, after all. And now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good.

Natural, wholesome, and trustworthy has always been our creed. Since 1935, Chamberlin’s has been recognized as one of the most innovative retailers of natural foods in the US, but it’s our dedication to providing thoughtfully selected, responsibly sourced food and products to our local Florida friends and neighbors that we’re most proud of. Our staff members’ knowledge is also off the charts–giving you one-on-one attention to show you the best nourishment nature has to offer.

And, those are just a couple of reasons why we are Central Florida’s trusted resource for all-natural vitamins and groceries, organic and local produce, cruelty-free cosmetics, and even organic pet food and baby care. Another reason? We hold our products to a pretty high standard: if it has artificial flavors, colors or preservatives, you won’t find it in our stores or on our ingredients lists. Ever.

We know that a community can change the world for the better. We know it because we see it–every single day in every aisle. That’s why we’re part of an ever-growing, vitality-seeking group of people of all ages and in all stages of health. Together, we’re making Central Florida a healthier, happier place.

Our Story

To become your market of choice and to all health conscious, earth-friendly consumers. To serve you truly organic products with the best quality in the market. To build trust, customer satisfaction, and loyalty to our brand.

 

Our Mission

We strive to be your green neighborhood market and we’re committed to the many communities we serve. We promise a culture of accessible and affordable wellness with the help of our friendly, expert associates to our health and earth conscious customers. We accommodate diet and lifestyles of all variations including vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, paleo, keto and more. Together we stand for quality, value and health through all of our organic and natural products.

 

Our Commitment

You can shop in our stores with confidence knowing that we carry the safest, healthiest natural & organic products you need and desire. Often loosely defined, we take the definition of natural seriously. It isn’t just a marketing term. We review our foods and dietary supplements to ensure they do not contain any artificial ingredients used to preserve, color, emulsify, stabilize, or solidify them. Our body care products and cosmetics are also screened to ensure they contain the safest ingredients available. We will never compromise or stop searching for the healthiest foods and highest-quality products for you and your loved ones.


Our History

Earth Origins Market consists of eight locations that has been serving the community since 1993.  Each store was independent and had different names such as Mother Earth Market, Sunsplash Market, Nature's Finest Foods, Palm Harbor Natural Foods and The Granary. In 2010 they all blossomed into the name Earth Origins Market.

 

Our Position on Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)

We support mandatory GMO labeling, in support of the consumer's right to know.

As the campaign to label food products made with GMO ingredients moves across the states, Earth Origins Market is proud to stand with the growing consumer movement for transparency by supporting mandatory GMO labeling legislation.

We place labels on our shelves to help identify non-GMO items in our stores, allowing consumers to make an informed decision about their purchases. We commit to supporting brands and products which are sourcing non-GMO ingredients for their products and we also encourage and motivate manufacturers to seek non-GMO source materials.

We believe bioengineering of food is simply inconsistent with the very basic idea of natural food. We thank and encourage all those who are continuing this fight in support of transparency and the consumer’s right to know. Together, we will make a difference!

Frequently asked questions

What are the benefits of guarana?
Guarana is best known as a natural source of caffeine that supports energy, alertness, and focus. Because its caffeine releases more slowly than coffee, many people experience steadier energy with fewer crashes. Guarana also contains natural antioxidants.
What makes a good guarana supplement?
Look for a real, identifiable guarana source, a clear caffeine amount per serving, no added sugar, and no unnecessary artificial sweeteners or fillers. Mana Rush is a guarana powder with about 200 mg natural caffeine per serving, zero sugar, and real fruit flavors.
Is guarana safe for daily use?
Guarana is commonly used daily as a caffeine source. As with any caffeine, moderation matters — most healthy adults start with one serving per day and adjust to tolerance. If you are pregnant, nursing, or sensitive to caffeine, check with a healthcare professional.
What is plant-based or natural caffeine?
Natural caffeine comes from plants such as guarana, coffee, tea, and yerba mate, rather than being synthesised in a lab. Mana Rush uses guarana, one of the richest natural plant sources of caffeine.
