Zero chemicals that is!
As we continue to grow our menu options over these next few weeks and months, our mission remains the same: we are committed to providing whole foods that haven’t been refined or stripped of nutrients due to how they are grown, handled, manufactured, processed. We keep our ingredients simple, transparent and easy to read (unless it’s words like: açaí, pitaya and spirulina of course haha!). We don’t use any fillers like ice, artificial colors or flavors in any of our smoothies, juices or foods. We buy local, non gmo and organic when possible and have great relationships with our vendors to ensure the transparent quality of our ingredients.
When we are talking about nutrition calories, they are defined as the energy the body can obtain from macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats). These calories are used by the body for essential functions like breathing, circulating blood, physical activity, and maintaining body temperature.
Excess calories are stored as fat, we agree, but consuming foods or putting things into or on our body that have been heavily processed, refined, powdered or synthetic for example, actually are detrimental to human (and all living creatures) health and make us sick and our metabolism sluggish.
The need to count calories for weight loss for example becomes obsolete when you are fueling your body with a well balanced diet, rich in clean sources protein, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates. We do our best to make those choices easy for you, as we understand it’s not always easy to prepare these at home when we are always on the go!
Functional foods is what we are all about. “Good Mood Food” and “Food You Can Feel and Heal.”
