Gettin Juiced

Have you ever wondered if there was a natural alternative to all the sugar drinks and other carbs that are being foisted off on the public these days? Ever wondered about why all the aches and pains, the sleepless nights, the belly flab despite sweating your ass of at the gym?

Have you ever had that little tickle of an idea in the back of your mind that many of medical opinions and treatments, really amount to giving people pills to take away the symptoms of an underlying problem, rather than actually working to correct the underlying problem in the first place?

It really does make a difference what you put into your body.
 Good Fuel with MicroNutrients = Better Health

I wonder these things. Yeah, I know that I have availed myself of medical treatment from time to time (for example getting bionic eyes stuck in my head several years ago), and know that when I cut my left finger off because of bad chain saw karma, I will be going to a hospital where they have trained medical doctors, I still, from time to time, have this sneaking feeling that there are more threads to the tapestry of good health than the thread of running to the doctor's office to get a pill that covers up symptoms and itself creates even more problems.

If you are like me, and having these feelings that there is more to the total picture of health than the gym or the doctor's office, then you will be happy to know of Juicer Heroes, a janky little joint that I was turned on to a couple weeks ago.

Just some of the all natural ingredients used by JuicerHeroes

Run by 2 brothers who go by the street names of KaleMan and SuperFood, Juicer Heroes is a place where you can get a serving of healthy, natural, made-before-your-eyes juices filled with micro-nutrients, comprising anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals, that can be used instantly by the body.

With names such as Great Green (spinach, cucumber cantaloupe, ginger) and Purple Power (collard, kale, beet, grapefruit, pineapple, ginger) you know instantly that you are getting something way different than the "juice" that sits on the shelf at the local supermarket.

A happpy customer gets
her daily dose of goodness

Disclaimer - I am an ex-engineer whose spiritual awareness was, for many years, at about the level of a slug. In zen-speak, I guess you could say that it was so bad that I was operating almost entirely out of the first chakra. In other words, if the conversation did not include the words, concrete, steel, bulldozer, calculus, then, as far as I was concerned, it was all just a bunch of girlie hooey. Fast forward after 30 years of that kind of grind, which, while it did have its benefits of putting food on the table, took its toll and lead me to re-evaluate.

Thus it is now that I take my omega-3's, my potassium, only eat one bag of Lays potato chips every 6 months, eat sauerkraut with my scrambled eggs ... and drink stuff made from veggies such as KaleMan Creation and CrossfitExtreme.

And no, like always, the only graft and corruption I have gotten out of writing this piece is the fun in taking the photos, talking with the people, and doing the write up.
