Cheri Schumann, owner of Peak Health & Fitness, is excited to announce her new venture, LOVJuice (which stands for Live Organic Vegetables). The LOVJuice Bar at Peak offers raw organic foods and juices along with nutrition and Permaculture classes to their clients.  The juice bar offers fresh salads, smoothies, and sandwiches using bread alternatives like sprouted breads and wraps.

“Juicing is very important,” said Schumann. “Most people do not take in the proper amount of nutrients. 95% of the vitamins and enzymes our bodies need are found in the juice of raw fruits and vegetables. When you drink juice, highly concentrated vitamins, minerals and enzymes rapidly enter the bloodstream absorbing all of the nutritional benefits of the fruits and vegetables and giving your digestive organs a much-needed rest. The nutrients derived from juicing can help protect the body against ailments such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and various inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.”

“If you don’t enjoy eating fresh fruits and vegetables, juicing may be a fun way to add them to your diet, or to try fruits and vegetable that you normally wouldn’t eat,” says Schumann.

Peak Health & Fitness and the LovJuice Bar is located at 801 20th Place in Vero Beach. For more information call 772-584-3956.
