Juice bar seeks to support health with blended produce

Located inside Whole Foods Market at The Domain, Squeeze, a smoothie and juice bar, has a variety of vegetables, fruits and supplements to blend into customized drinks for customers.

Incorporating supplements, smoothies and juices into a daily diet can help people get their needed dose of fruits and vegetables to stay healthy, said Denise Weir, team leader for the Whole Body department.

Supplements such as probiotics and antioxidants can be beneficial, she said. Probiotics are dietary supplements containing live bacteria that are beneficial to the body. Antioxidants can help avoid illness, increase energy, decrease stress, support bone health and strengthen the immune system, she said.

"We want our guests to try a lot of the [supplements] before fully investing in the product to take home," Weir said. "We welcome our guests to grab something, take it to the juice bar and they can add it as a boost to their juice or smoothie."

Squeeze also has fresh wheatgrass that is beneficial for detoxing and supporting the immune system, she said. Wheatgrass shots start at $2 and can be drank by itself or blended into a smoothie or juice. The menu also includes ingredients such as Greek yogurt, almond milk, apples, oranges, beets, carrots, flax oil, coconut water, kale and red bell peppers.
