Through
an array of innovative, flavorful and healthy juice blends combined with a few
drops of panache, The Juice Standard is setting the standard for pressed juices
in Las Vegas since its opening in March. Located at 4555 S. Fort Apache Rd.
just west of I-215 between Flamingo Rd. and Tropicana Ave., the already popular
juice spot is a favorite for locals looking for healthy pressed juices, as well
as The Juice Standard’s innovative cleanse.
Developed
by two Las Vegas health and juice enthusiasts, Jamie Stephenson and Marcella
Melnichuk, The Juice Standard offers raw, cold-pressed juice blends to provide
a convenient way to juice without the mess and time-consuming commitment of
juicing at home. The Juice Standard applies 15,000 pounds of pressure to fruits
and vegetables that have been farmed responsibly, as well as locally, whenever
possible. Every blend is raw, completely organic and bottled without
high-pressure processing, a technique that some producers use to extend the
shelf life of their product for up to six weeks.
“We
know first-hand the health benefits of juicing, and the more fresh the fruits
and vegetables are, the better,” says Stephenson. “Raw fruits and veggies
contain a tremendous amount of phytonutrients and enzymes that work
synergistically to heal the body. Whether you are looking for increased energy,
a slimmer tummy or disease prevention, cold-pressed juice is incredibly
powerful.”
There
are 20 different juice blends on the menu, each containing pounds of pressed
produce that are packed with nutrition and ideal as both a refreshing snack or
for a meal replacement. Signature juices include Bee Chill, a sweet, refreshing
blend including fresh watermelon, cucumbers and lemon; Bee Positive, a mixture
of lemon, filtered water and activated charcoal to help ease the symptoms of a
late night out; and Bee Abundant, consisting of filtered water, raw macadamia,
raw cashew, agave, Ceylon cinnamon and vanilla bean, all of which contain a
good source of magnesium, further supporting heart health, brain health and
cancer prevention.
Additional
nutrient-packed juices include the Bee WHealthy, a mix of cucumber, celery,
romaine, kale, apple, dandelion, parsley, lemon, ginger and turmeric, known for
its anti-aging qualities; Bee On Point, concocted of cucumber, celery, carrot, apple,
kale, beet, dandelion, radish, lemon, ginger, turmeric and black pepper to help
with everyday health management; or Bee The Change, a mixture of cucumber,
celery, burdock root, dandelion, lemon and pink Himalayan salt for liver
stability.
Juicers
can take advantage of the “Standard Cleanse,” consisting of eight 12-ounce
bottles of cold-pressed, organic and locally-sourced juice, priced at $60 per
day. Each juice is labeled with a number so the consumer knows exactly which
order to drink them in, providing juicers with simple and effective guidance to
ensure maximum satisfaction.
As
part of the Standard Cleanse, recipients receive a daily supply of three Bee
WHealthy juices for overall health management; one Bee Love juice to support
heart health; one Bee Energized juice to increase energy; one Bee Magnificent
juice to provide magnesium, support heart health and can prevent disease; and a
choice between Bee Pure, an apple-sweetened lemonade rich in B-vitamins, or Bee Vibrant, a spicy lemonade
containing cayenne pepper to increase energy and speed the metabolism for a
refreshing feeling.
The
Juice Standard deviates from the norm when it comes to juicing in the way the
produce is pressed. While other juices are squeezed and whipped around in a
juicer, killing the enzymes right as they are released, The Juice Standard’s
special pressing technique preserves as many of the enzymes as possible,
allowing for a more “alive” juice when it goes into the body.
Because
The Juice Standard believes in living a healthy lifestyle and taking care of
the environment, customers are encouraged to recycle their Singletons,
individual 16.9-ounce glass bottles, at the store location for $1 off per
bottle during their next purchase.
Juicing
hits home for Stephenson and Melnichuk, which drives them to bring their
passion for fighting disease through a healthy diet and juice cleanses to the
Las Vegas community. For Stephenson, juicing became a part of her family’s
everyday life when her stepfather was diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer
and given just months to live. Her family then started juicing as a part of
their daily routines, noticing a dramatic positive impact on her stepfather’s
health.
Melnichuk
developed the same interest in juicing after visiting her husband’s
Mediterranean homeland and falling in love with the healthy choices offered at
the local farmer’s market. Melnichuk has successfully put her family on the
road to a healthy lifestyle, eliminating processed meats and soda and adding
juice into the everyday routine.
