The Importance Of Cafes

Decent Essays
I believe in the saying, “You are what you eat.” If you are putting processed, unhealthy foods inside of you, you will become an unhealthy person. This also effects your mental health too. Some people have taken initiative by opening up organic and vegan cafés that have proved to not only help people improve their physical health, but also mental health. People who have switched to an organic life style from their previously unhealthy life styles filled with fast food and lack of nutrients have said their outlook on life has improved along with feeling and looking better physically. At Juice Bar Tuscaloosa, they too have taken a simplistic, wholesome approach to their café that represents the organic lifestyle people should try to live by. …show more content…

There is 1 page of Juices divided between green and root based juice. All juices are Raw pressed which is important to know. The two main types of juicing are, “raw juicing, and “cold pressed.” The main differences between these two types is that Raw juicing can be done a lot faster and easier, but needs to be consumed within a few hours of being juiced before it begins to go bad. Cold pressing requires more expensive equipment, and more time, but the plus from this is that it makes the juice at a lower temperature, producing the optimal level of nutrients coming from the plant, and it also naturally perseveres itself for about a week. At home, I only drink cold pressed juices because I prefer them over raw juicing, but since Juice Bar has no competitors here, I settle. Juice Bar also offers Juice cleanses. Juice cleanses can are beneficial in many ways. The main way being they completely flush toxins out of your body (The Healing Properties of Juicing). This can be an unpleasant experience for first time juicers, or unhealthy people but done properly, the results are very beneficial for your health. Other benefits from juicing is that it promotes weight loss and clear skin. The downside of a juice cleanse is that it is relatively expensive- about 45 dollars a day. If you are a person like me, who believes that your body is your temple and you can’t put a price on your own health of body and

While juicing can provide necessary vitamins and minerals, it doesn’t provide adequate fiber when it is extracted from fruit (6). As far as fasting goes, the available scientific data is inconclusive (6). Kormos (2017) suggests that common diets propagate weight loss by reducing overall caloric intake needed to maintain one’s current body weight (7). Additionally, Kromos (2017) proposes that intermittent fasting may help an individual to lose weight by significant caloric restriction for a few days at a time during a week, when combined with routine caloric consumption on the days that follow after fasting (7).…

    In Pollan’s essay “The American Paradox”, he defines the American Paradox and discusses how to fix the American diet. He explains how too many unhealthy Americans are preoccupied and obsessed with nutrition facts and the idea of eating healthy. He also mentions that the food industry, nutrition science, and journalism are the parties that have been the cause of this confusion about eating healthy. He thinks that worrying about nutrition facts and living a so called “healthy” lifestyle is the wrong way Americans think about eating today. I agree with Pollan’s argument because focusing on nutrition facts and dietary foods can mislead the consumer and create some health problems.…

    When people caught wind of the fact that organic produce was steadily available for the public, it caused a craze and a surplus in the amount of shoppers that purposely went out and sought after organic products. When one hears that food is organic they immediately assume that it is safer and more wholesome than non-organic nutrients. However, according to David Klurfeld, many fail to realize that there is not enough solid evidence to verify that there are any actual advantages to eating organic food (Klurfeld). This same issue also translates into the problems of depression, as well as its diagnosis and treatment. In this millennium, it seems to be the case that one’s culture significantly influences one’s understanding of a medical or mental…
