FAQ
ARE ALL YOUR INGREDIENTS ORGANIC?
Local Juicery is 99% organic, and our produce is 100% organic all the time, guaranteed. We know a lot of businesses throw organic around and don’t hold integrity around it. We care deeply about our bodies, the earth, and you. It is our brand standard to only source the highest quality of ingredients. We feed our family from this little shop and believe deeply in the power of organic for healing the earth and our bodies.
ARE ALL YOUR PRODUCTS VEGAN?
We use no meats, cheese, or milk. The animal products that find their way into our kitchen are organic raw honey, bee pollen, whey protein, collagen, grass-fed butter and ghee (organic clarified butter), and organic eggs. These are all optional for smoothies, toasts, and coffees. *We use only ethical bee products.
ARE ALL YOUR PRODUCTS GLUTEN FREE?
We use no gluten in any of the prepared foods or juices. We do however use organic sprouted grain bread for our made to order avocado toast and almond butter toast. We offer a gluten-free option!
IS EVERYTHING YOU CARRY LOCAL?
With a name like Local Juicery, you bet we use local produce! We use a mass amount of produce; sometimes local farmers can’t produce what we are looking for. When this is the case, we order from Albert’s Organics and Veritable Vegetables. These companies are organic and based nearby. They source from California, Arizona, and Colorado. Currently we use local citrus, apples, and sprouts.
We also carry work by local artists and local merchandise! If you would like to see your products in our shop email info@localjuicery.com for more information.
WHAT SWEETENERS DO YOU USE?
We do not use refined sugar in any of our food and beverages. We do use organic honey, mineral-rich maple syrup, coconut crystals, dates, and stevia leaf extract to sweeten some of milks, smoothies and desserts. We label everything so you can see! Our smoothies can be sweetened with whatever you choose. All of our food and beverages have been formulated to keep the amount of sugar to a minimum. If you are sensitive to sugars we recommend you stick to our green juices and ask for a low glycemic smoothie.
IS JUICE REALLY GOOD FOR ME?
Our juice is! It’s important to know your juice! Cold-pressed with no HPP is the key. We don't do anything to our juice but wash, press and bottle. Juice must be organic, must be cold-pressed and can't be pasteurized if you want to benefit from it. Otherwise, you're drinking a cocktail of sugar and pesticides. Drinking your juice within 72 hours is ideal for getting the highest nutrition.
WHAT IF I'M NOT VEGAN?
We are not a 100% vegan shop. We carry organic grass-fed butter and very high-quality organic whey protein. We have a little something for everyone. We bet you'll love the creamy dreamy Cacao Pudding, the PB + J Vibes smoothie or the Works Waffle!
WHAT MAKES YOUR JUICE DIFFERENT?
We make our juice at our shop how we make our juice at home; we don’t take any shortcuts, use only the highest quality produce, and don’t water anything down like most cold-pressed juice shops. We press our juice on site where you can see our process. There is no transportation involved; we press with 30 thousand pounds of pressure to unlock the nutrients of the fruits and vegetables, and then it hits our shelves for your consumption. We never treat juice with HPP; we only use organic produce; it’s always raw and always alive; we love what we do!
WHAT DOES COLD PRESSED MEAN?
Dr. Norman Walker originally founded the cold-press method. It is now regarded as the most nutritious way to enjoy and benefit from juice. The fruits and vegetables are put into a triturator that gently turns the food into a pulp, and then apply over 25,000 pounds of pressure to the pulp. The slow pressing process ensures every bit of nutrient-dense life force is extracted out of the pulp and delivered into your juice unharmed, with all live enzymes intact. Our Cold-pressed juice can be stored for 72 hours (3 days) and still keeps its enzymes, minerals, and life-force. This allows us to provide you with cleanses.
WHAT IS HPP?
We believe in freshly made juices with no HPP. HPP stands for high-pressure processing. This is a method of preserving that is achieved by using a ton of pressure. You find these kinds of juices on the shelves in supermarkets and they have a shelf life over 21 days.
WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE OF YOUR JUICES?
We use NO HPP at Local Juicery. We press our juice in small batches on site every day to ensure that you are the most nutritionally powerful juice available. We always suggest that you drink the juice as soon as possible. That said, the shelf life is anywhere from 3 to 7 days depending on the product. All of our juices, milks and packaged foods have a consume by date on them that is applied on the day of production
WHAT IS THE LOCAL CLEANSE LIKE?
Using the principles of Functional Medicine, we have created 6 incredibly healing and delicious cleanses. The first three are juice based and the last three are food based.
WHY SHOULD I CLEANSE?
Our busy world and fast-moving society subject our bodies to toxins, chemicals, heavy metals, stress and overly rich foods. By partaking in a guided juice cleanse, you're giving your body a break from constant processing, digesting and working overtime. This break is what your body needs to expel all the unwanted toxic substances and fat.
Many people suffer from symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, depression, aches and pains, joint issues, headaches, stubborn weight gain, bad breath and bad skin. These are all signs that your poor body is overloaded with toxins. If you suffer from any of the above, you are the perfect candidate for a full body detox!
Our cleanses are meticulously crafted by our detox experts to assure an incredibly refreshing and reviving experience.
