You might not be a doctor but you certainly know what is common with these diseases; heart disease, diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, stroke, osteoporosis. These are diseases associated with eating fast food. You will think that the number of fast food restaurants will be in decline but I was surprised to find over a hundred fast food restaurant locations in Edmonton. On the contrary, I could only find two dozens healthy food restaurant locations in Edmonton, well those confident enough to say they are healthy.
Pam Dorcas and her business partner have opened a smoothie restaurant, to sell freshly made healthy smoothies, using fresh fruits like mango, banana, lemon, and sugar cane. They incorporate into the smoothie, medicinal seeds and plants like anti-carcinogen, anti-oxidant, and nutrient rich Moringar and hemp seeds.Â
Unlike other restaurants, Smoothie Basics has a book corner to educate Edmontonians on healthy living. They have planned sessions coming up, inviting dietitians and other health professionals to do presentations and answer questions.
For a visit to Smoothie Basics, check it out on 11219 Jasper Avenue Edmonton.
