THE REASON
ACCESS & EDUCATION
Beneficial Refresh is not just a cold-pressed juice company. We are a company for the community.
Beneficial Refresh aims to do exactly what our name suggests; Provide your body with the beneficial refresh it needs through access to nutritious juice and education on the health benefits of the fruits and vegetables you are consuming.
The CDC notes that fewer than 1 in 10 adults and adolescents eat enough fruits and vegetables. 9 in 10 Americans aged 2 years or older consume more than the recommended amount of sodium. This is due to processed foods that we consume daily which in turn increases the risk of chronic diseases.Unfortunately, this is prevalent in minority communities and underserved communities.
Beneficial Refresh wants to make an impact by ensuring these communities have the knowledge and tools available to make the necessary changes to their diet to have a healthier lifestyle.
Meet The Founder
THE START
Alexis Prewitt, founder of Beneficial Refresh developed a passion for a healthy lifestyle and eating at an early age. She was born and raised in Cleveland, OH, and remembers being raised in a household full of sugary drinks, snacks, fried and processed foods which led to her being overweight throughout her childhood. After realizing these foods had negative effects on her body, she decided to start her healthy lifestyle journey.
Alexis shifted her focus to portion control, healthy cooking, listening to advice from nutritionists, and actively participating in weight loss programs. As Alexis ventured on her health journey, she noticed her friends and family were being impacted by their eating decisions and habits. These choices led to high blood pressure, cancer, high cholesterol, and even in some cases death.
THE WHY
Alexis created Beneficial Refresh to provide underserved communities, people of color, and people unfamiliar with proper nutrition, nutrients that are beneficial and serve as a refresh to the body through fruits and vegetables in the form of delicious tasting juices. Alexis's ultimate goal is to provide everyone with more "access to life,” one juice at a time.
