Nékter Juice Bar, America’s freshest juice bar experience, has launched POWER 40, an innovative new daily boost system designed to flood the body with over 40 of the most vital and powerful vitamins, minerals and superfoods when and where bodies need it most. Available now and offered in a convenient grab-and-go system of six individual wellness shots enjoyed throughout the day, POWER 40 was created to help reverse the damage caused by today’s modern lifestyle and to help people thrive, function and perform at their best.
To create the new boost system, the research and development team at Nékter Juice Bar partnered with Lumen, a nutrition company rooted in Western science and Eastern holistic principles. Together they created a curated system designed to work with any lifestyle to boost energy and immunity, improve digestion, elevate recovery and sleep health, and provide a targeted boost to every part of the day.
“At Nékter Juice Bar, we are constantly striving to help our guests live their lives to the fullest, researching and discovering new ways to fuel and power healthy living,” said Alexis Schulze, co-founder and Chief Visionary Officer, Nékter Juice Bar. “Our new POWER 40 Daily Boost System is a breakthrough innovation, taking a scientific approach to amplifying the impact of wellness shots by targeting and flooding your body with the right elements at the right time from morning to night.”

Nékter Juice Bar’s Secret Weapon: New Super(food)-Protein Offerings
Nékter Juice Bar has also introduced two new, delicious and satisfying, “ultra-protein” menu items to help guests pump up their new year. According to Schulze, “A diet high in protein can help promote recovery after exercise, reduce muscle loss while building lean muscle plus it can help curb appetite to help keep you from reaching for ‘empty calories’ or highly processed foods. As many of us start the New Year with renewed plans to optimize health, protein can be a secret weapon in helping us achieve and maintain our goals.”
The new protein-rich menu items will be available beginning January 19 at participating locations for a limited time and include:
- Peanut Butter Cup Protein Smoothie: made with peanut butter, housemade cashew milk, cocoa, dates, cacao nibs, agave, banana, and protein powder (whey or pea) — with 22 grams of protein
- Strawberry Banana Protein Smoothie: a blend of housemade strawberry chia jam, housemade cashew milk, strawberry, agave, banana, and protein powder (whey or pea) — with 11 grams of protein
They join another protein powerhouse offering that has become one of Nékter’s most popular menu items, the Protein Power Bowl, which contains 33 grams of protein and is a rich fusion of strawberry, blueberry, protein powder (whey or pea), banana, cocoa nibs, coconut, peanut butter, peanut butter granola, housemade cashew milk, and a superfood blend.
