"What's Inside Matters" is a slogan we coined at Revitasize in 2025. It came from the depth of our values and a recognition that we truly care about quality, ingredients, customer experience, and how the experience of being involved with Revitasize feels. When we first started Revitasize 11 years ago, it began with cold-pressed juices using organic whole fruits and vegetables to provide healing, detoxification, and energy. Since then, we've expanded our range of goods quite a bit from smoothies to bowls, booster shots to nut mylks, and so much more. One thing has remained the same: We don't compromise on quality and the ingredients inside of our products matter.
At Revitasize, one of our top sellers, for a good reason are our smoothies. Revitasize smoothies are packed with so many ingredients that make will make your cells thrive and have you feel alive! We've specifically hand-selected superfoods that deliver powerful benefits in every one of our smoothies. In this article we are going to breakdown some of the top superfoods we add to our smoothies and why they are so beneficial!
Maca powder:
Many have not heard of this incredible superfood, but the benefits are incredibly underrated. We use maca powder in our #1 bestselling smoothie for years in a row, our Maca Power smoothie. It can also be found in our cookies 'n cream smoothie along with some of our barista menu items.
Maca is a nutrient-dense root vegetable traditionally used for its energizing and hormone-supportive properties. It originates from the high-altitude Andes Mountains of Peru, where it has been cultivated for thousands of years as a natural way to support stamina, mood, and overall vitality. Known as an adaptogen, maca helps the body better respond to physical and mental stress while promoting balanced energy.
- Nautral energy & stamina
- Balanced hormones
- A better mood and resilience towards daily stressors
- Supported fertility and reproductive health
- Supported immune system
Activated charcoal:
Found in our detox smoothie, this incredibly powerful superfood packs a punch in benefits and the difference can be noted upon digestion.
Activated charcoal is a fine, black powder known for its ability to bind to toxins and impurities in the digestive system, helping carry them out of the body. It’s made by heating natural carbon-rich materials, most commonly coconut shells, wood, or peat at very high temperatures to “activate” the charcoal, increasing its surface area and absorption power.
- Supports digestive comfort & bloating
- Helps to bind toxins and impurities in the body
- May ease occasional stomach upset
- Used to support detox pathways in the body
- May support gut and oral hygiene
It should be noted that it is recommended to not consume activated charcoal with medications or other supplements as it can bind to the beneficial compounds as well.
Spirulina:
This superfoods is the deepest of greens you've ever seen! Vibrant, potent, and rich in so much beneficial goodness. You can find spirulina in our hulk smoothie, green breeze, and our focus smoothie!
Spirulina is a nutrient-dense blue-green algae known for its high protein content and powerful antioxidant properties. It naturally grows in freshwater lakes and ponds, particularly in warm regions such as parts of Central America, Africa, and Asia, where it has been consumed for centuries. Today, spirulina is cultivated worldwide and valued for its ability to support energy, detoxification, and overall cellular health.
Some of the top benefits of this rich superfood include:
- Rich in plant-based protein
- High in antioxidants
- Support for natural detoxification in the body
- Supported immune system
- Supported energy and endurance
It should be noted that on its own, spirulina has a very intense taste and smell and is best mixed into a fruity drink or smoothie to mask the earthy taste of the potent superfood.
The ingredients in our Hulk smoothie include spinach, avocado, banana, spirulina, hemp seeds, coconut yogurt, apple, agave.
The ingredients found in our green breeze smoothie include pineapple, kale, spirulina, apple, coconut H2O, agave
Lastly, the ingredients found in our Focus smoothie include pineapple, avocado, banana, almond butter, collagen, sea moss, blue spirulina, butterfly pea flower, coconut cream, agave, and vanilla
Hemp seeds & chia seeds:
These small seeds are tiny in size but massive in terms of their benefits that you'll be shocked at how little you need per day to notice a difference - and they're in many of our smoothies.
Hemp seeds come from the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa) and have been cultivated for thousands of years in regions across Central Asia and Europe. They contain no psychoactive effects and are prized purely for their nutritional value.
Chia seeds originate from the Salvia hispanica plant and were a staple food of the ancient Aztecs and Mayans in Central America, valued for their ability to provide sustained energy.

Crunchy, decadent, bitter, and potent these nibs are one of the best additions to our smoothies, cookies 'n cream giving it that infamous and satisfying crunch with each sip.
Cocoa nibs are small pieces of crushed cacao beans which is the purest, least processed form of chocolate. They come from the cacao tree, native to Central and South America, where cacao has been cultivated for thousands of years by ancient civilizations like the Mayans and Aztecs.
