The Bronx is home to countless food options, but not all are dedicated to healthy food.
Fresh Wey Juice Bar on White Plains Road in Parkchester has proven healthy can be delicious.
Owner Emmanuel De Jesus saw the positive impact a healthy diet had on his own life.
"People have been receptive to what we're trying to do and they're supportive," says De Jesus. "So, I wanted to help make that easier for other people."
Fresh Wey features an always changing menu of juices, smoothies and protein.
"Everything is fresh, we get everything from the Hunts Point Market, so we're pretty much going farm to table," says De Jesus.
