The popularity of [cold-pressed juices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twisted-alchemy) has led to the creation of dozens of juice bars that hope to cash in on growing health consciousness, but Lifehouse Tonics is a new tonic bar in Los Angeles that takes a different approach.

Like many juice bars, Lifehouse Tonics specializes in producing drinks that are organic, non-GMO and vegan. But this tonic bar takes it a step further by infusing its drinks with [herbs, superfoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/botany-elixirs), [medicinal mushrooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-ground-elixirs) and other life-enriching ingredients that stem from ancient Ayurvedic and Chinese rituals.

Some common ingredients that won't be found on the menu include spinach or celery, which are often used as a base for green juices and smoothies. This is because Lifehouse Tonics makes a point to blend its ingredients in a way that makes them bioavailable.
