Our Story

Healthtastic Juice Company founder Sara E. Maldonado makes her all-natural, cold-pressed juices with “passion, empathy and love,” carrying on a family tradition that began with her grandmother in her native El Salvador.

“My grandmother believed in juices for good health,” Sara says. “She made homemade juices and would walk every day to a village market in a rural area of Chalatenango to sell them to her customers.”

After immigrating to Canada in 1988, Sara continued to celebrate her roots and cultural traditions by making fresh juices for her family.

She kept experimenting with juices, spices and herbs while learning more about nutrition to deal with her own anemia and digestive issues. A turning point came in 2016 when Sara was recovering from a surgery – she decided to devote herself to a new way of helping her community by making 100% natural juices with holistic health benefits for both body and mind. She and her son Anthony credit her nourishing juices for supporting his return to health after being diagnosed with an abdominal tumor in 2019.

“Each vegetable and fruit has different properties and works in different ways to promote good health,” she says. “In nature there is healing and fresh vegetables and fruit are the best way to hydrate and bring us back to life.”

In July 2022 Sara officially launched Healthtastic Juice Company, with a line of six all-natural, cold-pressed juices, made with fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices.

The vibrant colours, fresh taste and seasonings based on her family recipes make these juices both delicious and utterly unique.
