Robeks Fresh Fruit Smoothies and Healthy Eats opened in Plainview last week. The store, located at 331 S. Oyster Bay Road, offers food, pure fruit smoothies, freshly squeezed juices, sandwiches and other healthy items.

Robeks, which first opened in California before going nation-wide, works with the American Heart Association as a sponsor of Have a Heart, Save a Heart campaign to raise money for heart disease, research and education programs to fight cardiovascular disease, the nation's number one killer, and promote heart-wise solutions.

"At Robeks, we've always been passionate about promoting the importance of good nutrition and its essential role in helping people maintain active and healthy lifestyles," according to the company's website. "Recognizing the need for convenient, nutritious alternatives to high-fat, empty-calorie fast foods, we opened our first Robeks Juice store in 1996. Our goal was to make eating a healthy meal both quick and easy by offering a great-tasting selection of premium quality, made-to-order fruit smoothies and freshly-squeezed vegetable juices, as well as wholesome sandwiches and healthy snacks. Our first store was an instant hit with customers as they quickly learned that eating nutritious food made them feel and look better."
