This makes it a great place to hangout with friends or to get some studying done. The baristas are also very welcoming and friendly and are ready to answer any questions one may have about the menu. Ashley Prochazka, a member of the Salina Community says that “my favorite thing about Balance Nutrition is the environment! The store is always clean and very nice inside. And the workers are all friendly every time I go there. My favorite drinks are energy teas. They always taste so good!”

Recently opening in March of 2024, Balance Nutrition has already seen a bunch of success because of their involvement in the Salina community. Located on 2336 Planet Ave, Balance Nutrition is only a few minutes drive from campus, making it an easy place to stop for Kansas Wesleyan students before or after classes or practices.

Their teas come in many flavors, and are full with a variety of antioxidants in them, as well as healthy energy too. All of their shakes all have about 20G of protein in them, and you can even add more protein to that if you want. They also have meal replacement shakes as well. Shelby Lingle, a student at Kansas Wesleyan University says that “I really like Balance’s meal replacement shakes. They are perfect for when I am on the go and when I need a little more protein.”
