The best vitamin and health shop in Miami is on Miami Beach, and it’s a warm, inviting place offering the greatest vitamin, tea, and natural body health selection I’ve seen in a long time. By best I don’t mean biggest although this place isn’t small, it is simple and low key.
Vita-Life is a neighborhood, corner shop on the SE corner of Meridian and 6th Street, its off the beaten path and if you go during a weekday parking is a breeze. Vita shares the block with Uhma and the Miami Life Center. This holistically, healthy trio is staffed by helpful, well mannered staffs. Vita’s manager, Ray is a former personal trainer and a good resource for information on local gyms and great places to work out. Plus he can pick out the best snacks and teach you all about real label reading.
