The club

A happier, healthier Elkhorn — served over ice.

That’s the whole mission. Not a manifesto. Not a challenge. Just a room on Corby Street where the drinks are good for you and the people are glad you came in.

Paul & Heather Merz

Hi — I’m Paul. Heather and I opened Olde Towne Nutrition in 2021 because we wanted a place that made a healthy day feel like a treat, not a chore. Elkhorn already had drive-thrus. It needed a club.

We mix plant-based protein shakes that still taste like cookies, and aloe teas that still taste like candy. The nutrition underneath is Herbalife — energy, protein, appetite control — which is a long way of saying: you can drink a Monster Cookie at 10am and still feel like a person at 2.

Her favorite part of OTN is bonding with regulars and learning one more thing about you every visit. If you have a usual, she already filed it.

OTN has always been a safe space for her. Her job, as she sees it, is to make it feel like that for you too. You’ll catch her with a straw in something pink.

You will find her reorganizing the club and keeping the room clean, bright, and easy to walk into. If it has coconut in it, she probably mixed it.

The regulars

Teachers before first bell. Parents after drop-off. Lifters who want dessert that counts. Half of Elkhorn has a usual. The other half just hasn’t named it yet.

What’s actually in the cup

Candy on the outside. Nutrition on the inside.

Every shake is built to land between 200 and 250 calories with 24+ grams of plant-based protein and 21 vitamins and minerals. A gluten-free list lives behind the bar — just ask.

The teas start with herbal tea concentrate and aloe, then get stacked with sugar-free flavor. Energy comes from the same clean sources we use as Herbalife distributors — not from a vat of syrup.

Beauty Bomb supports hair, skin, and nails and carries an active probiotic. Load It adds hydration and blood-flow support without more caffeine. Neither one is required. Both are excellent on a Thursday.
