Whey These Words Carefully

Already been to the Restaurant at the End of the Universe? Now, visit the Planet at the end of the promenade. Started a week ago at the Carter Road walkway, Nutrition Planet, a health store caters to a galaxy of walkers and joggers whose fitness regimes revolve around this concrete stretch in Bandra. Here you'll find everything from protein shakes and dietary supplements to vitamin capsules and energy bars. Douglas add ‘ems!

Dial-a-Fat-Burner

Besides managing to grab great product placement and sea-facing real-estate, Nutrition Planet also provides free home delivery from Bandra to Santacruz. You can drop in or call for jars of powder that burn fat, add mass or even make your skin glow, all of which should be taken only after consulting a doctor (we hear fat burners are nasty). While the stock here mostly includes protein supplements from international brands like Dymatize, Perfect, Muscle Tech, Gaspari Nutrition, Ultimate Nutrition, Nutrition Planet also has power pills, multi-vitamins, flax seeds and salmon oil capsules, which we were told are good anti-ageing catalysts by Mr Joseph Andrew Nunes, store manager and health consultant who will guide you through the products.

Protein-age Dream

If the contents of these jars and bottles are too hardcore for you, grab a fun protein bar (fudge brownie, nutty and sugarless versions available) from the shelf, step out of this Planet’s orbit, and back on to your space shuttle/cycle/skateboard/feet. Kick astro!

Getting there: Nutrition Planet, next to Otters Club, Carter Road promenade, Bandra (W), call 26432211, Rs 1,350 for 980 gms of whey protein supplement, home delivery from Bandra to Santacruz.
