Discover The Hidden Truth About Protein Bars!
Protein bars have been promoted
highly in magazines for their
great taste and excellent sources
of protein, but in reality do they
give you the benefits that you
truly need?
Most protein bars typically have 20-30 grams of protein and
are usually either low or moderately high in carbs ranging
anywhere from 20 to 40 grams of carbs per bar. Most protein
bars have glycerin in them which is most commonly known
as sugar alcohols. Sugar alcohols are not really carbs. If you
notice, many protein bar labels always show a net carb
count. Net carbs are those that prompt the body to release
insulin.

2. Net Carbs = Total Carbs – Carbs That Do Not Cause
Insulin Release.
Carbs that have no impact on insulin release are dietary
fibers and the sugar alcohols (like glycerin).
Depending on your schedule, I would only use these bars
when you do not have access to make a quick protein
shake. The only reason I suggest this is because even the
best bars have too many calories in the form of sugar
alcohols. These are extra calories that protein shakes do not
have. I do understand for those who have jobs that it is not
always easy to go ahead and eat a nutritious meal. I do
indeed eat protein bars for the simple reason that I cannot
make a shake or eat a chicken breast all the time when I am
on the go or do not have access to other foods.
So if you are too busy or do not have access to other food
sources or protein shakes, a protein bar is a great way to go.
If you do shop for a protein bar, here are some nutrition facts
to look for:
• Protein: 20-30 grams
• Carbs: 30-40 grams
• Sugars: Under 10 grams
• Fats: Under 10 grams.
• Saturated Fats: No more than 4-6 grams of saturated fat as
most protein bars tend to about this amount.

3. • Polyunsaturated and Monounsaturated Fats are okay as
they yield health benefits.
Good Protein Bars that I like Are (In order of
Preference):
• Labrada Nutrition Lean Body Gold Bars
• Worldwide Nutrition Pure Protein Bars
• Labrada’s Rockin Roll Bars (only when my fat intake for the
day is low as these are high in monounsaturated fats)
• Met Rx Protein Plus Bars
