Health Bars, How does yours measure up?

These are some of my favorite bars. Why do I buy bars? I buy bars because sometimes life is busy and I need to get things done or go some where without skipping a meal. I don't believe in skipping meals because it sets people up for bad health choices. How many times have you been out running errands only to find time slipping away and you're hungry with still more to do before you can go home and eat. For most people in this situation the answer to the problem is FAST FOOD. :( That is how I feel about fast food on a general basis. I like to think of fast food as a last option not the first.

How about keeping healthy good tasting bars with you instead! I find different bars are good for different reasons because of their ingredients.

Odwalla Berries Go Mega-calories 210, Fat 6 grams .5 sat fat, Protein 5 grams, Fiber 5 grams,

16g of sugar

I like this flavor in this brand because of the balance in the nutrients. I love a bar that has a good amount of fiber that won't make you gassy. Yes I said it.

Luna Nutz over Chocolate-180 calories, 6 grams of fat, 2 grams of that is sat fat, fiber 4 grams, 10 grams of sugar, 9 grams of protein.

This one is very good tasting but better as a snack because it does not keep me full for as long.

Think Thin creamy Peanut Butter

230 calories, 8 grams of fat, 3 g sat fat, 1 g fiber, 0 grams of sugar ( 11 g sugar alcohol) , 22 grams of protein. Gluten Free

I think this is one to consider if you are getting a heavy workout in with lots of weight training.

Kashi Go Lean- More details to come

I think this one is excellent also as a snack but will not leave you full for long. Good source of fiber, natural and low sugar.

Larabar- Good bar for breakfast. Fruit and nut bar, organic.

Advocare breakfast Bar- Great for breakfast when you're tempted to skip. Made with real cinnamon flavor, soft crunchy texture that you can't eat so quickly. You enjoy every bite.
