My Favorite "On~The~Go" Nutrition bars

I am often asked what is the best Protein bar or energy bar.


I will always recommend making your own, such as my INSIDE OUT FITNESS' MAGNUM BARS
found about half way through the page INSIDE OUT FITNESS NUTRITION.


HOWEVER, this isn't always available to us and you may have to grab and go from the local grocery store.


My TOP TWO choices are

ELEVATE ME Chocolate Acai Berry Brownie
GLUTEN FREE

Elevate Me Bars have played a big role in my life in the last few years.... and this is why~

Made with REAL ingredients such as:

Whey Protein Isolate, dates, organic raisins, apples, almonds,cranberries, organic fair trade cocoa, acai berry powder and many other natural products depending on the flavour.

There is NO crap added to this bar, and you will feel FUELLED and energetic from eating

Per Bar: 3 pieces

230 calories

4g fat (.5g saturated)

                   33g carbohydrates (coming from fibrous fruits)

5g fiber

16g protein

I am also addicted ever so slightly to this glorious bar.....
WHY????
Well..... with a sweet plum-pomegranate flavour, and 4 FULL servings of both Vegetables AND fruit per bar..... its a clear choice.


Calorically it fills the mid day need for the perfect serving or protein, carbohydrate and healthy fats ( coming from seeds and nuts)

REBAR Seeds'N'Greens
85% Organic

Per bar:
             210 calories
             8g fat (1g saturated)
             29g carbohydrates 
             10g fibre (THIS ALONE IS AWESOME)
             6 g protein

The main reason I push these bars is because the ingredients are REAL WHOLE FOOD. You KNOW what everything is when you read it.

There are hundreds if not thousands of 'protein bars' or 'energy bars' on the shelves of stores across the country, but pick one up and try to tell me what the ingredients are lol.

If the list is longer than...... 5-10 ingredients, it likely is NO GOOD.

If you have to ask yourself.... "what is .... blah blah blah?" put it away:)

Again, if you have the ability ( and this requires a few groceries, and approximately 20 minutes..... you can make my personal favorites.......

drop equal amounts of mixture into foil, turning the edges up to protect the sides, and if there is left over tinfoil, just wrap the whole bar.
