Protien Bars

Some of you recommended I try to have a protien bar as a snack. Is there one you recommened?

My problem is, I don't like artificial sweetners and I bought one today that contains sugar alcohols. In some people the sugar alcohols causes diarrhea and I happen to be one of those lucky people.

Oh no! I'm not sure if these have sugar alcohol in them but I always keep Zone Classic Bars around the apartment. These are good for breakfast or before a long run.

Sometimes when I just need a push I eat a Pria bar--they are only 110 calories so they don't spoil my appetite.

I've used balance bars for years. I really like them, same for Pure Protein bars. Both taste good.

Clif bars are good, so are Larabars but they both have much lower protein than the Balance and PUre Protein.

I don't eat processed foods & bars are soooo bad that way, so I make homemade ones. Annoying? YES! Expensive? Kinda. But they taste good, are perfect for regulating your blood sugar (unlike strore bought ones that make you crash) and a small piece makes you feel not hungry for hours.

I like Luna bars and Clif bars, or sometimes I make my own with oatmeal, peanut butter, honey, protein powder, and applesauce - no artifical sweeteners!

Re: Protien Bars

I like lara bars they are made with fruit and nuts. They are not protein bars some of them have very low protein content 3g and others are higher in protein. Personally I cannot stand the taste of protein bars or powder. For a high protein snack will have some tuna or salmon. I keep the individually packaged cups in my cabinet at work.
