Energy bars are quick and easy, but how can you tell which one gives you the nutrition and energy you need?
ABC 7: Best energy bars to get nutrition you need
Wednesday, August 11th, 2010Yahoo! Shine: 7 energy bars that deliver
Wednesday, August 11th, 2010Yahoo! Shine pick’s Pure Bar as the top natural bar!
Here is their review:
Spreading a little peanut butter on apple slices may be a healthier way to snack, but nothing beats an energy or protein bar for convenience. Trouble is, there are too many choices. So we munched and crunched numbers to find the best bars, ones that delivered on both taste and nutrition. It’s a tricky business since a bar might offer lots of fiber (really good) and then negate things with trans fats (really bad). And sugars, even dried fruit, do add up. Here are our top picks for when you’re ready to grab-and-go.
We set the “bar” high. Our criteria for healthy bars: Protein: 4-6 grams; Fiber: 5 grams (but 3 will work); Fat: mostly heart-healthy fats; Carbs: mostly whole grains with 10-20 grams sugar
Best Natural Bar: Pure Raw Fruit & Nut Bar
Our top flavor pick: Blueberry
Bar Stats: 190 calories, 6g protein, 8g fat (0.5g saturated), 3g fiber, 19g sugars
Pros: Made with nuts, seeds, and dried fruits, raw food bars harvest Mother Nature’s finest energy with minimal processing. Ranking them depends on your priorities. Organic a must? Pure bars are 100% organic; our runner up, Cashew Cookie Larabar, is not. Fat an issue? Pure edges out Larabar with a little less fat (8 grams versus 13). Love variety? Larabars offer a deliciously longer list of flavors from Cherry Pie to new Tropical Fruit Tart.
Cons: Lower amounts of protein than most energy bars.
