Pure Protein Bars

[snapy17 39]

Has anyone else tried these pure Protein Bars they are amazing they taste like a candy bar. They are about 200 calories, 3 gms of sugar & 20 gms of Protein. I'm extremely skeptical about their nutritional value if they taste so amazing. I I'm unable to eat mostly anything still without difficulty but these protein bars go down beautifully and satisfy me......... therefore they must not be good...... nothing in my life that has ever tasted good has been healthy so why would I believe this is good..... does anyone have any experience or research on these pure protein bars ?

they are indeed great and have the nutrition you need. watch out for genapro tho. our group was told they are being sued for not posting their correct nutritional facts but inflating them. I keep one of the bars with me anytime I am traveling or may be going to a place where the food is not so good for me. I would be amiss if I did not warn you however they can be overused. since sweets are my trigger I found out about a year out that I can not allow myself more than two per week or I start with the sugar cravings again and that can lead to Desserts ugh this is a lifetime battle even after the surgery. good luck to you

You talking about these:

Those are actually a pretty well trusted name in Protein supplementation. The only negative I know of is the amount of sugar alcohols contained in them. If you were to too many bars too soon together, it could cause abdominal discomfort or diarrhea. Nothing too horrific, but we used to have a saying amongst the vets here, "Never trust a fart". It was because a lot of the foods we start introducing can cause that reaction. So I don't think there is any reason to doubt the validity of these bars nutritional claims.

I cycle through my bars pretty regularly. These, Think Thin, Kirkland, and Cliff Builder Bars. Every once in a while I'll get a Met-RX too, but those are complete Meal Replacements, 400 - 480 calories!

no the pure [Protein are wonderful it is the GENEPRO brand that has the law suit as I understand it. still good product but they were inflating the amount of Protein in their products. sorry I was not clearer
