Protein Bar: Prop. Food-HThis protein bar is a decent option for adults looking for a high-protein snack, particularly post-workout or as a meal replacement in a pinch. It boasts a good protein content and zero added sugars. Good: 1. High Protein (21g): Excellent for muscle repair and satiety. Comes from a blend of whey, pea, and soy isolates. 2. Zero Added Sugars: This is a significant plus, as many protein bars are sugar bombs. The sweetness likely comes from date paste and sugar-free chocolate. 3. High in Fiber (7.9g): Contributes to gut health and helps with satiety, slowing down sugar absorption. Concerns: 1. Vegetable Fat/High Oleic Sunflower Oil: While high oleic sunflower oil is better than some other vegetable oils, the unspecified "Edible Vegetable Fat" could be a mix of less healthy oils. These often contribute to saturated fat. 2. Sugar-free Milk Chocolate (INS 965): INS 965 is Maltitol, a sugar alcohol that can cause digestive discomfort (bloating, gas, diarrhea) in some individuals, especially in larger quantities. 3. Artificial Flavouring Substances: "Nature identical & Artificial flavouring substances - Chocolate, Vanilla, Rosemary" suggests highly processed ingredients for taste, which isn't ideal for a whole-food focus. This bar is acceptable for occasional use as a convenient protein source, especially if you're mindful of the potential digestive effects from maltitol. For a more whole-food option, consider a handful of almonds and a piece of fruit, or a hard-boiled egg. If you need a bar, look for options with fewer processed ingredients and natural sweeteners.
