Not all bars are created equal and very few bars are different from eating any processed snack or meal replacement hunger satisfier. Yes, many have added vitamins or other nutrients, mostly synthetic, but are those statements true? Have you seen the scientific research from the company comparing the bar to medical research data? Are you just taking their word for it? If science and facts and what you put into your body doesn’t matter, then that’s okay but I’ll show you here what to look for and why it might be more important than you think.

Real Research: Clinical studies are essential so look for a bar that proves why it is good for you because of peer reviewed, 3rd party scientific validation that the company is willing to share with you. Many make those statements, but they won’t share the data. That’s a red flag. You should do this for your supplements too. The FDA doesn’t regulate supplement labels and bars are a food supplement. Most everything that states research information is borrowed research and not on the actual product being promoted.

Ingredients Matter: Purity of ingredients is vital. A high proportion of good fats such as phospholipids, omegas, coconut, nuts and seeds, high fiber and low carbohydrates are necessary for satiation, to feel full and satisfied. Phospholipids and omegas are critical for every cell in our bodies. The ideal ratio is approximately 30% good fats, 20% fiber, 20% carbohydrates and 30% protein.  No fillers, no preservatives, no additives and no words listed that aren’t pure food and watch for words that actually mean sugar in disguise.

We all need phospholipids and omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9 for every cell in our bodies. Pregnant and nursing ladies need phospholipids and omegas even more for cellular health for the baby’s growth and brain health and it is important to be present in breast milk too.
