Find out why not all cereal bars are created healthy…
Cereal bars are perceived as healthy, convenient and perfect for breakfast on the go. Though despite marketing to the contrary, not all cereal bars are healthy. In fact, many commercial brands prove this. For starters most commercial cereal bars contain added sugar, artificial sweeteners and sugar alcohols, which can negatively impact health. Most are highly processed and contain way too much saturated fat. For this reason, its really important to put your health first and read the labels. There are quite a few less well-known breakfast bars that adequately demonstrate this point.
Thunderbird Real Food Bars
Read the label of a Thunderbird Real Food Bar and you will discover that it is one of the healthiest options currently on the market. Thunderbird bars are vegan and paleo. Most impressive is that their ingredients are impeccably clean, made of ‘real’ food as the name suggests. Thunderbird bars are naturally sweetened with dates and come in a variety of delicious flavors. Now I want to caution you that you will likely not like every flavor. Some may be more preferable than others. Overall, Thunderbird Real Food Bars are filling and taste great. If you a fan of the use of dates as natural sweetener as much as I am than you will likely enjoy Thunderbird bars.
Bearded Brothers Food Bars
Another ‘real’ food, naturally sweetened granola bar option is Bearded Brothers Food Bars. Bearded Brothers Food Bars are vegan, USDA Organic and Verified Non-GMO. They come in a variety of flavors that perfectly paired. See for yourself. Flavors include Raspberry Lemon, Maca Chocolate, Vanilla Pecan, Ginger Peach, Coconut Mango, Blueberry Vanilla and Almond Butter Chocolate. I must say that every flavor of Bearded Brothers Food Bars is delicious. They made the perfect pairings. Pick any flavor and you are sure to become a Bearded Brothers Food Bar fan.
LivBars
LivBars are another exceptional healthy cereal bar option. What stands out about this bar is that its made of superfoods. LivBars bars pack a mean energy boost. They are USDA Organic, Non-GMO, soy free and corn free. They come in two delicious vegan flavors including Ginger Lemon Turmeric and Lemongrass Cherry Matcha. Also, like the previous options LivBars are made with ‘real’ food and are naturally sweetened with dates. Can you say nutrient dense?
Whether for camping, hiking, running, cycling, or rushing off to work or school these healthier options are perfect for active, on-the-go people. They are filling, made from real food so that you get all of the goodness of nature’s nutrients. Most importantly, contrary to the commercial brands they are nutritionally dense bars with a great carb/protein ratio that keep you fueled and satisfied between meals.
So now that you know that not all cereal bars are created healthy which brands will you choose?
