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.
