BEWARE OF THE PROTEIN BARS

311- BEWARE OF PROTEIN BARS They are quick and convenient, but unfortunately often loaded with calories. Generally speaking, the more it tastes like a candy bar, the less healthy it is. Despite the advances made by supplement manufacturers, most of the healthier protein bars (i.e. low fat and low carb) don't taste all that great (chalk and cardboard being the most popular descriptions). Conversely, the better-tasting bars are usually loaded with fat and/or carbohydrates. Unless you are on a strict pre-contest diet, your best bet is probably a middle-of-the-road bar (tastes OK and is not too loaded with fat and carbs). The best high-protein, lowfat, low-sugar bar is the Nitro'Tech bar.
