So, I'm sure we all know that there are TONS beyond TONS of so called health bars out there. But what im wondering is which ones are good, if any of them at all? Im looking for something that can replace my urge to buy a candy bar or something something that is sweet and maybe can be a snack but not make me feel like i've done something wrong in my diet. everytime i look them up i just get shipping information so Anyone have any suggestions or should i just stay away from those in general.

Reply from anne, Age 17 - 06/23/04 - IP#: 216.66.107.xxx what you want to look for is a bar high in fiber and protien and other vitamins. some aren't and yet they still say it's good for you! what i really like are the morning start bars, they have about 15g protien and 6g of fiber- now those are good for you. just compare next time you go shopping. you'll be suprised at what some have so little to give you and that others are so jam-packed with the good stuff. good luck! oh and pay attention to calories too!
Reply from Sara, Age 16 - 06/22/04 - IP#: 205.188.116.xxx I've heard that Luna bars are good as well. Just make sure that you eat a well balanced diet, because nutrition bars are a poor replacement for other foods. Also, if you eat too much of some vitamins and minerals, it can be very harmful, which is something to consider if you eat a bar high in some of those nutrients.
Reply from Sara, Age 16 - 06/22/04 - IP#: 205.188.116.xxx Avoid energy and protein bars and stuff unless you're working out heavily. They tend to be high-calorie. Slim-Fast bars are good for a weight-loss friendly snack, if you like the way they taste. Same with Atkins Advantage. Regular granola bars can be a good alternative to a candy bar if they have a reasonable amount of fat/calories. Quaker makes some really yummy ones that are dipped in chocolate. There are some good options out there, but overall, the best snacks are fresh fruits and veggies instead of prepackaged foods. Check out the nutrition label before you buy any kind of health bar, some of them really aren't any better for you than candy bars.
