Custom energy bars

You’ve had it up to here when it comes to deciphering nutrition facts. Why can’t portion sizes be the same across the board so we can actually make accurate comparisons? And more importantly why is it that our local Health Nut stocks a ton of products with saturated fats, artificial flavors, and hydrogenated oils – ludacris! Unbeknownst to most moms those so-called healthy granola snacks are most mass produced,over-processed, and full of sugar. Despite knowing this we still often find ourselves relying on energy and granola bars to fuel us through our day (especially when we’re in a rush), so when we discovered Element Bars.

We knew we hit the nutrition jackpot.

The made-to-order energy bars are full of ingredients tailored to your taste and diet and include nothing that you can’t pronounce. High in protein, filled with plenty of fiber, low in saturated fat, and using only all-natural ingredients, the nutritious bars you create can include everything from nuts and dried fruits, to Omega-3 and soy protein boosts. You can even pick the texture of your bar (oaty, chewy, crispy, datey). Best of all with every ingredient you add you can see how that particular ingredient affects the overall nutritional value of your bar.

What a relief. Now we can officially boycott our faux neighborhood health food store.
