In a PureFit bar there are 18 grams of protein. This is a pretty decent
amount of protein for a nutrition bar.
Popular brands of protein bars are: Optimum Nutrition, Promax, ISS
Research, World Sports Nutrition, Supreme, Bio Nutritional, VPX, and Met Rx.
There are some nutrition bars that are made specifically for the dietary needs of children. Personally, I give my 12 year old son Clif Kid Zbar and he really likes it! Most importantly, these bars are very healthy, as they are 95% organic and contain 12 essential vitamins and minerals.
I buy my gluten-free bars at these websites: http://www.questproteinbar.com/ and http://www.nogii.com/#. Both
these bars are delicious!
Popular natural protein bars are: Quest Nutrition Natural Bars, Boundless
Nutrition Perfect Fit, Zone Perfect Nutrition bars, Labrada Nutrition Lean Bar,
and Nugo Slim bar.
Let's take a look at the nutritional differences between the two and then
you can decide which one is better for your dietary needs. Calories wise, the
Power Bar contains 250 calories and Cliff Energy Bars contain 230 calories. So
not a big difference here. Regarding the amount of carbs and fats in each
product, Power Bar contains 42 grams of carbs (20 gram of sugars) and 5 grams
of fat (2.5 grams of saturated fat).
Cliff Energy Bars contain 44 grams of carbs (23 grams of sugar) and 4.5 grams
of fats (1.5 gram of saturated fat). Both bars contain 5 grams of fiber, which
is 20% of the daily value of fiber for a 2,000 calories diet. Finally, Power
Bars contain 10 grams of protein, while Cliff Energy Bars contain 9 grams of
protein (protein is not really important for energy). So basically both bars
have very similar nutritional values.
