Obesity is a huge thing in the US, and the “average” waistline for an adult female is 37.5 inches. In 2013, statistics showed 154.7 million American Adults were considered over weight or obese (I happen to be one of those that’s obese). One reason obesity is so high is because we adults find it has become easier and cheaper to grab quick fast food meal for the family, then to cook a healthier meal at home. We also tend to skip meals and snack more through-out the day. The problem being the snacks a large part of Americans are reaching for are those that are salted, sweet, and loaded with calories and processed products.
Thankfully, companies are seeing there’s a big problem with the way we eat and are finding alternatives to serve up these snacks in a more healthier option. It still falls back on the consumers to only consumer proper serving sizes and to know when not to snack. Just because you have found a “healthier” alternative, over eating on the serving size will give you more calories than what your body needs.
We are Americans need to start eating to live and not living to eat.
I was glad to see one of my favorite companies (Balance Bars), has come out with a new product that has 160 calories per bar. Balance Bare Bars come in three different flavors Mixed Berry Nut, Sea Salt Caramel Nut and Sweet & Spicy Nut. They’re non-GMO, gluten free, soy free, vegetarian and certified kosher dairy. The Mixed Berry Nut and Sweet & Spicy Nut bars are also dairy free and vegan friendly.
When I received my samples in the mail, I had to try them out. I was a bit iffy on the Sweet & Spicy Nut. However, it turns out this was my favorite one, it wasn’t to sweet or to spicy, it was perfect. The Balance Bare Bars has the perfect combination of fruits, nuts, and seeds. If you love fruit, nuts, and seeds you will love these! I had to hid them so the family didn’t eat them all on me, yes, that is how good these new balance bars are!
Balance Bare Bars are the perfect snack to keep handy in your purse. This will allow you to grab a quick snack while on the run, and you can avoid making quick stops into your favorite fast food joint to grab a quick bite to eat. Balance Bars have a 40-30-30 ratio making them the perfect snack bar for those on the go.
Don’t let the busy holiday season add inches to your waistline, instead stock up on Balance Bare Bars and when Summer comes, you’ll be glad you did!
Balance Bare Bars suggested retail price is $1.69 a bar, you can purchase these directly from Balance Bar, by using their site store or you may also purchase them on Amazon
