try simply protein bars lower carbs and sugar, minimal fats and 15g of protein:) I think Quest bars are extremely processed
Stumbled upon this whilst eating an Rx Bar. Although The Perfect Bar was my go-to, I never knew about the goMacro one. Going to check it out… thx!
What about carnations breakfast essentials 8 oz drink high protien. Would you recommend?
Hi. What about breakfast bars?
Are there any good ones you recommend for on the go? Thanks ��
No discussion of actual Nutritional values like protein, fat, or fiber amounts.
Y u acting like news binch? You’re correct, but the green screen fake news stuff is bizarre
Anyone else see the flash of the oven knob!? Around the 2:19 mark?
How is the perfect bar even considered a “protein” bar? There’s 200 calories from fat, 100 calories from carbs, and only 56 calories from protein ��
Excellent reviews and video! Your positive comments in regards to “MACROBAR” inspired me to try their products, which I ended up loving the taste.
Too bad some of your viewers here take time to write corrective comments about “nutritional facts”, but they do not bother to make their own videos.
Brush it off and keep up your amazing work.
Wait….doesn’t your body need a certain amount of sugar anyways?
the perfect bar tastes so good too. I checked the calories on the back after i ate it tho.. 330
Crunch bars are tasteless,the quest bars are made of play dough,spelling is off, the protein powder is good. The cliff bars are are not the healthiest but, they taste amazing, love all of them.thankyou for putting so much into this video!��
What do you think of B-Up and NoCow?
I know this is an old video, but I also want other viewer’s input so i commenting this
thank you, subscribed. what about Kirkland bars? also, how often should you eat protein bars?
Hey, I’m a new subscriber I love your videos. Just wondering what your stance is on ONE bars
I personally eat the blueberry muffin quest protein bar 21g of protein and 15g of fiber
i been using the Kirkland Signature protein bars cookie dough from Costco forever… has 7g fat, 190 cals, 1g sugar, 21g protein, 3g carbs with like only 10 ingredients.
What is a good bar to have just to have that filling in my belly just for like my lunch I eat veggies and chicken and rice and cereal with fruit in the bowl
Hi Mind Over Munch! I just spent 2 freakin’ hours reading labels on Amazon 2 find exactly what u r looking for in a protein bar: 20 g prot for 200ish cals, low to NO sugar, hi fiber & clean ingreds! I was dumb-founded & even took notes. Glad I found ur channel, have liked & subscribed. I will go back to Amazon to find & order ur suggestion. THANX SO MUCH!!!! Eager 2 see more of ur vids as ur channel is new & great 2 me!!
The first minute I didn’t hear much bc she’s so hot, but I’ve been doing this wrong all along:(
Wow you’re cute haha. Lovely video, I am impressed with your attention to detail to these ingredients and quality
Runners should ideally be eating a 1:4 ratio of protein to carbs post workout
Pause at 1:45 the face I make when I remember to do my homework at 4am
Fiber is not always a good thing. Sometimes they add artificial fiber in protein bars, cereal etc that is not as good as natural fiber from grains or fruit. You always have to check the ingredients list for the source of fiber if a high fiber content is important to you.
Was that a super fast picture of a timer? Between 2:20 and 2:30?
Have you ever seen a really fit dude who doesn’t have protein shakes daily or almost daily?
great video!

I love quest bars! Soooo expensive! Depending where I buy them there $2 a bar. I’ve seen them be up to $5 a bar
I love all your video’s! Thanks for all your informative videos:)
for the average person maybe, but if you lift heavy you need the extra
Thank you for this video, Alyssia!Through this video, I was able to find Garden of Life Performance Bars that are good fuel for me. Perfect Fat to Protein to Carb ratio that satiates me. I use these bars + a piece of fruit + water as a quick meal when I am on the go. This has been absolutly vital for me in my busy life -having a quick Celiac-Safe/DF/SoyFree/EggFree meal replacement that will keep me going. I am SO thankful especially as all the GF bars are just a bunch of sugar.
Thank you!
I love how honest you are! I hate those stupid Laura bars omg they are gross!
GET THESE GREAT DEALS ON PROTEIN BARS WHILE THEY LAST AT *BARGAIN WAGON** EBAY STORE CHECK OUT MY OTHER ITEMS TOO!!! https://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw=protein+bars&LH_PrefLoc=2&_ssn=barginwagon&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xprotein+.TRS0&_nkw=protein+&_sacat=0
Hi Margaret, I have a AnyG bar made with 3 ingredients plus flavor which keeps you full for 6 plus hours. Can I get you to do the review please?? Check out AnyG on F/B
I understand your perspective, but the amount of brown rice syrup in gomacro is over the top.
I appreciate the perspective. Perfect bars are my favorite.
My favourite one is NuGo Slim, it has 160 calories, 17g of protein and 2-3g of each sugar and fat. Sweetened with natural chicory root it’s the most calorie-efficient protein bar I found.
I like how she says fruits and vegetables together, as if most fruits are healthy, yet says to stay away from sugar… She did not explain anything in a very insightful way, just repeated the same thing different ways. Obviously people arent relying on protein bars and shakes for food. she also doesn’t mention fat aside from it being added in bars… noone adds fat to bars, and noone adds unhealthy fats to shakes
2:21 wtf theres a picture of a oven temp knob that flashes for a fraction of a second had to slow down the video to.25 speed and pause and unpause to see what flashed and supprised nobody in the comments section talked about this
You need to try ONE BARS ONE bars are the best literally all of them have 20g protein,95mg of sodium and 1 gram of sugar they are better than quest for sodium
When you talked about quest bars. Isn’t soluble corn fiber just fiber from corn… your probably talking about IMO which was in there old recipe.
How is Isomalto-oligosacchrides bad? isn’t it essentially fibre?
Anyone else use protein bars/supplements to curb sweet tooth?:( Quest bars + Oh Yeah One protein bars are my fav!
My all time favorite protein bar is the carb killa all of their flavors are amazing https://amzn.to/3fbhjcw
Thanks for the research, very informative. I think that the quality of protein is just as important as the quantity. Most protein bars contain soy protein isolate, which is a heavily processed and very unhealthy form of soy. Hexane, a gasoline byproduct, is used to soak the soybeans, stripping out the beneficial nutrients and fiber. Consuming it has been linked to neurotoxins that damage brain tissue.
$2 for protein bar is same cost as fries so who the f cares.
Eggs, chickpeas, unsalted almonds, plain yogurt, porridge…
I just found your channel and it is amazing! How did I not find it earlier? Your content is fantastic and the information you are giving is really well said! Looking forward to future videos!
the power crunch bar is low on carbs, high on proteins and fat which is good because your body will use the fat for energy instead of carbs.
I’m vegan, I can tell you it’s hard to find very high protein bars. I use vegan protein powder to supplement or I eat the goMacro bars
Can protein bars help a person gain weight? I have always been underweight due to a high metabolism and a disability. I really want to find a way to safely gain weight because I can’t gain pounds with just eating regular weight gain foods. I’ve tried everything and if protein bars can help me it would be very convenient and easier than what I’ve tried in the past. Thanks! ❤️
Why does everything have to be so deceitful.. thanks for clearing it up.. shouldn’t have to.. especially when all people want is to be healthy.. lots of deceit..
To save your time go directly to 19:50 to know the best bars, thanks me later:)
they’re all still just sugar. eat more animal fat, less sugar
Sorry but I read the ingredients in a gomacro bar and it had over 13 Ingredients and that not bad but 26% sugar or 27 gram of sugar sorry but I’ll stick with rxbar at least it simple ingredients
Thomas DeLauer does a better rating of protein bars on his channel, from inside Costco. He’s more knowledgeable. He rated the RX bars as one of the better ones. What I’ve learned is you can’t do better than the nutritional advice from bodybuilders themselves.
That quest bar must keep you satisfied XD
Oh and why didn’t you talk about saturated fat as a negative. I mean, isn’t saturated fat like the absolute worst?
the gomacro bars are my favorite protein bars and i was so afraid you were gonna say they were bad for you.
I would eat three cliff bars a day until finding out they are mostly sugar!! So funny that you mentioned post postpartum as I’m currently feeding my 1 mo and eating a perfect bar. trying to loose weight and still eat for two is a challenge when you want to make sure your baby is getting the nutrition they need while also trying to regain that confidence you lost from gaining 50 pounds. Also, being expected to eat all the time like in pregnancy is unrealistic, protein bars or smoothies seem to be the answers. GoMacro bars will definitely be on next shopping list!
Very informative video. You didn’t mention Premier Bars. Thank you for the comparisons.
The go Macro bar is my favourite! So perfect for when i need a quick snack or in a rush. Thanks for sharing!
Hey Margaret! I’ve been exploring new bars recently, have you heard of the Zone Macro bars? if so, where do they fit on your scale?
Now let me ask you something, are you certified to give us this tips? LOL
You are such a sweetheart! I could be having a depressing day but when I see your videos I stop being depressed.
Amazing video. Thank you Alyssia.
I was wondering though how the Amazon’s brand Amfit compares to these. Not sure if it’s available for you, but here’s the nutrition’s table: i.imgur.com/7EcbIP2.jpg
Love your informative videos. I just newly subscribed to your videos so I’m not sure if you have done one yet but can you do a video on trail mix bars or fruit and nut bars, and breakfast biscuit and soft baked on brands such as nature valley, kind bars, belvita, multigrain, and other brands. Thanks.
did anybody notice the oven temp setter at 2:21? no, just me ok.
Can anyone explain why we do assume or should assume a priori that all GMO’s are bad for you?
Just bought two rx bars today….Thanks so so much for this. I won’t buy anymore. When they are weird on the phone that is all I need to know.
Try the “one” protein bars! 210 cals, 20 grams protein, 1 gram sugar!
She speaking out of her ass about the kind bars just buy two of them that or I’ll buy the double chocolate special k
Thanks girl, I’ve been having trouble looking for the best protein bars for quite some time now. Took notes from this one
Hello, I am wondering if I could interview you. I’m creating an energy bar company and I would be honored if I could pick your brain about Nutrition in energy bars.
I had a Quest Smores protein bar sitting in my car on a hot day. When I came back from my work out, the bar was nice and soft and the chocolate was all melted. It tasted much better that way.
Forgot to mention that Perfect Bars have four certifications on the package!:)
I did some research on your favorite bar and its first main ingredient is brown rice Syrup which is worse than normal sugar, higher in calories and gives you more of a appetite to eat more
The only benefit I see is that there is no fructose in it
Quest cinnamon roll 21g protien bars taste like a mouthful of sand.but i aint in it for the taste.in it for the gains��
I’ve tried Quest bars and sadly I’ve trashed every flavor I’ve tried, I really was hoping I would like them. I like RX Bars best although it does have dates ie sugar but I only eat a third of the bar at a time, maybe not even that much. Thank you for your input������
HOW DO YOU NOT LIKE LARABARS
LARABARS ARE THE BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN SMH
I’m surprised you didn’t cover the Nature Valley protein bars. I have those when I’m in a pinch and as more of a treat than a protein supplement, but I generally go for the Think bars when I can find them. I’ve never tried Quest, but I guess I’ll have to buy a few the next time I’m at the store. I love Think but the lack of fiber was always a bit disappointing. Thank you!
My co workers couldnt figure out why i always complained about the “healthy” options at our store. All the protein bars we had were bad. I would just go to walmart and stock up on quest bars to bring with me as my snack.
‘We want things things that come from our kitchen and not the lab’
My kitchen is filled with instant noodles and chocolate, are u fucking sure about that woman?
do they realize some yogurt has more added sugar than some protein bars��
She’s right protein from meat is better… but I can’t carry around steaks everywhere I go lady
Awesome video! I really want to try all of them.. it’s pretty hard to get since I live in Korea. I have tried 12 flavors of Quest bars also, surprisingly some of them were really really good! https://youtu.be/Ah7FArx5YHs🙂
I have trouble getting in enough carbs, so I rock clif bars usually. I get enough protein from my shakes and meats. Quest bars max my fiber intake way too quickly, so I stay away from them.
Brilliant video with great explanation! Certifications are amazing, but make sure the certifications have ethical standards! Gluten, artificial sweeteners, indigestible pesticides have a at one point been certified as fine.
Perfect bars are a lifeblood for my athletes during the offseason.
Man, I just cannot do quest bars. They taste so fake to me. I have tried both warm and not. I like rxbars. I know they are a bit higher in sugar, but I just really can’t do quest. I wish I liked them
I’m so happy that you are talking about this ��There are soooooo many fitness food supplements out there. So confusing!! That’s why I started my own Fit Food review YouTube channel.
The problem with protein bars today is they are tooooo dammmmm sweet.
They adding caramel and chocolate and so much added sugar. I hate it.
These company’s need to stop making overly sweet protein bars. They should have more grams of protein than sugar.
It’s gotten rediculous. You might as well eat a snickers bar.
Any advice for good protein bars for someone who’s gluten free?
I knew GoMacro was going to get a high rating when you fed it to your baby.
What about supplement drinks like ensure or boost or soylent
