Nutrition Food Bars

Nutrition food bars provide a complete meal or snack in a very convenient form for times during the day that you are unable to eat a complete, balanced whole-foods based meal. Whether your job requires you to travel a lot, you have a busy meeting schedule, or you are just too busy to prepare a nutritious meal, there are times that a quick meal in a "candy bar" form is very convenient to have available. Sometimes it can save you from a trip to the unhealthy candy vending machine! As with the Meal Replacement Powders (MRP), nutrition food bars offer an excellent macronutrient (protein, carbohydrates, and fat)  and micronutrient (vitamins and minerals) profile in a convenient food bar form. These bars are useful for in-between meal healthy snacks or as part of a meal itself. By eating at regular intervals throughout the day, you will avoid the intense hunger which often leads to overeating and unhealthy snacking. We carry several different bars which you should choose based on their features and you needs. If you are following the Zone diet, the ZonePerfectTM Bars from Barry Sears, Balance Bars, or PR*Ironman Bars may be your best choice. If you are following a low-fat diet, then the Promax Bar, Power Bars or MET-Rx bars may be a better choice for you. If you are primarily interested in supplementing your diet with high quality protein while you eat whole food carbohydrates in whole-food form (for example: fruits and vegetables), then you might be interested in the Pure Protein Bar. Whatever your needs, Netrition offers a nutrition bar to help you achieve your goals!

Nutrition Facts

ZonePerfect™ Nutrition Bars are the easiest, most convenient way to enter the Zone. Balanced with the correct combination of protein, carbohydrate and fat, the bars trigger the burning of stored body fat for the next four to six hours. In addition, ZonePerfect™ Nutrition Bars are fortified with 19 critical vitamins and minerals as well as the unique Omega-3 essential fatty acid EPA, which is found only in coldwater fish.

You can use ZonePerfectTM Nutrition Bars in a couple of ways. First, the ZonePerfectTM Nutrition Bar can be used as a very handy meal replacement or Zone snack (a snack is one-half of a bar ) for those times when you can't make or find an appropriate Zone meal or snack, such as when you are traveling, during meetings or just during extended periods between meals. Eating a whole ZonePerfectTM bar will keep you in the Zone for four to six hours, while half a bar will provide two to three hours of hormonal control.

An additional use of the ZonePerfectTM bars is to enhance athletic performance. By eating one-half of a ZonePerfectTM bar 30 to 45 minutes prior to any training or athletic event, you will catalyze the hormonal cascades that enable your body to burn fat faster, increase the productivity of your workout and perform at a higher physical level with greater intensity. For optimal results, you should consume another half of a ZonePerfectTM nutrition bar immediately after your workout or during the half-time of any athletic competition.

Another Zone Diet Recommendation: Don't settle with rolled oats in your oatmeal anymore, use McCann's Steel Cut Oats for better taste, nutrition and health!

PowerBar
Power Bar PerformancePowerBar® Performance

Fueling your training and competition is what drives us. As a trusted source of sports nutrition for 10K runners, Ironmen, Olympians and Lance Armstrong, PowerBar® Performance bars are specially formulated with the ideal blend of natural ingredients for world class energy and peak athletic performance. So whether you’re an avid marathoner or just looking for long-lasting fuel while you power through your Sunday bike ride, you can be sure that PowerBar® Performance bars will deliver the healthy edge you need.

Designed by athletes, for athletes, each low-fat, nutritious PowerBar® Performance bar contains a unique, easily digestible blend of ingredients engineered specifically for the nutritional demands of endurance athletes.

Developed to be high in carbohydrates, the body’s most efficient source of fuel, each PowerBar® Performance bar packs 25 grams of complex carbs. That means you can easily satisfy the energy demands of your favorite endurance sports. Add to that our exclusive vitamin formulation which includes 100% DV of the antioxidant vitamins C and E and 100% DV of all eight B-complex vitamins to aid energy metabolism, plus 9-10 grams of high quality protein to help muscles recover and rebuild. These ingredients all add up to superior sports nutrition in a convenient, no-melt, no-crumble bar that fuels your personal best, no matter where your adventures take you.


BALANCED ENERGY, OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE

The original PowerBar was created by an Olympic marathoner to provide an easily digestible source of energy to help improve athletic performance. Since 1986, PowerBar has been in the business of sports nutrition for high performance athletes.

Here's a look at energy-how to get it, how to keep it and how the PowerBar® Performance bar's optimal blend of ideal ingredients provides the lasting energy your body demands for the long haul.

Learn the truth about your energy bar. With all the energy bars on the market, it's hard to know sometimes which ingredients really matter. What are the right blends of macronutrients? Should your bar be high protein? Low carb? Can you really tell the difference in which bar you use when it comes to training, or on race day?

According to top coaches like Chris Carmichael, coach of four-time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong, diets high in carbohydrates, moderate in protein and low in fat actually do help improve performance. So the right bar with the right blend really can help on race day, and in training. Because of their perfect blend of high carbs, moderate protein, essential vitamins and minerals and low fat-and because PowerBar® Performance bars are so digestible they can even be consumed right before a race-PowerBar® Performance bars are the only bars Chris Carmichael recommends.

Want high performance energy? Load up on carbs. Performance athletes have long known an essential truth about energy: carbs are the body's best source of fuel. Better than protein, better than fat, carbs efficiently supply the energy performance athletes need-in training or on race day. Scientific studies have shown that eating carbohydrates before exercise actually improves performance.

During light to moderate exercise, the body relies primarily on fat for energy. But during intense exercise, the body turns to glycogen-and lots of it-to keep up a steady energy supply. Pedal up that hill or train for that marathon and you're going to use your glycogen stores. And the answer to replenishing glycogen supply lies in carbs.

Carbs are so important for energy during performance and after for re-filling depleted glycogen stores, endurance athletes actually need 60-70% of their daily calorie intake while training or on race day to come from carbs. That's why the PowerBar® Performance bar, the original energy bar, has the highest percentage of total calories from carbohydrates of any leading performance energy bar.

Get energized with vitamins and fight free radicals too. If carbs are essential for fuel, vitamins and minerals have their own vital place in sports nutrition. To convert food into energy, your body needs B-vitamins. It also uses antioxidants like C & E to help fight free radicals those potentially harmful by-products of normal body metabolism and exercise. The mineral calcium helps support strong bones while magnesium also helps produce energy.

PowerBar® Performance is the only leading performance energy bar with 100% of the Daily Value for eight B-vitamins and also contains 100% of the Daily Value for vitamins C & E. Plus the bars provide 230 mg of electrolytes to help maintain hydration. All told, PowerBar® Performance bars are among the most fortified energy bars on the market.

Add some protein for muscle development and repair. An adequate supply of protein is essential for the body to help repair, maintain and grow human tissues and muscles. The reason? Proteins are made up of and supply the body with amino acids. The body then uses these amino acids to build muscles, enzymes, hormones and even antibodies.

There's only so much protein the body can store and most of it is limited to muscle. If the body needs protein and hasn't gotten it from food, it will go straight to the body's own stores-from existing muscle tissues. Every time the body digs into its own protein stores, muscle tissue breaks down. Then you have to go back to work building them up again.

PowerBar® Performance bars contain high-quality milk protein, and offer a convenient source of the protein your body needs to help build and repair muscle tissue.

Make sure the bar's low-fat, digestible and versatile. When it's time to turn up the heat in competition or just power through your daily workout and you're looking for energy, the last thing you need is to get weighed down by your bar. What you do need is a bar that's easily digestible, low in fat and packed with energy.

That's where PowerBar® Performance bars come in. You can eat them on race day - before, during or after. They'll give you energy without wearing you down. Plus the bar won't break, crumble or melt, so whether you're in the heat of a triathlon or on the cold slopes of Park City, your PowerBar® Performance bar will be there for you, ready to provide the convenient energy you need.

PowerBar® Performance. The right energy for any challenge. With all nutrition - and especially sports energy nutrition - balance is everything. PowerBar® Performance was developed to achieve the perfect blend of high carbs, moderate protein and low fat, plus the vitamins and minerals you need to help protect cells from damaging free radicals and maintain energy production. It's the bar trusted by world class athletes for everyday training and the demands of competition, so you know PowerBar® Performance delivers top sports nutrition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the Premier Protein Bar?
A: Designed by exercise physiologists, food chemists, and athletes,the Premier Protein Bar is a convenient source of quality protein without excess sugars. Now available in these flavors Chocolate Peanut, Rocky Road, and Yogurt Peanut Crunch.

Q: Who uses the Premier Protein Bar?
A
: The Premier Protein Bar is designed for a wide variety of people. Customers range from world class athletes, individuals with blood sugar disorders and active people looking to add quality protein to their diet.

Q: When do I use the bar?
A: The Premier Protein Bar can be used in many ways. It is best used post workout within one hour after exercise.This is when the body absorbs nutrients best. It can also be used as a snack between meals or as an occasional meal replacement.

Q: Why does the Premier Protein Bar have thirty grams of protein?
A: Protein is necessary for the building and recovery muscle.Thirty grams is about the same amount of protein as you would find in a chicken breast. Our combination of proteins,low carbohydrates and low fat will provide you with about three hours of meal satisfaction.

Q: What type of protein does the bar have?
A: Caseinate and hydrolyzed whey protein. Combined, they create a complete protein and amino acid profile. These proteins were chosen for many reasons, including; quality, taste, texture and shelf life.

Q: Why is the bar low in carbohydrates?
A: By keeping the bar low in carbs and sugars the total calorie count can remain low as well. The bar is designed as a protein supplement, not an energy bar. Because of its low carbs and sugar composition it has a low rating on the glycemic index, allowing blood sugar levels to remain stable. When blood sugar levels are stable your energy level will be more stable, thus eliminating the energy "roller coaster effect". In addition, since carbohydrates are basically sugar and water, the body will not store as much water so a leaner appearance can be maintained.

Q: Why does the Premier Protein Bar have fat?
A: Fat is a necessary dietary component. It provides meal satisfaction, transports vitamins A,D,E and K, and stabilizes blood sugar levels by slowing down the entry of carbohydrates into the bloodstream. The RDA for fat intake is less than 30% of total calories. The Premier Protein Bar is low in fat with only 17-23% of calories coming from fat.

Pure Protein BarWorldwide Sport
Pure Protein Bars

The original high protein bar that is relatively low in carbs and fat. These delicious protein bars give you over 15 essential nutrients including calcium.  Pure Protein Bars are high in protein and relatively low in carbohydrates.  Perfect for dieters looking for a mouth-watering way to get their daily nutrition.

Products that have a high glycemic index trigger an undesirable insulin response. This reaction results in an excess of insulin in the bloodstream and directly causes an increase in fat storage. Conversely, products that are low glycemic do not elevate insulin levels. Low glycemic products do reduce excess fat storage, increase and sustain energy levels and increase mental alertness. It is important to note that just because a product is low in carbohydrates does NOT mean it has a low glycemic index. The type of carbohydrates and their relationship to the other ingredients in the product dictates a low glycemic index rating and how they affect the human body. The only way to determine a glycemic rating for any product is to subject it to specific analytical testing.
