You reach for a protein bar and think: healthy, protein-rich, perfect for in-between? Not so fast. ☝️ Many bars look like a fitness snack but are actually sugar or calorie bombs in sportswear. To ensure you don't fall into the protein bar trap when buying, we'll show you what to look for on the ingredient list – because not everything that screams "protein" is automatically good for you.
In this guide, you'll learn which 3 points you should absolutely check on the ingredient list of protein bars. Plus, you'll get an overview of all More Protein Bars – so you can snack smart instead of falling into the protein bar trap.
3 ingredients you should pay attention to
Sounds healthy, looks "fit" – but is it really? Not every protein bar is a smart snack. Some are more like small calorie bombs with a fitness label. To avoid falling into the protein bar trap, pay attention to these 3 things when buying bars.
1. Not all protein is created equal
Probably the most common misconception about protein bars is: "More protein is always better." Why is that a myth? Because it also depends on the quality of the protein. A high protein content is of little use if low-quality sources are used that the body cannot properly utilize. High-quality sources include milk proteins (whey, casein), as they provide a complete amino acid profile. Our More Protein Bars & Satisbites contain milk protein as their main protein source, making them ideal as high-protein snacks.
2. Sugar and its many names
A high protein content is of little benefit for your goals if the bar also contains excessive amounts of added sugar. For the layman, this isn't always directly recognizable on the ingredient list. It appears under names such as glucose syrup, fructose, sucrose, lactose, maltodextrin, or molasses – and significantly impacts your calorie count. Better: choose bars without added sugar. Look for the keyword "no added sugar". 👉 Tip: According to the Health Claims Regulation, the statement "low sugar" may only be made if the sugar content is less than 5 g/100 g. The More Protein Bars & Satisbites contain a maximum of 3.7 g of sugar per 100 g and therefore fall into the "low sugar" category.
3. Functional ingredients
Don't just pay attention to protein content and calorie information: your protein bar can do more! An advantage that not every bar offers: functional ingredients such as glucomannan. This dietary fiber from the konjac root can – in sufficient quantities* – demonstrably support weight reduction.* Our More Protein Satisbites contain 1 g of glucomannan per bar, which can support you in achieving your goals.*
