Not all bars have fruit juice from concentrate. If I buy a bar I go for bars without fruit juice from concentrate. Therefore, it provides a healthy way to increase your energy, whether at home during work or while traveling. Please note due to supply issues sometimes they will be only 3 flavours instead of 4 but there still will be 60 bars

They are smashed, juiced, filtered, the water is evaporated and you are left with a high sugar, no fibre, no nutrient concentrated liquid. This is transported (concentrated juice weighs less so it's cheaper) and combined with water, at its destination, to make apple juice. And that's apple juice from concentrate. Concentrated juice from other fruit go through the same process. However, we forget that fruit also contains sugar. Yes, indeed the natural sugar is processed by the body in a different way. But what we did is take out the refined sugar and replace it with loads of sugar from fruit, such as dates. You must remember that fruit are also sugar. And dried fruitare very high in sugar. Bars are very easy for transportation and they don’t get mushy and messy like fruit do. They also take up a lot less space. Therefore I have two options I go for, when I need to:I seldom have bars, almost never, and there is one main reason. We, health and fitness professionals, tell you all the time to eat unprocessed foods, right? And then we recommend bars, shakes and powders. Those are processed. I don’t mind them, not at all. My point is don’t say eat unprocessed and recommend processed. Does that make sense? The other day I posted on my Facebook timeline a picture with bars, such as paleo bars, quinoa bars, fruit bars and others.

Is it natural ingredients such as nuts or is it protein powder which? To turn your food into powder or make a compact bar it needs to go through a lot of processing. And they use the same products you’d buy from your store, they don’t use organic, some do but most don’t. And even if they did they go through so many processes that they lose whatever was in them in the first place.

One of my followers asked what to look for in bars. And I thought the answer to this question will help everyone. This is what I pay attention to for myself, I don’t buy them but I like to keep up to date with what’s out there: Each bar of Frutina constitutes one of your five a day, strengthens your immune system with natural antioxidants, and is a source of dietary fibers that help maintain good eating habits.
