Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)yummy. some of the best tasting protein bars available. great for low-carb dieters or diabetics if you believe in the theory that "net carbs" (carbs minus fiber, etc.) should be counted instead of just "carbs". no artificial sweeteners like sucralose, etc., which is good if you think those things may cause cancer...the low "net carbs" are due to a high amount of "sugar alcohols". these bars are best found for less than $1 per bar or $15 per 15 bar case.
ABOUT SUGAR ALCOHOLS
Sugar alcohols are usually incompletely absorbed into the blood stream from the small intestines which generally results in a smaller change in blood glucose than regular sugar (sucrose). This makes them popular sweeteners among diabetics and low-carb dieters. As with many other incompletely digestible substances (dietary fiber), overconsumption can lead to bloating, diarrhea and flatulence because they are not absorbed in the small intestine. Doesn't happen to me... Good luck.
