ReBar 100% Organic Energy Bar, Veggie and Fruit, 1.76-Ounce Bars (Pack of 12) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's surprisingly good. Tastes like dried apples with a little raisin thrown in - I didn't really notice the veggie part. It smells pretty weird, and whenever I eat it around my friends, I get funny looks and wrinked noses, but the smell doesn't affect the taste at all! Though you don't want to replace actual fresh fruit and vegetables with this bar, I do think it's better than not having them at all, and I try to keep one in my bag for the really long days. I definitely prefer eating this to vending machine snacks or yet another fast food meal (the only choices near my school).

Erom Inc - Juvo Raw Meal, 600 g powder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What makes Juvo stand out from the others in my experience is that it is not too sweet. I put cinnamon in it which makes it taste even better. The only reason that I don't give it five stars is that it doesn't "stick" like the other higher protein raw meals. It only satiates me for 2-3 hours versus 3-4 with the others. However, it is really good when I'm in the mood for a carbohydrate breakfast or late night snack.

Living with Green Star Book - Elysa Markowitz Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The best book around for instructions on how to use your Green Star Juicer. The recipes in the book are oustanding, and easy to follow and to make. The author out-did herself. When you thumb through the book, you get the impression that all you need is only the Geen Star juicer and no other units for processing or making your meals. The more I follow the ideas for the recipes in the book, the more I believe this just might be true. A great book to have if you own a Green Star unit or any unit that uses dual augers to to get the full benifits of the book. An expensive book, but worth it to me.

ProBar Fruition Bar - 12 Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love the taste--and especially the texture--of these bars. They're moist and chewy, but not at all sticky or gooey. The texture is almost like a brownie, dense and chewy. And filling! As good as they are, you're not tempted to eat two, because one is satisfying enough.
The sweetness comes mainly from fruit sugars, but as I don't have a sweet tooth, it was slightly too much for me. However, I'm assuming that most people have a higher tolerance for sweetness than I do, so they'll probably find the level to be just right.
Of all the "healthy" bars I've tried, I have to say this one has the healthiest ingredients. And at only 160 calories with no saturated fat, I feel good about eating it, because it's not just a candy bar in disguise like most bars. My niece is used to there only being "healthy" food at Auntie's house, but I think this time she won't mind!

NuGo 10 Bar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you like a bar that tastes like nothing but compressed dates and figs, this is for you. Nuts? I didn't notice. Lemon? Huh? It had a slight bitter aftertaste but I didn't detect lemon. There are several really tasty raw bars on the market and for 12 grams of fat I'll go eat a handful of nuts or one of those. Pulverized figs and dates aren't fatty and aren't pleasurable to eat when expecting a healthy snack bar so for that high of fat, get something enjoyable! Ugh. Never again.

Nutiva Organic Hemp Protein Powder + Fiber, 16-Ounce Jars (Pack of 2) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)the fiber content of this "powder" is amazing but the the taste and texture are almost unbearable. while hemp is not going to taste as good (by good taste-i mean an absence of taste) as soy or whey, it should at least be better than this.
my gripes:
texture- this product should not be called a powder at all. it's more like the contents of a tea bag. the product should be more finely ground.
taste- this hemp has a stronger taste than other brands i have tried. i haven't found anything that really goes well with the "earthy" taste.
the good news:
fiber-i believe one serving provides 54% of the DV. that's 2-4 times as much as other hemp powders. this is why i gave this product 2 stars instead of one.
the good news about all hemp:
it's not highly processed like whey, soy, rice or other protein powders.

it's organic. most hemp powders are organic because hemp is naturally resistant to pests. ever wonder why you never see organic soy protein? hexane. this is the chemical (similar to gasoline) that must be used to isolate the protein from the bean.
it's raw. yay!
other brands:
i have tried nutiva, ruth's and living harvest. i currently use and recommend living harvest. it has the best consistency and taste. ruth's contains slightly more vitamins than living harvest but has a slightly stronger taste. nutiva is by far the worst with the strongest taste, grainiest texture and least vitamins.
i find that the best recipe for a hemp smoothie is just a frozen ripe banana (use one with lot's of brown freckles-it may be a little gooey going into the freezer but as with banana bread, those bananas have the best taste), 2-3 drops of vanilla extract, some soy or almond milk and a scoop of hemp. hemp doesn't really seem to agree with berries or non-creamy fruits.
bottom line-unless fiber is your #1 concern, go with another brand.

Larabar Fruit & Nut Food Bar, 1.8-Ounce Bars (Pack of 16) Review

Larabar Fruit and Nut Food Bar, 1.8-Ounce Bars (Pack of 16)

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Some people say these are a high fat , high calorie , high glycemic , glorified candybar. I say otherwise. Concerning fat, not all fats are equal , some being healthy . Since this bar is raw all of the fat,protein and sugar have not been denatured which means you get the full health benefit. As far as being high calorie , considering how nutrient dense these babies are I don't consider 200 calories high in calories at all. For me 200 calories is a perfect number allowing it to be used an nutrient dense snack or a quick meal on the go.
Concerning these supposedly being high glycemic , sure , if you were to eat the dates in these by themselves it would be , but the nuts in them bring the glycemic load of the entire bar way down , which is another benefit of the healthy fats in these bars , it allows for the sugars to be released slower and for it to digest slower making you feel full and satisfied longer.
As far as these not being any better than a candybar I say noway! No preservatives, no high fructose corn syrup , etc, in these babies , just a healthy combo of fruit and nuts. How many nutrients does a candybar have ? Now look at the nutrient in these , loaded with minerals . Also, unlike many other foods these aren't naturally low in nutrients and then "fortified" with man made vitamins and minerals to make them then appear healthy. All the nutrients in these are naturally occuring which gives you the benefits in a synergistic way where other healthy compounds such as flavonoids and phenols work together with naturally occurring vitamins and minerals.
People need to let go of the old dogma which makes them think all fat is bad but if it's sugar free then it MUST be good. If that were true then cotton candy , pepsi and skittles would all be great for ya !Fruit and nuts makes for a good healthy breakfast or snack. I'll eat my greens/green smoothies in the other meals of the day. A person shouldn't eat only fruit and nuts during the day but they shouldn't only eat greens either . These bars help make it easy to strike a balance in your diet on the go. Larabars, Pure bars , SmartMonkey bars and ThinkOrganic bars are all healthy brands of raw bars that amazon sells and all worth a try . Experiment and see what flavors you like best , or make your own !

Easy Sprout Sprouter - 1 set,(Frontier) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)By far and away this is the best all around sprouter. I start almost all* of my seeds in this sprouter, even if they will eventually be growing straight up like wheat grass and alfalfa sprouts. Due to the drainage holes, I can use a garden nozzle to force water through the soaked seeds to give them a thorough rinsing. You cannot do this with jars. I can start 1 - 2 cup of alfalfa seeds or any seeds that will eventually grow to the green stage and let them sprout a couple days before I transfer to individual pint sprouting containers. Garbanzos or other seeds that tend to get moldy with other methods can be sprouted with success. Again this is because you can force water through for a thorough rinse.
If you only want a quart of alfalfa sprouts, you better only use a teaspoon of seeds. With practice you can remove the hulls, too, for beautiful full grown sprouts.
*Only gelatinous seeds like chia and cress and very tiny seeds like teff require a different sprouting method.
