Are you someone who relies on food-on-the-go? Snack or energy bars, maybe smoothies or energy drinks? Gervaise and Jessica, the founders of ‘Why this Bar’, were always relying on snack bars to cure their sweet tooth, but also because they were on the go, all the time.
What they wanted was a plant based bar. This proved to be a more difficult task than expected however. Some bars although low in sugar and carbs, would often contain milk products and even worse artificial sweeteners. Then, there were the vegan bars, and they unfortunately are often higher in sugar, calories and even contain processed soy.
So, here you had a nutritionist and a dermatologist who decided to put their heads together. And, this bar was born. It was designed to not only satisfy that sweet tooth, or give you that boost of energy – it was also formulated to improve your skin.
About The SKINny Experts Bar
Here you have the best of both worlds – an amazing tasting bar that is also going to help promote healthy, nutrient rich, radiant skin and complexion. So, let’s have a closer look at why this bar makes sense!
Because the SKINny Experts Bar is plant based, the fiber source is plant based prebiotic fiber. This is naturally found in certain fruits and vegetables and are also being added to other foods to help promote the functional fiber. The addition of nuts and seeds in this bar also contrinute to the fiber content.
Fiber, is important when it comes to weight management but is also key in regulating hunger and blood glucose levels. Too much fiber can cause its own set of problems – but what you will find in one (1) bar here is almost one third of your daily recommended amount. Moderation is recommended – and should always be matched with the right amount of water intake too.
Oh, and we almost forgot to mention – these bars are also gluten-free. There are no animal products or by-products. Traces of cross contamination are possible, so if you have an extreme allergy to soy, wheat, eggs, milk, tree nuts and peanuts – please be mindful of this information.
Let’s chat GMO’s for a moment – these bars use many organic and non-GMO ingredients as much as possible. The kitchen in which these bars are made is not certified organic, so please know the transparency is important of this partnership which is why they have included all the details their consumers should know.
Each bar contains six (6) grams of protein, which is a great amount of plant based pea protein. They chose pea protein because it was important to them to stay away from whey and soy proteins. Although the bars do not need to be refrigerated, they should be stored in a cool dry place and only have a shelf life of four (4) months given their natural plant based ingredients.
How To Order The SKINny Experts Bar
Each box of the Skinny Experts bars come with twelve (12) bars. The only flavor available is Salted Caramel Cookie Dough and retails for $27.00.
Unfortunately, at this time, all the boxes were sold out.
Overall, if you are searching for a quality, plant based bar this is a great option. Being mindful of the sugar, carbs, (non)-animal proteins, etc. was important to the partnership, and their transparency speaks volumes.
Matching weight management with skin care and beauty needs is brilliant, and an avenue worth experiencing once they are back in stock of course! A bar suitable for any lifestyle, especially the healthy ones.
