Protein Bars

Protein bars are sold as a quick and convenient way to get more protein in your diet. They are also said to be a more nutritious and less caloric option than the kinds of snacks found in convenience stores, or meals in fast-food restaurants. Many people eat them as meal replacements, snacks, or as a way to aid recovery after a workout. The amount of protein in each bar varies from 10 to 20 grams, with those designed as sports supplements offering the most. Bars in this section use different types of protein – from whey (derived from cheese) to plant-based options designed for vegans and vegetarians.
