Are granola bars healthy and good for dieting?
The quakers chewy granola bars that are 25% less sugar have 5 grams in sugar, and I read somewhere that granola bars that have 5 or more grams of sugar is bad, and should opt for less than 5 grams of sugar granola bars. I've been on a diet and I've been eating granola bars in my diet (not the only thing I eat, of course!).
Which is the best, Quakers, Health Valley, or Nature Valley's granola bars? And is it okay if I eat granola bars in my diet, especially the quaker ones, or should I switch because it has 5 grams of sugar in it?

i seriously doubt it; they are just glorified expensive candy bars.........here's a good rule of thumb on how to check for sugar content; a teaspoon of sugar has 5 grams of sugar; so if a product has, say 25 grams of sugar, thats FIVE TEASPOONS OF SUGAR your'e eating....no one needs that much refined sugar at one time.........try eating fresh fruit and drinking more water and low calorie diet beverages..and more fresh vegetables (as in a salad!!) wouldnt hurt your weight loss plans either!!

I found the book to be very informative and easy to read.
I've lost 17 pounds in 12 days, I'm just concerned that I'm losing too much weight, too quickly. I will admit I haven't followed the guide exactly. I'm not sticking perfectly to the listed foods and meal plans (but mostly) and doing very little exercise, but the weight keeps flying off.
It clearly works and if I'd followed it exactly I think it would scare the living daylights out of me because of the amount that I'd lose. So thanks again for the information. I've never purchased anything like this before because they are usually full of trash, but 3WD has been a pleasant surprise.
Get started today!

Paleo diet its a diet based around eating real food unprocessed and organic. Learn here https://tr.im/M1gP6
Whether you have or not, what you probably don't realize is that it’s the fastest growing “diet” in the world right now. From celebrities, chefs, elite athletes. Even fitness experts is eager to try it or adopt it.
And for good reason, because no other diet or eating plan provides so many benefits so fast.

They taste good but are fattening. It is better to eat sweet foods with no added sugar. See this site below with lots of fat loss tips. At bottom it has food bars that are not fattening and it tells why.
