Is PowerBar good for your health?

Question

I want to gain weight, so I have to resort to eating PowerBar: Proteinplus. I was wondering whether those bars are good for my health or not?

If they aren't healthy, can you please recommend me some protein bars/shakes that are more healthy?

Thanks.

Oh, it's the one with "Reduced Sugar, by 94%"

Answer 1

i think they are

Answer 2

ok im pretty familar with this stuff being into the gym and all when you say you want to put on weight do you mean muscle or i have 2 make wieght for football i need 2 gain. Well honestly a power bar is like 10 grams of protein and is not the best of tasting if your looking 2 bulk up in muslce i suggest a bar atleast 20 grams i take either pure protein bars or promax bars. i suggest alot of chicken fish steak and shakes

Answer 3

Yes they are, i have been using them for a while. If your looking for less sugar, just get the reduced sugar kind. They have maybe 1g less of protein. If your looking to get big and this is your protein source, i would advise looking into some protein shakes.

Answer 4

How much sugar is in it? Most of those awful thngs are loaded with sugar. They taste like hoooookey. Have a small handful of nuts and some dried fruit. Better for you.

Answer 5

Look at the ingredients - one of the first ingredients is CORN SYRUP - probably one of the worst things you could put in your body!! Yes, it does have a lot of added vitamins, but you could also get that from an actual vitamin. I eat protein bars from BioGenesis - yummy and no crappy ingredients - also wheat/gluten/dairy soy free!!!

Answer 6

if you want to gain weight, workout more.
muscle weights more than fat
as a result of working out, eat high carbs or proteins
fruits and veggies are good too

Answer 7

I would guess they are, my dad eats them all the time and he's healthy.

Answer 8

they have'nt killed me yet and I eat a lot of them because I love the peanut butter one's and I dont eat. that is my meal
