    Protein bars are essentially a better alternative to a candy bar. When I used to eat protein bars, I never had more than 2-3 a week it was just a snack when I wanted something sweet, but still with some nutritional value. Also they're extremely constipating, if you do eat those protein bars and have more than 1, you MUST drink a FULL glass of water with it. Glad the internet was wrong and you didn't die. :)

    I'm a fan of protein/healthy/raw bars, but only the real "clean" ones. And I can easily imagine myself living on them, but if i had a nice variety of them instead of most bars based on dates. They are my real comfort food and I like that they are like astronaut/bunker food that u can stock yourself with. And I used to take them to trips but usually turns out I don't need that much food and when I do I chose to buy local (to try smth new) if there is a possibility. When I'm in a new country or shop I always check for such bars that I haven't tried

    I use to work at GNC for 4 years. To this day I stopped buying any supplements except for vitamins and the occasional protein powder from optimum nutrition (which by the way has sucralose which is a very bad artificial sugar) Most of the supplement industry feeds off the insecurities of people. About 80% of supplements is trash. You’d benefit more from just eating Whole Foods. Most of those protein bars have more preservatives and artificial sugar than actual candy bars. Oh and most of them taste really bad.

    00:14 🍽 The video explores a week-long experiment of eating only protein bars to assess their impact on energy levels, mood, and physical well-being. 01:12 🍫 The experiment starts with a high-protein breakfast, which includes a meal replacement protein bar with 30g of protein and 28g of sugar. 02:28 🍽 Throughout the day, various protein bars and snacks are consumed, with mixed reviews on taste and satisfaction. 06:37 💩 Constipation becomes a concern, leading to a search for constipation-relieving foods like whole grains and fruits. 11:20 🥘 A non-protein meal consisting of whole grains, apples, and healthy fruits is introduced to relieve digestive discomfort. 15:35 🍽 The repetitiveness of the protein bar diet results in Restless feelings, exhaustion, and difficulty focusing. 17:47 📊 A trip to the grocery store reveals that many protein bars are high in added sugars, unhealthy fats, and preservatives, highlighting the need for caution when choosing protein bars. 20:17 🥤 Experimentation with microwaving and blending protein bars shows that they can be turned into shakes, but the choice of protein bar matters for taste.

All jokes and puns aside.. those bars are.. for the most part.. loaded with sugar and junk.. and they can be expensive..

    I went through a period where all I ate was bars… breakfast, lunch and dinner… I thought I was being super healthy… but they also have lots a added vitamins etc… so i was getting way too much of certain vitamins… not good…

    Maybe kinda related to the constipation thing, but I cracked my ribs a few months ago and they put me on heavy duty pain meds. And I didn't poop for about five days I think. No exaggeration
