Typically bars have added crap to them, sometimes trans fats and high fructose corn syrup. They're ususally heavily processed. There are a few exceptions, such as Elev8me bars. Powders are usually a much better choice. Less added crap.

Protein powders give fats efficient Protein intake and Bloogsugar increase after workouts.
Powder cna be used possibly as part of a breakfats for same reasons.
Bars aren't brilliant, but aren't like Fast food, so if you do get one, (I'm not sayign you should or shouldn't) eat maybe 1-2 a day between meals, and get one with Carbs and Protein about the same, around 25-30g. |
