While the RXBar is not “high” in sodium, the Chocolate Sea Salt flavor does have 7x the amount that the JERF Bar has. Each RXBar (Chocolate JERF Bar; Image SupplementClarity.com The RX Bar (Chocolate Sea Salt flavor) provides 330 mg of potassium, which is 10% of what we should be getting per day. The JERF Bar does not list how much potassium it has. For the fruit based flavors, you don’t need as many Medjool dates because you’re adding in the dried fruit. Nine grams of fat is a substantial amount (the fat content of an RXBAR fluctuates between 7 and 10 grams depending on variety), but much of it qualifies as “healthy” fat. That’s largely because RXBARs make extensive use of ingredients like pecans, cashews, almonds and peanuts. Nuts (peanuts are technically legumes but have a nutritional profile similar to most nuts) are high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Monounsaturated fats help reduce blood pressure and protect against heart disease. They can also help the body better absorb vitamins and more efficiently use protein. Polyunsaturated fats can reduce blood cholesterol levels and lower the risk of heart disease and strokes. The best way to reap the benefits of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats is to use them to replace saturated fats in your diet.Sea Salt) provides 270 mg of sodium while the JERF Bar only provides 35 mg. Remember, from above Chocolate Sea Salt, has the most sodium of any RXBar version. Other versions have less sodium. You’ll also need water to help the mixture come together at the end. The rest of the ingredients and ratio of ingredients needed will depend on the flavor you’re making. Both bars make health claims. Here is a side-by-side comparison of the health claims for RX Bar and JERF Bar RXBar Health Claims According to Shavon Morrison, RDN, RXBars may be marketed as a convenient and healthy option, but they come with a premium price tag. And for the ingredients you’re getting, you’re better off making your own bars or finding a more affordable alternative. 5. Misleading marketing

I mentioned this in my JERF Bar review also. I know it has some potassium but exactly how much I cannot say at this time. I'm sure that eventually, potassium will be listed. Egg White Protein Powder – This is where most of your protein comes from in the recipe. Egg white protein <– linked to the one I usekeeps this recipe paleo-friendly, Whole30® compliant and also vegetarian. I don’t have an equal 1:1 sub for another protein powder in this recipe. See more notes in the recipe card. To me, this sounds like the natural flavors are indeed natural and are based on foods. At this time, I don't see any issues here. Are They Good Cold? The 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines recommend 25 to 35 grams of fiber per day for adults. Many of us don't reach that goal, so looking for bars with a higher fiber content can help contribute to that goal.In the table above, “% DV” means percent daily value. The Daily Value is the amount (expressed as a percentage) that each bar contributes to our daily allotment for a given nutrient. For example, the 9 grams of total fat in the RXBar provides 13% of the recommended amount of fat we eat daily. Although natural bars may have higher amounts of sugar than others on the market, it's best to choose products sweetened with natural sugars from dried fruits, like dates. The recommendation for added sugar is to stay below 25 grams per day for women and less than 37 grams per day for men. Consider how much added sugar you consume through other foods and try to choose products with less than 15 grams of sugar. In the bowl of your food processor with S blade, process cashews, walnuts and egg white protein until nuts have broken down into small pieces. In the bowl of your food processor with S blade, process peanuts and egg white protein until nuts have broken down. It won’t take much because the peanuts are already fairly small.

I have to say the name of this nutrition bar is pretty snazzy. In the medical world, “RX” means prescription. So by adding RX to the name, they are subtly saying that this is the prescription (remedy) for your nutrition problems. In the bowl of your food processor with S blade, process walnuts, cashews and egg white protein until nuts have broken down into small pieces. The label for the RXBar lists percentages for vitamins A, C, Calcium, iron, riboflavin, magnesium, phosphorus, and copper. The JERF Bar only lists percentages for vitamins A, C, calcium, and iron. As with potassium above, I know they are present in the JERF Bar. Not listing them does not mean they are not there. As for how much, I cannot say at this time. The GoMacro protein bars offer wholesome, organic, vegan ingredients, including seeds, nuts, nut butters, puffed rice, dried fruits, pea protein, and brown rice protein. With 280 calories, 11 grams of fat, 2 grams of fiber, and 11 grams of protein (peanut butter flavor), these bars can sustain you for longer periods of time between meals.

While each variety has slightly different nutrition facts, none stray too far from these numbers. Right off the bat, there are two things I love about the nutrition of RXBARs—they’re high in fiber and they’re high in protein. While a high-fiber and high-protein content is a hallmark of many nutritious foods, they’re especially advantageous in nutrition bars. Bottom line: The RXBar is probably not for people who are allergic to soy, milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, almonds, cashews or coconut. Who Makes The RXBAR? Rather than run the brand from its Manchester HQ after the acquisition, Kellogg’s opted to take a startup-style approach and allow the brand to be run from separate offices in Marylebone, London, with MD Richard Peake at the helm.Peake left in May 2020 to lead health food brand Merchant Gourmet. RXBars boast “simple ingredients” such as nuts and dried fruit, but they also contain unnecessary additives like natural flavorings, which are often chemically derived. As Chicago-based nutritionist Laurel Jakubowski, RD, LDN, says, “Just because something is labeled ‘natural’ doesn’t mean it’s good for you. In fact, natural flavorings can be just as risky harmful as artificial ones.” 2. Excess sugar
