Great video - thanks, Thomas. I check out protein bars constantly, in every store i go into. The one thing I've noticed is that most companies are still using BAD oils. I keep hoping these companies will get the message!!!
Can you do a video on just low carb or do you just do Keto? I have been eating high protein and low carb for 13 weeks and have lost 9.1 kilos. Would love some more ideas. Thanks Thomas. Loving your videos ❤
I try to avoid them but I found the least processed and natural were better for me. They’re usually more expensive though. I’m in the UK and would say Bulk are the best. Grenade were expensive and bad for digestion. My protein not too bad.
well i bar you showing in 2:40 as i can read contain maltitol syrup , palm kernel is NO NO! One Crunch - maltitol , palm kernel , SUCRALOSE - no Wow that in 04:41 i googled and look best of all there thank you for showing it ! Unfortunately is almost impossible to find that RxBar in uk ..
Thank you Thomas for all your hard work and information. I have followed you for about 18 months when I decided to work on my health and eating lifestyle change, lost 30 lbs on average and 4 1/2 inches on my waist. It can get confusing and overwhelming with all the ingredients. You nail it every time. I am now a regular customer of HOM directly from their website as I don't have a Sprouts near me. But you have given me other options in a pinch some are sold at my Walmart which is less than a mile from me. Thank you again
Quest bars were (maybe?) halfway acceptable for years but now, with no warning, they have Soy and Bioengineered Food Product in them. I read my dog's food label today and it didn't even have bioengineered food product. They're bad. They are claiming "supply chain issues" have driven them to stop caring about your health and put Soy and Bios in. Money, money money is all that matters. Probably were absorbed into an umbrella company in reality.
I’ve been wanting to try a House of Macadamias product, but I wasn’t quite ready to place an order online. It’s nice to know they are now at Sprouts 🌱. I will see if the Sprouts near my house has them available. Thanks 😊

I am obsessed with Pure Protein chocolate deluxe. 180 calories and 21 grams protein. 🙌🙌🙌🙌 I keep them in the fridge and they taste so good cold. I literally crave them.
FYI men. No soy, flax, or mint. Maltodextrin is powdered corn sugar. 1 gram of protein is 4 calories. Protein bars are not a great option, however, better than a Snickers.
Amen. Now you also have to watch out for the bioengineered food products. They are killing anyone not paying attention slowly. And we don't get the memo when the ingredients change at a 3AM Umbrella corporation takeover meeting. We have to re-check even our lifetime trusted brands - every time we shop.
@@lilmanq7746 you should research it yourself. Corn sweeteners spike your blood sugar more than cane sugar, it is GM, and contains round up. Synthetic sweeteners are just bad all around by how they are created to what they do to our micro biome, and soy based products contain phytoestrogens and cause numerous problems with our health.
@@lilmanq7746 Soy causes Gynecomastia, which is "man boobs". Soy, however, confuses the hormones of every human on Earth of every age. It's poison, but doesn't kill you. All air fresheners, lavender and essential oils do the same.
Thank you. I'm looking for a simple, clean protein bar. Just bought IQ and RX bars. After I finish them , I'll look for the Atlas & House of Macadamia.
Thomas, I've enjoyed many of your videos. However, this one was frustrating because you passed over what I think is a superior bar to virtually all you mentioned. Nugo SLIM protein bars. You said you like chocolate mint, it was right on the shelf. I eat their bars regularly. Profile: 17g protein, 3g sugar, 170 calories, 6g fat (3 saturated), 18g carbs, 6g fiber. Ingredients: Protein Blend [Soy Crisp (Soy Protein, Alkalized Cocoa, Tapioca, Salt), Soy Protein, Rice Protein]... and NO palm oil. I'm curious, what do YOU think???
@@senorpepper3405 Your point exactly because I think your comment is misplaced in the context of this video. Please go listen to the video before you make comments with no substance
Finally you reviewed the IQBar. This is my go-to bar for meal replacements. In addition with what Thomas said, these bars also have a high availability and relatively low price... sold at almost every store including Target, Walmart, Kroger. They taste awesome, especially when eaten with Catalina Crunch cereal. The Atlas bar changed since when they first debuted over two years ago. Although they have increased the protein, the flavor took a turn for the worst on a few of their bars. I think the best tasting will be the peanut butter chocolate chip and the Peanut Butter & Raspberry. Sadly, the ingredient change greatly impacted the Mint Chocolate Chip and Chocolate sea salt flavors, as their taste took a turn for the worst. On top of all that, they are quite expensive. My workout bar, especially for strength training, will be MRE- it isn't low carb, but the first ingredients are beef, chicken, salmon, and eggs
Well this went from a good update on protein bars to a commercial for his sponsor. I’ve followed Thomas for years but getting the “sell out” feel these days
Thomas, I’m confused about your review of the Laird Bar. You say it has a good protein to calorie profile, but you end by saying you wouldn’t necessarily eat it due to its fairly high calories for the amount of protein that you’re getting.
Stevia tastes absolutely awful to me. It seems like all the bars are changing to stevia. 🤮 As a teacher, bars are very convenient to sneak in between classes. Think and the non-stevia Quest bars are my favorites for balance of protein, flavor, and price. Price matters. Some of the bars are really expensive, not teacher priced.
Despite the advertising, nutrition experts say that proteins bars aren't all that healthy. Let's be fair, protein bar are just glorified candy bars and cookies wrap in fancy plastic wrap.
I have a box of Atlas because I was impressed by the ingredients but they are overly dry and not very good. I don't recommend them. Going to see if my kids will eat them.
Is there a protein bar out there that's sweetened with Allulose?, has whey isolate or hydrolyzed whey isolate, and doesn't have sugar alcohols or dates. So, low carb, high protein, medium calorie. That's TODAY'S perfect protein bar.
Quest bars were halfway acceptable for years but now, with no warning, they have Soy and Bioengineered Food Product in them. Soy confuses the hormones of humans. ALL humans. I read my dog's food label today and it didn't even have bioengineered food product. They're bad. Quest is claiming "supply chain issues" have driven them to stop caring about your health and put Soy and Bios in. Money, money money is all that matters. Probably were absorbed into an umbrella company in reality. Beware.
Thomas, I heard you say in a video sometime ago “erythritol is toxic for your gut” and I’ve always avoided it since. But then lately I hear you say “it’s fantastic” and you say products with malitol and erythritol are fine. I’m confused
I’ve never said maltitol is fine, even in this video I was clear that it’ll send you to the toilet. And I’ve also never said erythritol is toxic for the gut. Send me the exact video where I say that, please. Perhaps you’re getting me confused with someone else. I even did a full campaign on erythritol being safe when all the crap came out about it last year.
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficialWell in the video you said “Now, maltitol is not like, this dangerous thing. It’s not a bad, unclean ingredient” and that it can be consumed and be satiating, it just might bloat you. I always thought it was to be avoided just like artificial sweeteners, and same with erythritol and all sugar alcohols. I’m 99% sure it was a video I watched from you where you said “it’s toxic for your gut” a few years ago, and I avoided it ever since. It’s possible it was Dr Eric Berg but I could’ve swore it was one of yours, I’d have to go back and see if I can find it.
It’s not toxic. It’s just a sugar alcohol. But it will jack up your gut. And definitely didn’t say that on erythritol. ua-cam.com/video/yncn0o-OhAU/v-deo.htmlsi=PUnJKa6NFmq0Afav
First video I’ve seen of this guy. Does he have a financial interest in House of Macadamia? If he’s friends with the store owners and some of the bar companies how can we take his word for anything?

ONE bar Maple favorite is the best tasting,best macros and ingredients I've found.
I love bars that don't mimic a dessert! Super tired of sweet stuff with protein added
Macadamia bars are great! Got 3 boxes! Thanks Thomas!
Best video! Thank you. Hooe you do another in this series tasting your blood sugar response to some of these 😊
Great video - thanks, Thomas. I check out protein bars constantly, in every store i go into. The one thing I've noticed is that most companies are still using BAD oils. I keep hoping these companies will get the message!!!

Wow that in 04:41 i googled and look best of all there thank you for showing it ! Unfortunately is almost impossible to find that RxBar in uk ..
So which ones were the best to long to watch all this

@@blixcardssoy won't kill you, and it's only soy lecithin. You'll be fine.
The original company creators sold out. Since then the buyers have been slipping in less than healthy ingredients.
Pretty comprehensive, thanks!

Good to know they at Sprouts. Thx
This was an amazing informational video! Thank you!
I know that the "love good fats" company has a "love good protein" bar out now too. I'd love to see your take on that one!
I enjoy these types of videos! Can you make some videos on how to pick the best healthy snacks for kids! Thanks
Look up Bobby Parish he does a lot of these videos

Sucralose
LAIRD bars are my favorite and have the cleanest ingredients imo.
almonds have oxalates so, take your pick.
After 2 years of keto I'm done with all that packaged crap. Whole foods or nothing at this point.
Great info thanks! What would your top vegan bar please?
FYI men. No soy, flax, or mint. Maltodextrin is powdered corn sugar. 1 gram of protein is 4 calories. Protein bars are not a great option, however, better than a Snickers.
I'm not a man but I'm still wondering why no flax or mint?
@@hcure4003 They destroy Testosterone .
Maltodextrin is poison
Loved this! Thank you!
Stay away from soy, corn based ingredients, and synthetic sweeteners. That’s why I don’t touch most of these protein bars.

Thanks for sharing, I will try one or two ❤
What about NoCow Bars with 20g plant protein and 3 Net Carbs?! Can't miss that one which is available at Sprouts.
Just got turned on to these. The dipped bars are insane. Great profile too.
Good stuff Thomas! Thanks.
I put blueberry larabar in my blueberry smoothie Game changer.
very helpful, thank you !
My go to bar….Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups 😋😋😋
Tried the nick’s bar today after watching. So good!
There are many more high protein bars at 20g or higher that weren't covered, but pretty good analysis.
What do you think about transparent lab protein powder...? It claims to be the cleanest protein powder in the market.
thoughts on the built puff bar?
Thank you. I'm looking for a simple, clean protein bar. Just bought IQ and RX bars. After I finish them , I'll look for the Atlas & House of Macadamia.
Great content!😊
Thank guy did this video ! I’m so overwhelmed w the protein bar isle thanks again 👍🙏
Have one of those Nick’s bars and you’ll change you’re mind about the CanDo bars lol. Love the vids bro, thanks for the content 🙏
This is great. Thanks so much for such a comprehensive review

Soy.
Awesome info video thanks
Guess will have to visit my local Sprouts and request House of Macadamia snack bars!
Love for you to do one of these if you're ever in London!!
Great video, just what I wanted! How are shelled pumpkin seeds for phytic acid? Also, is sunflower lecithin alright or nasty ?
Excellent video and content. Please use a camera that can focus properly.
I like atlas so far. I've like larabar. Waiting on my order of iqbar banana nut just sounds good.
I currently regularly consume aloha bars and really like the protein and fiber amounts.
Do they still make PowerBar? I remember my dad buying those 20+ years ago
I wish there were more dairy free option with decent protein content. Too busy at work sometimes.
I will definitely keep my eye out for the House Of Macadamia Bars
In South Africa we don't have a lot of options interesting to see variety there

The One bars and Quest bars are right now my goto when i need a bar that doesn't fall apart. Just got the IQ bars to try.
Do you have a video or can you address the topic of how whey protein is assimilated in the body as a carb? Different types of processing of whey?
Does anyone know abt muni bars (I know they aren’t high in protein)?
I noticed that quest did not make the cut. Could you tell me the ingredients in quest that you do not like
How is no one taking about Julian Bakery? By far the best bars in the market. 4 ingredients, 20 grams of cafe-free egg white protein, super low carb.
You don't want to look at seed oils or types of sweeteners?
Lara bars are delicious but I don’t eat them anymore because they’re too high in calories.
Anybody ever ask about gerkins and pickle juice while fasting? No calories according to nutritional values
Well this went from a good update on protein bars to a commercial for his sponsor. I’ve followed Thomas for years but getting the “sell out” feel these days
I'm wandering why you always show the quest bar on your thumbnail but actually never talk or review them?
JYM brand is going to be coming with a bar (found @ GMC soon). I'd like to know what Thomas thinks about them before I buy.
What does everyone think about special K bars and the MetRX bars
Is Fairlife a good protein shake???
No
Atlas Bars are the cleanest bar on the market.
So which are you recommending
So which one is the one that has less calories?
What do you think of the No Cow bar?
Great video
I love atlas and Aloha Bars the best!
I wish they had more protein but I love the Mezcla bars
Thomas, I’m confused about your review of the Laird Bar. You say it has a good protein to calorie profile, but you end by saying you wouldn’t necessarily eat it due to its fairly high calories for the amount of protein that you’re getting.
Sad we can not get house of macadamia bars in Canada
Can you give us some advice on taste?I know everyone’s tastes are different but some taste like chalk 😊
If you want a candy bar then buy a candy bar.
erythritol linked to heart attacks and cardiovascular issues. Honestly I’d avoid it why can’t they use something more natural in it?

check out the munk pack bars
Just so small
yeah. I always want another one after 😆@@davidz8286

Interesting video! I love the protein bars from Julian Bakery. The amount of protein and fiber to calories is much better than anything mentioned.
Despite the advertising, nutrition experts say that proteins bars aren't all that healthy. Let's be fair, protein bar are just glorified candy bars and cookies wrap in fancy plastic wrap.
Its a case basis. Some are genuinely healthier options than than candy bars ( said healthier; not healthy).
Though you don't get the protein in the macadamia nut bar.
Have you ever thought about developing your own brand of protein bar.
No processed food would include protein bars would it not?
what are your thoughts on Built puff bars?
Atlas bars are the best!
I have a box of Atlas because I was impressed by the ingredients but they are overly dry and not very good. I don't recommend them. Going to see if my kids will eat them.
Don't eat it unless you really really want something sweet

Tuna packets. Trader Joe's has one 90 calories, 22 grams of protein. Had to put aside my dislike of tuna 😂
