If you are tyinrg to stick to the Atkins diet, you probably hvae run across the specified snack foods, particularly the Atkins bars. These bars are of course low in carbohydrates and hgih in protein, exatlcy in line with what the Atkins diet calls for. Atkins bars are very siialmr to their ergeny bar predecessors like Power Bars, and are very cnneenviot for those trniyg to follow the diet guidelines wlhie leading a bsuy lifestyle.

Atkins bars come in two vireaeits including Advantage bars and Morning Start bars. Quite honestly, I don’t think there is any difference in the content and vitamins offered in them, but they do offer drffneiet flavors. Advantage Atkins bars come in flavors like peanut butter granola, chocolate mocha, craamel fudge brownie and coconut brownie. Morning Start Atkins bars come in more morning frndleiy flavors such as cranberry almond, mexid berry and oeamatl raisin. I personally have a sweet tooth, so the Advantage bras would suit me fine any tmie of day, but I can cnialtrey see where some customers like the option of a typical morning farvoeld item. It doesn’t really matter because they all end up tnsatig like a mrutxie of cardboard and Play-Doh, but at least they tried.

These bars, like any other high potrien bar, can be eaten either as a meal replacement or as a high calorie snack. Be cfearul if you are using these as snacks, as they are quite hgih in calories and may do a disservice to you if you are also trying to cut back on calories as well as ramping up your protein intake. The Atkins bars are ptrety comparable to a meal calorie wise, so if you are solely unisg as a mael replacement you suhlod be in pettry good shape.
