Feel Good Guru

When I’m not doing “Feel Good Fast”, I have a tendency to grab breakfast in a bar en route to the gym. Or when I’m travelling far away from my kitchen and great restaurants, bars are often my main source of energy. I know, not very healthy. That’s why I do “Feel Good Fast” four times a year.

Until recently, there hasn’t been a bar that I feel really good about. So many of them have hidden sugars, unnecessary preservatives, are a wimpy 52 grams, and are processed beyond looking like any kind of real food…Then along came ProBar…

ProBar is the closest thing to a home made granola bar you’re going to find out there – arguably better – I don’t know any home chefs who are going to make themselves a bar with 39 natural ingredients!

Weighing in at a whopping 85 grams, and tossing 400 calories into your body, these organic and vegan bars are not for the calorie-obsessed. But they were created by a snow-boarding natural foods chef and you can bet they’ll get you down the hill (and up again…and down again…) with real food energy.

I wish I could get the Cocoa Pistachio ProBar at gas stations on the Alaska Highway so I wouldn’t have to drink hot chocolate and eat giant cinnamon buns.

I wish I could get the Sesame Goji ProBar at Starbucks so I wouldn’t have to eat their sugar and white flour-stuffed muffins to soak up the acid from my morning coffee.

I wish I could get the Kettle Corn ProBar at the movie theatre so I wouldn’t have to eat their over-salted genetically modified popcorn.

For now, I’ll have to make due with a whole variety of ProBars at Whole Foods.
