6. Simply Protein Bars

Simply Protein Bars offer that snacky feeling without all the extra stuff that might make you crash later. These bars also offer a natural source of sweetener, so you’re still satisfying that sweet tooth craving but keeping the sugar low.

I also like that they’re plant-based, are a good source of fiber, and don’t contain artificial sweeteners like many low or no sugar products do (instead they have monk fruit as an additional natural sugar-free sweetener),” Avery Zenker, RD at EverFlex Fitness says.
