What about Protria protein bars?

Anyone tried these? No sugar, 3 g of fat and 20 grams of protein... I'm thinking these would be a hit with the bariatric community, but I didn't see any reviews for them on this site... Anyone tried these? It says 20 g of sugar alcohols... could sugar alcohols make one dump?

Girl.......... if y ou ate this you would have gas gas gas the surgar alcohols atr very high, and they make me feel terrible.... I know Barix Clinic where your having your surgery has one great protein bar that taste great. But its sweet. Other then that I would pick somthing else !!!

Yes the Barix has a detour bar that is huge I just got some yesterday and they are great...I think it is 5 grams of sugar and mind you the bars are like a king size candy bar...and it has 30 grams of protein....

Yes sugar alcohols can make you dump.....someone told me to add up the sugar and sugar alcohols and try to find something that has the lowest total....

Crystal, Do you know if you have to be a patient of Barix to buy their products?  I don't see it anywhere on their website. Marie

why not make your own?  There are a ton of recipes online for protein bars --- or if you send me an email, I can send you the file I've got of ones I've collected.   This way you can control what goes into the bar and avoid a lot of the bad things that manufacturers put in (like hydrogenated oils and sugar).   To start out... here's one of my favorites: Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar Pam

Pam,

We got some protein bar recipies from Toni a couple months ago.  Do you have more?  Or are those the same ones?

Marie

Marie: Yes, I think those are the same ones that I compiled.  I've been so stuck on those double-chocolate ones that I haven't tried any others.  I'm going to need to pull that file out again and find something new to try.  I seem to remember one in there that has a base of Pistachio pudding and vanilla protein powder.
