Universal Nutrition Doctor's CarbRite Diet™ Toasted Coconut -- 12 Bars

Universal Nutrition Doctor's CarbRite Diet™ Toasted Coconut -- 12 Bars

2.5 g Net Impact Carbs. Rated #1 in Taste!  . No Artificial Sweeteners. No Hydrogenated Oils. Doctor's CarbRite Diet™. For the low carb way of life. Just because you're on a low carbohydrate diet, doesn't mean you have to lower your standards. With Universal Nutrition Doctor's CarbRite Diet Bars, you can have a bar you really enjoy, one that's full of flavor. The Doctor's CarbRite Diet Bar will satisfy even the most demanding sweet tooth. So if you are sick of low carb bars that taste like cardboard, try the Doctor's CarbRite Bar. No prescription needed! Aside from conventional carbs, there's another class of unconventional carbs called polyols or sugar alcohols. Not truly a carb, these nutrients are commonly found in sugar-free foods to impart sweetness and texture. Nutrients such as maltitol and glycerine, do not cause a significant rise in insulin levels because the body has a hard time absorbing them. This is good because low carb dieting is all about controlling insulin, the hormone which triggers fat storage. Our products all have very low levels of net impact carbs and are therefore perfect for a low carb dieter like you.

"I'm not usually a fan of CarbRite bars because of their smooth texture & high glycerine content, but Toasted Coconut actually tastes better than the other flavors I've tried & has a grainier texture (though still pleasantly chewy, not dry). I like the low-carb & high-protein content. I'd buy this bar again."

"I love these bars. They taste a little like a Mounds bar. I don't eat sugar, so these are a little sweet for me though. I like the peanut butter bars because they don't taste too sweet. I work in the evenings, can't leave to eat dinner so I eat one of these every evening instead and they keep me from getting too hungry. I've lost over 90 pounds in 7 months and they've been a big part of my diet. Now several of my friends are hooked on these bars too. All of them love these toasted coconut bars the best."

"I love coconut, so when I saw these bars, I figured I'd give 'em a try. The taste is excellent! Also, the protein:calories ratio is outstanding. My one and only complaint is that the bar uses soy protein. Certain types, or preparations, of soy has been shown that it can have a negative effect on testosterone levels of males. However, the amount I'm getting in these bars every once in a while is fairly small, so I'm not worried. Too bad they couldn't use reguar whey, or just plain milk protein isolate.

Even still, the bar tastes excellent, has a great ratio of protein to calories and will be a 'regular' of mine for a really long time.

"These taste great and are so portable. Most people on low carb diets know that it is hard to find low carb snacks that you can take with you. I always keep a few of these in my purse and at my desk at work in case i get hungry. They are so delicious that the vending machine is no longer a tempting source of something sweet, plus the high protein content keeps me full for hours. I often substitute them for a meal when i am running low on time...I know it is bad for your metabolism to skip meals and i can always find 5 minutes to eat this. Wonderful product and definitely the best low carb bar i have ever tasted. I would be tempted to eat more than one if they weren't so filling."

"This is one of the best bars I've ever had, of any kind! The plus is that it is actually low-carb and tastes decent, unlike all other low-carb bars I've tried in the past. It's chewy but not gooey, and is pretty filling! Give it a try - I'm checking out the smores flavor next..."
