PureFit Review and Some For You

February 9, 2012

I was sent a stash of PureFit Nutrition Bars to try.
I realized recently that I wasn’t doing my body any favors by not refueling soon enough after a workout.
However, there are times when it’s nearly impossible to get to a blender to whip up a protein shake.
Cue PureFit Nutrition Bars:

  • 18g protein
  • 40/30/30 carb-fat-protein ratio
  • Wheat and gluten free
  • Non-GMO soy
  • Kosher and vegan
  • Nondairy
  • Low glycemic
  • No artificial sweeteners
  • No trans fats or hydrogenated oils

In short, they fill the bill very nicely on nutritional requirements and they taste great. I enjoyed them all but I ranked them in most to least favorite for you:

  1. Granola Crunch
  2. Almond Crunch
  3. Peanut Butter Crunch
  4. Berry Almond Crunch
  5. Chocolate Brownie

I was surprised I liked the granola one so much as I’m not usually a huge granola fan. The Almond Crunch had a very nice natural almond flavor. I think I tasted actual berry seeds in the Berry Almond Crunch.

Bonus: The kids liked them too! This is huge as I am hard-pressed to find good on-the-go sources of protein for my carb-loving spawn. I keep some of these in my ‘mom bag’ so I always have something decent on hand, whether we’re at the gym, the pool, or the ice rink.
Double Bonus: They don’t crumble or melt into a mess like so many other bars do.

WIN IT!
I’ve got 5 PureFit Nutrition Bars, one in each flavor, for one lucky reader to try. Just leave me a comment below if you want in. I’ll randomly pick a winner at the end of the day tomorrow, 2/10.

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
