PureFit Review




PureFit Nutrition Bars come in 5 delicious flavors: “Granola Crunch, Almond Crunch, Berry Almond Crunch, Chocolate Brownie, & Peanut Butter.” They sent me one of each to try & I truthfully enjoyed them all. If I had to choose a favorite, it’s a toss up between the Almond Crunch and the Chocolate Brownie since both were so rich & delicious it was hard to believe I was eating a healthy treat. Their texture is thick, chewy, a bit on the dense side, but not necessarily “crunchy” as some of the names state.

Each PureFit flavor conveniently has the same nutritional breakdown, & follows the “40/30/30” ratio (40% carbs, 30% protein, 30% fat). One bar contains 210-220 calories, 24-25 grams of carbohydrates (10-14 grams of sugar), 2-4 grams of fiber, 18 grams of protein, and 6-7 grams of fat. The bars contain all-natural ingredients and free from artificial sweeteners, trans fats and hydrogenated oils as well as wheat, gluten, and dairy-free. In addition, they have a low glycemic index which means they are diabetic-friendly.
Overall I really enjoyed PureFit bars and would recommend them to anyone looking for a protein bar that’s relatively low in sugar, vegan and great tasting.
