MY (VERY) HONEST REVIEW OF SAKARA ENERGY SUPER PROTEIN BARS

A year or so ago, I gave up on protein bars. After 18 years in fitness and nutrition I had tried them all and was officially and completely burned out on bars. Sick of fake ingredients, disgusting chewy textures, too much sugar, sugar alcohols, nasty aftertastes, some made me feel bloated, some made me feel like I hadn’t eaten anything, some made me crave sugar. I was officially over them ALL and going for a real food snack if I needed to supplement my meals.

Then COVID hit and once again I had to figure out something I could bring to the gym and eat quickly between clients on my long days. I didn’t want to be touching weights then be eating something with my hands. I decided to start searching again. There had to be a bar out there with clean ingredients, balanced macros, that tasted decent and would fill me up without making me feel bloated or groggy. The hunt was officially on.

I had heard of Sakara before, but had never tried their protein bars. After reading ALL the reviews and looking into the ingredients, I decided to go for it and ordered the Super Bar Collection so I could try all of the flavors. I gave the Detox bar a try first. The bright green/blue color did not phase me, but the taste did. I would not recommend this flavor at all. I ended up throwing 3 of these bars away because I just couldn’t do it. Next, I tried the Beauty bar. It was okay. Not horrible, not great, I did end up finishing the 6 bars that came in the shipment, but I would not order them again.

Finally, I tried the Energy Super Bar and YES! I had found a protein bar I could get down with. Not only does this bar taste amazing…think dark chocolate, slightly salty, slightly sweet, but it also gave me a great little energy boost in the late afternoon without affecting my sleep. It wasn’t some crazy caffeine surge, I just felt more focused, energized and productive. Filled with only completely clean ingredients: L-Theanine, B12 and Theobromine for energy, dates for sweetness and hemp protein, these bars absolutely satisfy my need for a quick “in between session” snack, an afternoon energy boost and the delicious ease and convenience of a bar.

If you have given up on trying to find a truly clean, super yummy, filling protein bar too…give these a try babes! They have been a game changer for my afternoons. The texture, ingredients and taste are so far beyond what you’ve tried in the past. I’m obsessed and think once you try them, you will be too! xo

“Cancer is the loving parent and the infant. To “Cancer is the loving parent and the infant. To learn to nurture and nourish ourselves without expecting others to do so is Cancer’s greatest calling. Cancer needs love. Cancer needs family. Cancer initiates emotional ties, bonds and feelings through demonstrating care. It’s Big Momma Magic.” @chaninicholas⁠

As we enter Cancer season, I want to share some of the amazing mamas in the BbE community. These women embody Cancer’s compassionate, nurturing, energy in how they take care of their beautiful babies (big and small) as well as themselves! Working out, eating healthy, meditating, and doing all the wellness things while raising and caring for your precious humans - you all are such amazing examples and incredible inspirations to me and everyone around you! 🙌🏽🙌🏽⁠🩷

Whether you are a mom or not, the “Big Momma” energy of this season can be used to refocus and shift how you nurture, nourish and take care of yourself and those around you!

Jill Winterstein aka @spiritdaughter said, ”It is a time to slow down, feel, and become inspired by your own intuition. It’s also a time to ask for what you need and work on receiving it. So often, we block our reception of energy because we feel compelled to always give. This is a season of giving and taking, feeling and receiving, and pausing just long enough to enjoy the sweetness of life.” 🙏🏽

Here is to embracing all the energy of this Cancer season! xo 🌊🐚🧜‍♀️
