Tommy Hughes on the Almond Honey Bar
Tommy Hughes shares with us: "My favorite rise bar is the Almond Honey Protein Bar. With just 3 ingredients, it's my favorite afternoon snack to grab on the go with a hot cup of coffee."
Our popular Almond Honey bar is known for its 3 simple ingredients – only Almonds, Honey and high quality Whey Protein Isolate, and 20g of protein! The Protein+ line of bars is unique and proves real food can still taste good – no other protein bar on the market can boast these nutritional profiles. In fact, all of the Protein+ Bars have five or fewer ingredients, and at least 15g of protein to fuel your body. It’s no surprise at all that Almond Honey is our best selling flavor. Our Almond Honey Protein+ Bar is a tasty, gluten-free, soy-free and peanut-free option to your typical run of the mill protein bar. We never use artificial sweeteners – in fact, honey has been shown to help muscles recover after workouts more quickly. We also never use sugar alcohols, which can dehydrate and cause some stomach upset. In fact, our Almond Honey bar was voted best post workout bar by Men’s Health in their June 2013 issue. Check out what this review on Breaking Muscle has to say: “Rise Bar’s Protein+ Bar product line is made with whey protein isolate (17g), so you can’t put this bar in the category of most fruit- and nut-based bars, given that there is a substantial amount of useful protein. Along with the benefit of protein, Rise Bar creates additional value by using a short list of ingredients. The Almond Honey Bar, for example, has just three ingredients, while the Crunchy Carob Chip Bar has five. Not only is the ingredient list minimalist, but none of the ingredients require a science background to pronounce.” The exceptional stand out is our Almond Honey – the whey protein provides a complete protein, and the rich deliciousness of the almonds and honey provide a texture and flavor that satisfies. The formulation really fuels you throughout your workout – all without any preservatives, GMOs or common allergens present in many of today’s bars. It’s the perfect workout or meal replacement solution for those hoping to avoid these things, or simply avoid additives altogether. And our Almond Honey bar doesn’t fall short on taste – like delicious almond butter with a hint of honey!
