great taste and good nutrition August 29, 2008
M. A. Klein (Pgh, PA)
I eat one every morning for breatfast. It was hard for me to give up granola bars but theses have become my favorite on the go choice. If we're going shopping and we might be gone long I always have some stashed in the car. It is always so hard to find things that are tasty and gluten free but these bars fill the bill

I'm a group exercise instructor who suffers from frequent and severe low blood sugar. I've been through all sorts of different bars and these are hands down THE BEST. They taste great, have 6g of dietary fiber and 11g of protein, low in fat....chocolate tastes exactly like a Crunch bar.
I noticed a difference in my blood sugar stability the first morning I had one. I usually can't go without eating something for more than an hour and a half, but these carried me about 3 hours before I realized I needed to eat again. That says a LOT! I'm not even going to try the 9 hour claim it makes, but that's just me.
LOVE THEM and I'll cry if they ever discontinue them!!
The Best Bar on the Market Hands Down July 19, 2008

Going on Weight Watchers has its challenges. I have lost about 40 lbs to date and it has been good but I find that many of the products recommended by them have too much sugar. For example, everyone suggested Fiber One Bars as a snack because they are low in points. I noticed though that they spiked my blood sugar and stalled my weight loss. I switched to Extend Bars and boy, what a difference! I eat one of these every day, some times two. I really like them before bed or in the morning to help stabilize my blood sugar (I am hypoglycemic, pre-diabetic). I never have trouble eating breakfast now, these with a glass of skim milk or coffee and milk and a piece of fruit and I am good to go until lunch.
What is the difference between Extend Bars and the rest on the market? First, they are only a 150 calories with only 3 grams of fat but 11 grams of protein per bar. They also have 5 grams of fiber, just enough to help digestion, without causing stomach discomfort. (Something I can not say about some of the others on the market!)
I can not find another bar on the market to match those protein and fiber stats for the little calories and fat exchange. Also, the glycemic index is low because this bar contains a special slow digesting corn starch created from a corn grain that is different than the normal variety. It does not allow the blood sugar to spike, which can stall weight loss. This is the number one selling point for me, high protein and low glycemic...
Finally because I really believe we eat WAY too many processed carbs in our diet, this satisfied me in another area, it has a low net carb ratio, and does it WITHOUT the use of high levels of sugar alcohol. There are only 4 grams of sugar alcohol per bar, that is completely different than any other low carb bar on the market.
I really like the Chocolate and Peanut Butter, but not too wild about the berry and apple ones though. These taste exactly like the South Beach Cereal Bars, just less sweet. Give them a chance, they are not going to be as sweet as other things on the market...but they are great with coffee or milk...helps them not be too dry. Be sure to drink plenty of water as will any high fiber bar.
JUST AS YUMMY AS THE MINT AND THE PEANUT June 16, 2008

THEY ARE ALL TASTY AS WELL AS BEING GOOD FOR YOU. NOT SURE IF THEY SUPRESS THE APETITE BUT ARE SUPPOSED TO KEEP THE EDGE OFF THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND REDUCE SPIKES AND CRAVINGS. CAN'T HURT IS WHAT I SAY. IS OKAY FOR DIABETICS TOO IF YOU FIGURE IT INTO YOUR CARBS. ETC.
"Dreambar" for Diabetics & WeightWatchers April 6, 2008

At last!! A yummy sweet for diabetics, weight watchers and even ordinary guys. The name Extendbar truly doesn't do this "dreambar" justice. Most sugar-free, diatetic foods taste like the boxes they come in and often don't live-up to the health requirements we need. Most are more pricey than their regular counterparts but not this "sweetie".
My favorite is the Peanut Butter Chocolate Delight...a lusciously light flavor reminiscent of quality chocolate surrounding peanuts and crispies designed to stave off between meal munchies or replace a meal and makes the perfect delicious bedtime snack to maintain glucose levels for up to nine hours. These bars taste so good, I feel like I'm cheating on my food plan. I found that nibbling the bar encourages a more satisfied feeling and prolongs the pleasant experience of eating something yummy without the guilt or fear of high sugar levels. Other scrumptious flavors include Mixed Berry, Apple Cinnamon, Peanut and Chocolate Delights. I've shared ExtendBars with my doctors, friends and even strangers who ask me what I'm eating and want to know how to purchase them.
A light treat just added is ExtendCrisp;available in Cinnamon, White Cheddar, Honey BBQ, Italian Herb and Zesty Ranch, all designed as sweet and savory snacks that aid you in controlling your glucose levels and calorie intake while chasing away those blues about dieting and maintaining good health. Purchased by the box they are reasonably priced, don't wait...enjoy an Extend "Dreambar" today.
