Buying Considerations: Defining "Clean"

"Healthy" is a subjective term, but ingredients don't lie. Here is what to look for when shopping our clean snack aisle:

1. The Protein Source

• Whey Isolate/Concentrate: Derived from dairy. Fast-absorbing and complete amino acid profile. Look for "Grass-Fed" for superior quality.

   

• Egg White: A complete protein that is dairy-free and highly digestible.

   

• Plant-Based (Pea/Rice/Hemp): Great for vegans. American-grown peas are a common, sustainable source for domestic plant protein.

2. Sweeteners: Natural vs. Artificial We prioritize brands that avoid high fructose corn syrup.

• Natural Sugars: Dates, honey, maple syrup, coconut sugar. (Good for energy, but have calories).

• Low-Glycemic: Stevia, Monk Fruit, Erythritol, Allulose. (Great for Keto/Diabetics, minimal impact on blood sugar).

3. Processing Levels Look at the ingredient list length. A general rule of thumb for clean eating: if you can't find the ingredient in a home kitchen, think twice. Our "Whole Food" bars often contain fewer than 6 ingredients.

4. Dietary Certifications Because these products are made in the USA, their labeling is strictly regulated.

• Gluten-Free (GF): Essential for Celiac or sensitivity.

• Keto: High fat, moderate protein, very low carb.

• Paleo: No grains, dairy, legumes, or refined sugar.

• Whole30 Approved: The strictest standard for eliminating inflammatory food groups.
