I would explain to her that the purpose of Induction is to rid your body of sugar and caffeine and sweets cravings. The endulge bars have sugar alcohols which can also give people bad side effects. (send you to the bathroom) The 3 net carbs on the label are impact carbs which means the impact carbs effect everyone's blood sugar differently. I have had endulge candy and they trigger my cravings for carbs and sugar so I don't eat them anymore. I guess Atkins developed these for people on the go or if we had a craving to cheat I guess eating an endulge bar is better then eating a snickers bar on Atkins. I would advise her not to have these or she won't have a clean induction.

Good Luck!
