Default 3 carb bars by Biox

3 carb bars by Biox

Are these good to eat on Atkins? They taste great! (peppermint/chocolate)

1 bar = 56.7 gms
energy = 234 cal
protein = 19 gms
fat = 8 gms
carbs = 23 gms (2.6 gms net impact carbs) **
glycreine & maltitol = 20 gms

** net impact carbs are carbs that "carb counting" people need to
be concerned with.

(alot cheaper than Atkins bars)

If you don't have an issue with sugar alcohols (they stall weightloss for many of us) then brand shouldn't matter.

Hi Ridler, welcome!

As Lisa says, sugar alcohols (maltitol etc) can be a problem for many people. Some of also have issues with the laxative effect and bellyaches they produce!

Have a look at "Low Carb Tips" on the orange bar at the top of the screen. Doreen T has written a great article there explaining the ins and outs of sugar alcohols.

Cheers.

Rosebud
