PR Nutrition Bar product review

Testing products and gear is a blast.  When the product is food... even better.   
The good folks at PR Nutrition sent me a box of PR Bars and a customized Adaptive Nutrition Program to try out. 
The PR*Bar Fastburn Nutrition Program includes a personalized nutrition/ weight loss plan based on your lean body mass, individual requirements, and weekly training. According to PR Bars, the program "aids in losing body fat, enhancing athletic performance, building lean muscle, and improving his or her nutrition...".
The keys to the Fast Burn Nutrition Weight Loss Program:
  • Use of stored body fat for energy
  • Reduces hunger and sugar cravings for 3-6 hours
  • Increased levels of physical and mental energy
  • Less fatigue, light-headedness, and mood swings
  • Improved tissue repair and recovery, resulting in fewer injuries
  • Increased metabolism as a result of an increase in lean body mass
 I thought the PR Bars were great tasting.  The Chocolate Peanut was my favorite.  Their new Granola Peanut Butter was a close second.  I used them for breakfast and for my mid-morning, mid-afternoon snack.  They performed well.  The Chocolate Peanut did not fare so well in my backpack due to the heat, so the Granola Peanut Butter is probably a better "take-along" choice.  Some of the features that caught my attention:
  • all natural
  • gluten free
  • 15 grams of protein
  • no sugar alcohols
My PR Bars arrived with a personalized nutrition program that laid out an easy-to-understand nutrition/ meal program.   The plan was based on the details I submitted on a simple questionnaire detailing lean body mass, gender, height, weight, activites and weekly workout load.   I like their bars and their approach to the endurance world.  They are not just selling a nutrition bar, they are encouraging better nutrition for improved performance and better overall health and body composition.  
PR BARS have been named the Official Performance Nutrition Bar of the U.S. Olympic Team.
