Granola Bars

I know they are high in carbs, but I am not sure what kind of carbs. Is it just crappy sugar carbs? -------------- - Its never about how much you can lift, or how many reps you do.

And according to its nutritional facts they are only 1 or 2 grams of fat per bar. But it wasn't the fat I was worrying about, rather the sugar carbs. I figured as much though. There is no way I could afford protien bars (they are like 2 bucks a bar), but maybe I could replace the granola with some other complex carb from a bread or fruit. Any suggestions? -------------- - Its never about how much you can lift, or how many reps you do. Its just about doing it, and doing it right. - If your hungry all the time, your not eating enough.

	2004/01/07, 10:14 AM I've had this same question for quite some time. If my granola bars are 37 grams of carbs and 12 come from sugars, I feel like I could be doing a lot worse. Am I way off here? -------------- OSU Law Rugby....specializing in personal injury and pain & suffering.
