According to the product specialist
Pros
Made with natural ingredients, such as organic oatmeal, nuts and fruit (varies per flavour). |
Each energy bar contains vitamins B6 and B12 which contribute to the gradual supply of energy to the body. |
The Energy bar is a rich source of carbohydrates, protein and fibre for prolonged activity. |
Due to the large size (55 grams) one Maxim Energy Bar delivers approximately 35 grams of carbohydrates. It's a great source of energy! |
The low protein content contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass without affecting the energy intake. |
The Maxim Energy Bar contains minerals which support the fluid intake and balance. |
Mix of carbs, electrolytes, and proteins; suited for use before, during, and after exercise. |
With 25.5 grams of carbohydrates per bar, the Ride Energy Bar is on par with other energy bars. |
With 10.7 grams of protein per bar, the Ride Energy Bar contains the ideal amount of protein for post-exercise recovery. |
Added magnesium contributes to normal muscle function. |
Cons
It is recommended to drink water with the Energy Bar to avoid feeling hungry. |
The large size makes the energy bar harder to consume at a high heart rate. |
High level of protein and fats results in slower absorption by the body. |
