All wholesome. Here are a few things to keep in mind

1. There is some sugar in amla candy.

2. Each 30 gram bar also has 24 grams of carbs and about 150 calories which is high for those watching their weight. Never have more than one at a time.

3. The protein content is very small. The apricot bar has less than one gram and the amla bar has about 1.5 gram of protein. The Indian diet is already carb-heavy.

4. Pricey at Rs.70.

Bottom Line: This is an excellent bar for athletes. The carbs provide needed energy and all the ingredients are wholesome with no added artificial flavors or preservatives. It is good snack for all of us when travelling or on the run. Eating this as your mid-morning or evening snack is a healthy alternative to other fried or sugar based snacks.
