 Tastiest and best nutrition of any energy bar |

I love these bars, I'm so glad that Amazon has started carrying them, as it's difficult to find them in sufficient quantities! I literally eat one or two a day, and though a number of grocery and healthfood stores carry them, they often don't have the full cases I need.
The low GI takes a little getting used to at first - you won't get an instant sugar rush like you will from other energy bars, but an hour or two later, you'll still be sated and won't be craving more carbs.
Great science, great taste (I prefer the chocolate and chocolate mint, but my wife prefers the berry and lemon), and these make it easy to get the healthy small meals I need to maintain even blood sugar levels (no, I'm not diabetic, but I've lost significant weight and kept it off by switching to a low-GI diet and more frequent, smaller meals). |

| Excellent bar with great taste and I love the fact of low glycemic. The chocolate tastes like chocolate and not chalky like other items I have tried. |

I have searched high and low (no pun intended) for a convenient snack bar that tastes great and does not spike blood sugar. I cannot tolerate Aspartame, Splenda or any of the other artificial sweeteners out there and trying to find products that have stevia or agave nectar are not that easy (and those I've found have honestly not been that great).
These chocolate bars have a wonderful, chewy texture and they taste (to me)like a regular candy bar. Obviously, you can't go crazy and eat the whole box at once (although you will be tempted), but these wonderful bars will give those who try to eat low on the glycemic index the opportunity to enjoy a real treat.
Although the other members of my family are not bound by the same dietary restrictions, they LOVED these bars. I can tell they are going to be the treats of choice in my house. I can't wait to try the other flavors. |
Great Stuff

| These protein bars are delicious!! Plus they work as advertised. They do not leave you craving for more sugar, which is my downfall. Great product wish it was available locally, as I don't like running out and having to plan my ordering. |
taste's great

| These bars are really tasty - not too sweet, no artificial sweetener aftertaste. I'd tried balance bars and these are way better. I was surprised at how well they stemmed my hunger and levelled my blood sugar for several hours. They are also large and substantial, you really feel as if you've eaten something. |
great for type 1 diabetic

| I have tried quite a few chocolate energy bars and this is by far the best-tasting chocolate bar out there! I am a diabetic and keep these on hand. The Solo bars keep your blood sugar stable and work well for snacks and prior to exercise. One great benefit: for me, these work really well when I want something chocolatey. They satisfy my chocolate craving in a healthy way! |
Hands down, best chocolate nutrition bar

| The chocolate Solo bar (haven't tasted the other flavors) is by far the best nutrition bar I've tried. Delicious! And you feel good, too! At $1.99 per bar at my health food store, the Amazon price is a steal. |
good tasting help for losing weight

| The glycemic index does not take away the WANTING to eat but you feel Full and it is easier to do what is good for you. Being a diabetic my problems are harder to deal with and these truly helped. |

| Seeing the all the positive reviews, I figured I would give these bars a try and maybe to have an alternative bar for all Atkins bars I eat. So much for the good reviews, and supposed use by Olympic athletes. First thing I noticed the pronounced chocholate flavor which overpowers your taste buds. The bars also have a rather bland and sugary taste. I have tried all the Aktins bars, and virtually all of them are superior to this bar (I have no affiliation with Atkins). All my family members pretty much agreed with my opinions on the taste. These bars fit into the category of the barely edible health bars (the great majority of health bars are awful). Maybe other brands of Solo are better, but I'm not going to waste my money trying them. |
