On the importance of protein
Fuel for thought: protein snacks can provide some of the energizing fuel you need to help get you through the day. When you’re scrambling to start the day and get the kids to school, a quick plant-based protein bar can be part of your 2-minute breakfast. Need an afternoon pick-me-up to tide you over between work and the gym? Protein bars are a great go-to snack. Searching for a nutritious treat for your kids’ lunch? Plant-based protein bars are a good go-to that’ll help them grow strong. While there are loads of protein sources on the market, SimplyProtein® makes plant-based bars in tasty flavours with inclusions like flax seeds and almonds that suit your everyday needs. (We have nut-free kid-sized, too!) Here’s why you need them in your lunchbox, desk drawer, pantry, purse, and more…
Protein feeds those pipes
Looking to build muscle mass? Protein’s got your back (and delts, biceps, abs, glutes…). Protein is made up of amino acids, which help build and repair muscles, leading to quicker recovery times after big workouts…and a faster return on those efforts. Combined with regular strength training, protein can keep those muscles strong as you age, as well. So, the next time you’re rushing to the gym, consider SimplyProtein® – which packs a whopping 12 grams of protein and two grams of sugar per bar – to help power you through.
Protein snacks give a little push
Feeling a mid-day lull and needing an extra push to power you through the rest of the day? Protein is your pal. It hits those hunger pangs square in the stomach, and helps you set about the next tasks on your to-do list, whether it’s finishing a long days’ work, hitting the gym, meeting with friends, or bussing the kids to and from practice. With smart snacks like SimplyProtein® in your proverbial back pocket, you’ll have the extra fuel you need to help you take on the day!
Amp up your protein intake
Whether your goals target general health, muscle gain, or simple quick and convenient snacks to help support your busy lifestyle, SimplyProtein® has the answers to what you need. High in protein and mindful about sugar, their range of bars offer the plant-based, protein-packed snacks you need. Furthermore, health buffs will be happy to know that their range of flavours – which were recently reformulated and include Peanut Butter Chocolate, Dark Chocolate Almond, Lemon Coconut Flavour and Chocolate Coconut – are also gluten-free, rich in fibre, do not contain dairy, and are non-GMO Project Verified. The fact that they’re tasty to boot? That’s a total bonus.
Think beyond the plant-based protein bar
Sure, SimplyProtein® snacks are packaged in convenient bars, but you’ll love them so much, you might want to explore possibilities beyond the snack on the run. Try crumbling the Chocolate Coconut on your next berry smoothie bowl. Chop up their Lemon Coconut Flavour and add crunch to your yogurt and berry parfait. Chop up Dark Chocolate Almond and add to your trail mix of granola, nuts and dried fruit. Think beyond the bar with our plant-based proteins, and enjoy endless options beyond the snacking.
