Flavor: Flax & Raisin

This variety received two thumbs up from our tasters.  The almonds help to mix up the texture, creating a more pleasant eating experience than the pure seed bar.  This one has a touch more sugar, sweetness, and flavor due to the added raisins. 

Nutiva Bar Overall Review

There is nothing deceiving about the Nutiva line of nut and seed bars, what you see is what you taste.  Each bar is loaded with vegetarian proteins and heart healthy oils from the rich blend of seeds and nuts.  Their “for the birds” bars, as we like to call them, are bound together by pure honey.  We really like this ingredient mix for excellent post-workout healing, re-energizing, and muscle support.  Nutiva balances out the higher calorie nuts and seeds by staying light on the overall sugars.  Although higher in fat, it should offer more lasting energy during those mid-day cravings, at a lower calorie price tag than most snack bars. 

  • Pros:  Low sugar; Omega-3’s; Simple ingredients
  • Cons: A bit difficult to chew, due to the high content of seeds; For some, the flavor may be too simple

Recommended For: 

  • Post-Workout
  • Heart-healthy Afternoon Snack
  • Nut & Seed Lovers

Where to Buy:

  • Online - Nutiva's webstore isn't up, but you can buy direct from Amazon
  • In Stores - Throughout the U.S. and Canada, see www.Nutiva.com for a store locator
