Food Review - the Bulletproof Bar

I’ve tried to stay lean and fit all my adult life. For much of that time, I had lots of energy and skipped meals. I was into supplements and tried various snacks. I’ve tried most vitamin bars.

In the last year, Shashi and I have gotten into the Bulletproof thing, along with our paleo diet. “Bulletproof” is the brainchild of multi-millionaire Dave Asprey, who, after a huge investment and worldwide research, wrote “The Bulletproof Diet” and produced a line of products with great health benefits, and which also taste really good! You’ve probably heard of the coffee; it’s touted as the best, and has the least mold. It’s made at home with a dose of grass-fed butter, a shot of a superior form of coconut oil (known as MCT, “XCT” or - the best - “Brain Octane”), and a hit of grass-fed, pasture-raised beef gelatin, then blended. (I use a Vitamix.) The effect is sustained energy without the drop-off coffee usually has. One or two will get you through the day!

​Once we were hooked, we looked into the other Bulletproof products. My favorite among these is the bar, specifically the Vanillamax flavor. It puts any other “power bar” I’ve ever tried to shame. You’ll feel a jolt of energy with the first bite. It’s got 12 grams of protein and is gluten-free. It contains the collagen and oil of the coffee formula, and is based on cashew oil and cashews. (I like to keep dental floss handy.) Best snack ever, especially with a banana!
