Know your food so you can #noyourfood™.

There are 101 protein products on the shelves of supermarkets and health food stores everywhere. But are they really as good for you as the marketing says?

Only you can decide what you want to consume, I simply encourage you to develop a habit of reading labels so you're aware of what you're putting into your body.

Reading the front label of this product would leave you thinking that it's a good choice and with a name like Raspberry Truffle, you're also thinking it's going to be yummy.

But when you think about all the ingredients on that ingredient list and how much processing each individual ingredient had to go through and then how much processing the whole concoction had to go through to give you the chewy tasty mouth sensation that will (in the eyes of the company) hopefully have you coming back for more, think about what your body has to do with it to extract the goodness (if indeed there is any) from it.

Protein bars are often purchased as a "healthy treat" and they're also often eaten in unhealthy amounts simply because we feel "we're doing something good for ourselves". Don't fall for slick marketing. The only weight manufacturers are interested in helping you with is relieving you of the weight of your wallet.
