Zone Perfect Chocolate Mint All-Natural Nutrition Bars Review

Trying to cut back on the bad things in my diet, I had a friend suggest trying out some of the Zone Perfect nutrition bars.  They are nutrition bars designed to help out your diet by removing some of the fat, and providing you with a good tasting treat that you can have between meals during the day.  I picked up a few of the bars at Safeway, and when I saw that one of the flavors available was Chocolate Mint, I couldn't pass up purchasing a couple of those.  The bars were selling at a price of $10.00 for 10 of them and a mixed and matched to buy several different options.

The chocolate mint Zone Perfect nutrition bar is a 1.76 ounce bar that has an inside of a nougat type consistency, but slightly drier in texture, surrounded by a chocolate coating that encases all of the ingredients.  Through-out the bar are pieces of the mint flavored chocolate that give the bar a nice taste, and combined with everything else gives it a nice texture to both the tongue and the taste-buds.  After the first bite, I think I was sold on this nutrition bar, and found it to be something I would try again.

The Zone Perfect bars, and specifically this one, are advertised as being an excellent source of protein, an excellent source of calcium, and being a good source of fiber.  The chocolate mint bars have 210 calories in them, with 24 grams of total carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, and 14 grams of protein.  The bar only has 7 grams of fat, making it a very nice dessert option if you are trying to watch your intake.  There are also a number of vitamins in the bars, including 100% of your daily need of Vitamin C, 100% of your Vitamin E, and 35% of your Vitamin A just to name a few.  It also has 20% of your needed calcium, which serves as a nice benefit to me.

I have become a quick fan of the Zone Perfect Chocolate Mint Nutritional bars, and have begun using them as as one of my options for either a mid-morning snack or something to tide me over between lunch and dinner.  They are quite tasty, and something I can highly recommend as a dietary replacement for your typical candy bars, and as something that can keep you metabolism working on all cylinders during the day.
