Are granola bars healthy?

Granola bars aren't unhealthy. Though they do have a lot of sugar in them, like the previous contributor mentioned. They are fine to eat occasionally. However, two packets a day is too much. Since you get natural sugar from most foods you eat the added sugars are not going to do anything good for you.

-Too much fat

-Too much sugar; low in fiber

-Too Much Carbs

While brands like Quaker Oats and Nature Valley may be the kings of the granola bar aisle, they typically rank low in the hierarchy of good nutrition. Containing as many as 25 ingredients, 12 grams of sugar, and sugar-filled ingredients like a chocolate sheath, these babies can be almost as bad as eating a real candy bar (a Twix Bar contains around the same amount of calories and sugar as an average granola bar).

No all granola bars are bad. You just have to find the healthy ones :)

Best to visit your local health food store and see what they have. I'm sure you'll find more healthier bars without all the sugar and crap that is in them.

Most definitely not. Too much sugar and not enough protein or fiber
