Product Summary
Your main struggle with this bar might be deciding what flavor is your favorite! Many customers felt that it was just like taking a bite of a soft cookie and works absolutely perfect to eat before or after a good workout. This higher-calorie protein bar option can also be great if you are in the bulking phase of your macrocycle, but want to make sure you’re getting the most punch for your calories.
Part of the higher calorie count comes from the natural ingredients, including honey that is used to bind everything together. Sometimes you get that with whole ingredients, but remember that you are getting high-quality calories with no fillers or additives. If you struggle with craving sweets and need a healthier option to fill that spot, this bar could be a good option for you.
All Authentic bars are manufactured in the US at facilities that have been cGMP-certified. They take their responsibilities seriously, not only to the health and fitness industry but also to the environment and sustainability of their business.

Summary
Jacked Factory Authentic Bars are made with whey protein isolate, real nut butters, and honey for a whole-food yet convenient protein option. Although they’re high in calories compared to other options, that’s the tradeoff for refraining from using artificial sweeteners and ingredients.
