The "Net Carbs" are calculated by subtracting the dietary fiber (5g), and other low glycemic carbohydrates including sugar alcohols (8g) and glycerine (3g) from the total carbohydrates (19g). Individuals who monitor their carbohydrate intake may deduct these low glycemic carbohydrates from the "Total Carb" count (in the Nutrition Facts box) due to their minimal impact on blood sugar levels.

Conversion of maltitol, erythritol, and xylitol (the sugar alcohol portion of carbohydrates in these products) and glycerine requires little or no insulin and does not cause a significant increase in serum glucose levels. However, people with diabetes should consult their physician or health professional about including sugar alcohols and glycerine in their daily diet. Glycerine is counted as a carbohydrate in all PaleoBars.

PaleoBars contain no:
Gluten
Hydrogenated or trans fats
Simple sugars, i.e. sucrose, fructose, glucose or concentrated fruit sweeteners
Wheat, corn, or soy protein
Artificial flavors or sweeteners
All PaleoBars™ are Kosher certified (Kosher Certified by Tablet-K)!!
Contains Alpha Lipoic Acid (50 mg) and Chromium (100 mcg)
Fiber from rice protein powder and polyols
PaleoBar is the delicious nutrition bar designed to provide a healthy, high protein snack food for optimizing the intake of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and micronutrients. PaleoBar comes in a choice of four great tasting flavors, chocolate coated, vanilla almond coated, uncoated dairy-free chocolate, and uncoated dairy-free coconut almond!
Vanilla Almond and Chocolate PaleoBar are made with an exceptional quality whey protein. Uncoated Chocolate and Uncoated Coconut Almond are dairy-free and are made with rice protein. Since rice protein is considered to be the least allergenic of all protein sources available, these uncoated bars will be the definite choice for those with whey or soy protein sensitivities.
Please note also that all the PaleoBars are made primarily with two high quality fat sources, almond butter and coconut oil. Almond butter is high in healthy monounsaturated fat and coconut oil is high in lauric acid. Lauric acid has been noted in several studies for its antiviral and antibacterial functions (German JB & Dillard CJ. Saturated fats: what dietary intake? Am J Clin Nutr, Vol. 80, No. 3, pp. 550-9, Sept 2004).

What About the Carbohydrate Content?The sweeteners
The sweeteners used in PaleoBars include the polyols, maltitol, erthritiol, and xylitol. Note the following information pertaining to the characteristics of these sweeteners. (Unless otherwise noted, this information is taken from Alternative Sweeteners, Third Edition, Revised and Expanded (O'Brien Nabors L ed., Marcel Dekker, Inc. New York, 2001):
How do these sweeteners taste?
Maltitol has 85-95% of the sweetness of sucrose, making it sweeter than all other polyols except xylitol which has a taste remarkably similar to sucrose. Erythritol has 65% of the sweetness of sucrose and is also similar in taste. Xylitol is the sweetest of the three, tasting about 20% sweeter than sucrose.
Do any of these sweeteners contribute to dental cavities?
When sugars are metabolized by microorganisms in the mouth, they form acids that erode tooth enamel and lead to cavities. Maltitol, erythritol, and xylitol are not metabolized by oral bacteria and therefore do not cause acid production. Foods that do not cause a drop in pH lower than 5.7 in 30 minutes are certified as safe for teeth. None of these sugars drop the oral pH below 5.7. Therefore, all are considered to be noncariogenic (i.e. they do not cause cavities). Furthermore, research suggests that xylitol is not only noncariogenic but it may also actively prevent tooth decay.*
Do any of these sweeteners have a laxative effect?
Erythritol has almost zero laxation effect. Maltitol syrup has a laxation threshold of 100 grams per serving. Xylitol has a laxation threshold of 50 grams per serving. Each bar contains approximately 10 grams total polyols.
Are these sugars safe for diabetics?
While it is important that diabetics consult their physician before using any sweetener, available research demonstrates that maltitol, erythritol and xylitol all have minimal effects on blood sugar and insulin. Studies show that maltitol does not produce marked elevations in blood sugar. Erythritol affects neither blood glucose nor insulin. In the case of xylitol, increases in blood sugar levels have not been demonstrated and plasma levels of insulin only moderately rise if at all, depending on the study.
Do these sugars have any other health benefits?
Maltitol has prebiotic and dietary fiber characteristics that promote the growth of healthy gut flora (Oku T et al. Metabolic fate of ingested maltitol in man, J Nutr Sci Vitaminol (Tokyo), 1991, Oct;37(5):529-44). Xylitol may reduce acute otitis media occurrence because it reduces the growth of Streptococcus pneumonia.*
All PaleoBars are low in "effective carbohydrate." What does this mean?
Effective carbohydrate content refers to the content of any sugar, disaccharide or starch composed of glucose, fructose, or galactose. Glucose causes a significant insulin response, while fructose and galactose cause a minimal one. Furthermore, excessive fructose consumption increases the risk of developing insulin resistance. PaleoBars are free of fructose and contain, instead, polyols that occur naturally in fruits and vegetables and have a caloric value of 2.1 Kcal/g.
Is there a concern with fructose, the sweetener commonly used in health bars?
While fructose in fruits may be acceptable, fructose added to foods may have undesirable health effects. Animal studies show that fructose can accelerate aging and increase the need for vitamin E and lipoic acid. Human research suggests that excessive fructose consumption may be one of the causes behind the insulin resistance and obesity epidemic in America. For optimal health, limit your fructose consumption to natural sources such as fruits (Elliott SS et al. Fructose, weight gain, and the insulin resistance syndrome, Am J Clin Nutr, 2002, Nov; 76(5):911-22). Click here to download Paleobar PDF file
