Fred Harteis on TRIM ADVANTAGE
One of my favorite continuing wellness products is the TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bar.
I have a fast paced life style and place a high priority on being healthy. This is an excellent high protein, low carb solution for me and other health conscious Americans. It provides extra energy and makes a great snack before I work out. Ive been eating two bars a day for several years now.

Only four of the Total Carbohydrate grams in TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars convert easily to glucose, which are the kinds of carbs most people "count" on low-carb diets. However, all types of carbohydrates including fiber must be listed under Total Carbohydrates. Glycerin and maltitol, 16 of those grams, have a minimal effect on blood sugar. Fiber is not digested at all.

FAQs:
Can TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars be used as a meal replacement?
Protein Bars can indeed be used as a Meal Replacement Bar while following the TRIM ADVANTAGE Weight Management Program. Each bar contains 22 grams of high quality protein that provide all 9 essential amino acids, and only 1.5 grams of saturated fat. You should consider adding a piece of fruit (1 Fruit Pick) if you choose to use them as meal replacements.
TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars contains no sugar. What is used to sweeten them?
The sweetener in the Protein Bars is sucralose. Sucralose is a calorie-free sugar substitute that is approximately 600 times sweeter than sugar. It is derived from sucrose (sugar) and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration as a safe additive for food products. Sucralose is also used to sweeten the TRIM ADVANTAGE Sugar-Free Tropical Orange Drink Mix.
How should I use the TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars while Im on the program?
TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars are high-protein snacks used to help maintain a healthy diet. It is recommended that you use one or two a day as a nutritious snack; each one counts as 2 Protein Picks and one Fat Pick.
Are the TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars safe for use by diabetics?
Sucralose, the sweetener used in the Protein Bars, is acceptable for diabetics to use, as the body does not recognize it, passing it right through. Any questions about consuming the TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars should be discussed with your physician.
Is there any fiber in the Protein Bars? What about vitamins and minerals?
Yes. The Orange Crme flavor provides 2 g of fiber. The three other flavors Fudgy Brownie with Almonds, Roasted Peanut, and Chocolate Mint, each provide 1 g of fiber. The fiber found in the bars helps to contribute 5% of your total daily needs of this nutrient. You will also be consuming 200 mg of calcium and 1.4 mg of iron in each Protein Bar.
Do you use real peanuts in the Roasted Peanut flavor? I thought peanuts were high in fat.
Peanuts are a good source of monounsaturated fatty acids, comprising over 52% of the total fat in the nut. Monounsaturated fatty acids are also found in olive oil and show some potential for positive effects on health. The peanuts used in the product are partially defatted and dry roasted to control the amount of fat contribution from this ingredient.
What are the advantages of using whey protein as one of the protein sources?
Whey protein is a complete protein. This means that whey protein contains all essential amino acids that the body needs from the diet. Whey protein also has a low glycemic index, giving your body consistent energy after ingestion.
The Protein Bars are so filling. Why is that?
The Protein Bars are filling as they provide a large amount of protein. Calories and dietary fiber will also help to contribute to a this feeling as well. With the bars weighing 60 g each, each one gives your body a lot of healthy food to work on, making you feel full.
Is there any nutritional difference between the various flavors of the TRIM ADVANTAGE Protein Bars?
Although there are very slight differences in some categories (for example, the Fudgy Brownie Flavor with Almonds has 9 g fat while the Orange Crme flavor has 8 g of fat), they each have 22 g of protein made up of balanced amounts of the nine essential amino acids. You can find the complete nutritional breakdown for each bar on the side panel of the product carton or in the Nutritional Information section of the product page on quixtar.com.
Testimonials
"I ordered a pair of jeans, and when they came they were too tight. So my goal was to lose enough weight to fit into those jeans! I basically cut down on carbs and started using the Trim Advantage Protein Bars Id have one for breakfast or lunch, or even for a snack. Then I would have meat and veggies for dinner. I didnt worry too much about fat; I used nuts for snacks, too. The Protein Bars really made it so much easier because when youre doing low carb, sometimes you really want something sweet or something to chew. The Protein Bars fill both needs.
"I also made a great dessert: Warm up a Fudgy Brownie (or Chocolate Mint) Protein Bar for 11 seconds in the microwave and cut into pieces. Top with sliced strawberries and your favorite sugar substitute. Then add a teaspoon or two of cream. Yummy!"

"I started the program with the Trim Advantage Master Pack and lost 14 pounds within three months.

Whenever I gained back a few pounds, I simply start using the Drink Mixes and supplements for a few days until I get back to my original loss of 20 pounds.
"When the Protein Bars came out, I was thinking it was time to do something again. Now I've been taking a Protein Bar around lunchtime, sometimes along with a few raw vegetables. I feel like I've been eating desserts and brownies throughout the past nine months and keeping my weight off!
"It's been almost three years since I first started the Trim Advantage program, and I'm truly satisfied with the entire program. I think more people should stick with it and see what it can do for their self-esteem and lifestyle. And I looooooovee the Protein Bars all of them!"
