Does anyone have an easy recipe for a not-sweet, low-glycemic, high protein bar, or a storebought one? Obviously gf.
I work out and keep my diabetes in remission, but drinking Glucerna and eating NuGo Slim protein bars. I find other brands way too sweet. I cut out sugar a couple of years ago. Have it only on occasion. And I don't eat maltitol or xylitol or that family. If I add sweeteners, it's stevia.
I'm on the go a lot, so this really helps keep blood sugar level. I absolutely hate bars with dates or cane sugar, that are meant for sweet tastes.
BUT, the downside is I need to cut back on fats, and I failed to notice that both Glucerna and nuGo Slim have a lot of saturated fats. I was on Zocor, have been given permission to go off it, but I want to control this with diet. Otherwise, I'm a healthfood nut, so I'm embarrassed that I somehow missed how high in fat both products are.
I'm no youngster...but I need recommendations from athletic, busy people who don't go for sweets, but need protein. I realize that the reason the bars fill you up is the fat. There must be some healthy recipes for non-perishable real food.
Thanks.
