Fibre-Boost is proudly Australian made and owned by health professionals. We consume our bars daily, together with our partners, children and families. We wouldn’t risk our health, or those of our loved ones with inferior ingredients. FYI - Nutritional Information maybe different for each flavour, we have supplied 2 variants of Nutritional Information from highest to the lowest of contents in sugar. every other flavours nutritional Information is between these values. The Fibre Boost Cold Pressed Bars difference The ingredients – Our Fibre is a non GMO soluble blend, specially formulated for our company using natural ingredients (derived from corn). Our Protein Blend includes locally produced, micro-filtered, grass fed, additive free, non-denatured, non GMO, Soy-free, protein. We add in a specially made, super fine, Raw Blanched Almond milk paste for our added healthy, hormone balancing, essential fats. Sweetened solely with the use of a rare type of pure Stevia, using only the tips of the stevia leaf, there is no bitterness. We don’t use any type of sugar alcohols or any other non-natural sweetener. Our Natural Flavours are approved by FSANZ (Food standards Australia New Zealand) as being an essential oil or extract from a plant source. Generally fermented and blended to mimic or match flavours. We try and source our other ingredients, such as our semi dried Fruits and Nuts locally, organic when possible. When we can’t, such as with our Organic Cocoa Butter from Peru, for own hand made chocolate (due to it’s superior quality), we ensure that it is from a sustainable source. That’s pretty much it for our ingredients, we keep it as short as possible. Quality over quantity and nothing added without a real purpose that we would think twice about consuming ourselves. The process – We don’t de-nature our ingredients by exposing them to heat like other health bars on the market. We are the true Cold Pressed bar company. Minimal premium ingredients, sourced locally where possible. We make them for our families to consume without guilt, knowing that we couldn’t make them any healthier, any other way. The benefits – We’re not here to educate you about the benefits of certain ingredients, to guide you on health or advise you on the latest or best diet to lose weight and/or gain muscle. We will happily however point out the facts as we know it, to better understand why we chose the ingredients we did to formulate our bars. Fibre – Yes as our name clearly states, FIBRE-BOOST, we are here to boost your fibre intake. Something that is severely lacking with most diets, especially Keto and other low carb diets. Why more fibre? Soluble Fibre collects bile. Metabolic waste, hormones and other chemicals so they can be eliminated from your body. Without it, waste can and often does get re-absorbed into your intestines and then re-circulated through your body causing a toxic environment. This messes with your general and mental health as well as your hormones. Pre-biotic Fibre feeds the good bacteria in your GI tract. It improves digestion and metabolism as well as the absorption of other minerals such as calcium. It helps regulate blood sugar and insulin resistance, aids in appetite suppression and lowers inflammation. Protein – As we all know, protein is an essential macro nutrient. So why more protein? Reduces appetite and hunger – Calorie for Calorie, Protein is the most filling macro nutrient as well as the fact that it reduces the hunger hormone ghrelin. Making weight loss easier and more sustainable. Burns calories. This is referred to as the thermic effect of food (TEF). Your body utilises a lot of energy (calories) digesting food. Especially protein, which has a higher thermic affect than fat or carbs. Especially from a whole source (not a protein drink). Increases muscle mass and strength. This might not be important to everyone , however protein also helps prevent muscle loss during weight loss and for those who love their carbs, the bigger your muscles, the more room you have for storage before carbohydrate overspill (conversion to fat). Protein for that reason also helps your body repair after injury. Beneficial for bone health. Studies show that people who eat more protein tend to maintain bone mass better as they age and have a much lower risk of osteoporosis and fractures (especially important for women who are at a high risk after menopause). Reduces Cravings and increases Dopamine levels. There are a multitude of studies on both men and women that showed an increase in protein, especially during the day, reduced cravings at night and keeps you in a better mood. There are a lot more health benefits, including lowering blood pressure, reducing bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides, reducing the risk of obesity, metabolic syndrome, non alcoholic fatty liver and cardiovascular disease. Fat – Almond Milk Paste is a nutrient dense food that has the majority (over 80%) of it’s fats being Monounsaturated Fat. Due to the process we use, the paste is not only raw but also ground super-fine so it can travel through your blood stream to maximise the health benefits. Mono-unsaturated fats can help reduce bad cholesterol levels (LDL) in your blood, which can lower your risk of heart disease and stroke. It can also boost testosterone production and therefore aid in reducing depression in men and women.
