NuGo Slim Gluten Free Protein Bars Review and Giveaway

If you haven’t heard of @NuGoNutrition then you’re in for a real treat! These gluten free protein bars are rich in flavor, and are very satisfying. They sent us all 3 flavors: Raspberry Truffle, Roasted Peanut, and Brownie Crunch bars to taste-test. Wow! For being low in sugar, these bars are fantastic! I’ve had their NuGo Free bars, which I’ve always enjoyed, but the NuGo Slim Bars seem to taste better to me. Perhaps it is because I’m not a big sugar person. They are made with all natural ingredients. NuGO Slim Bars are made with a natural dietary fiber, chicory root. Then, they dip them in real dark chocolate which contains antioxidants and only adds 2g of sugar, but makes all the difference in the world when it comes to the taste. NuGO Slim is the only low sugar protein bar without artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols, like maltitol, which can cause gastric distress and and an aftertaste. They are certified gluten-free, Kosher, all-natural, 2g sugar, and high in protein and fiber.

The 3 bars that were sent to us range from 170-190 calories and contain 7 grams of fiber. Sugar amounts are all 2 grams and protein levels are between 15-16.

My fave was the Brownie Crunch, but I also enjoyed the, Raspberry Truffle, which is unusual, as I am not usually a fan of raspberry. My husband is a fan of peanuts, and absolutely loved the Roasted Peanut bar, as well as all of the other flavors.

NuGo was kind enough to sponsor a gluten free giveaway. See the details below.

I just discovered NuGo yesterday at a race expo and was so pleased to find a bar that is Gluten Free with protein and tastes awesome! I have eaten 5 bars thus far and had them pre/post race and were perfect! So glad I found these bars....but would love to sample more flavors other than dark choc pretzel-which is phenomenal!!!!

I'm fairly new to the gluten free way of living. It's been challenging to find good snack bars to replace some favorites that I had. These sound like they'd be just the thing! I'd love to try them out!

I think I am gluten intolerant...every time I eat regular pasta or white bakery bread, I have heartburn I am hoping to buy some gluten free products, and this is a start. Please enter me in your drawing. I will post on my Pinterest when I remember my password.
