Life is a constant struggle, and to keep up with the demands of life-\u00a0you have to be in excellent shape.<\/p>\n

And that spells exercise and high protein diets and a big bye bye to\u00a0gluten..the evil that truly sabotages your life..<\/p>\n

Most of the time, the protein bars that you get, are not as healthy\u00a0as they sound.<\/p>\n

I was quite intrigued by Battle oats<\/a> and when I got these bars to review, I couldn’t wait to try them.<\/p>\n

1. Dark Choc\u00a0Chip<\/span>: They taste as healthy as they claim- a mouthful of goodness, no after taste or heaviness.. and man they keep you full for hours and full of energy.<\/p>\n

Not overly sweet, or very chocolatey,but I think I could detect the coconut oil. I would like it a bit more chocolatey though!<\/p>\n

2. Cranberry & Blue berry Fusion:<\/span><\/p>\n

I loved this one. The taste was much nicer, crunchy and although you couldn’t spot much blueberry\/ cranberry , you could taste it throughout the bar.<\/p>\n

Nice, crunchy, sweet and filling.<\/p>\n

I’d choose this bar over the chocolate one.<\/p>\n

Taste apart, as far as nutrition details go, this is what the Battleoats<\/span> guys have to say for themselves.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

High Protein<\/p>\n

High Fibre- goodness of Oats<\/p>\n

Real butter & coconut oil<\/p>\n

Keeps you full for hours.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My verdict- they’re good- especially the Crancerry \/ Blueberry ones.<\/p>\n

GO FOR IT!<\/p>\n
