paleo diet foods-what are the 3 protein bar ingredients and how to avoid these?

Let me inform you an important paleo diet foods fact, most protein bars that you see in stores or online are FAKE health foods. They promote themselves as healthy but in reality they are TERRIBLE for you. These days it’s impossible to find protein bars that are made from real food.

In reality the often include many of these 5 toxic ingredients that you should never eat. The first toxic ingredient is soy protein and not only is soy notoriously unhealthy, but the majority of it is derived from genetically modified soybeans, which studies have shown causes significant inflammation and even tumors.

Soya also contains goitrogens which can basically depress thyroid function and lead to fatigue, depression, constipation, trouble thinking clearly and many more. The second toxic ingredient is high fructose corn syrup.

However, despite what the corn industry says, high fructose corn syrup is toxic and always made of GMO corn. This harmful product contains dangerous amounts of chemicals and contaminants that can cause heavy poisoning in large doses.

So it’s not surprising that high fructose corn syrup can lead everything from diabetes, heart attacks, cancer, obesity, metabolic syndrome and more. The third toxic ingredient is artificial sweeteners. Although artificial sweeteners are marketed as low calorie, they ruin your metabolism and can even result in more weight gain than simple sugar.

Artificial sweeteners can dramatically increase your risk of obesity and metabolic syndrome, so they are definitely on the NEVER EAT list. So these are just a few of many toxic ingredients you can find and I am not including canola oil, corn starch, partially hydrogenated oils and trans fat since the list is endless.
