Power bar good to eat?

Question

Is a power bar good to eat? Because I have a soccer tournament tomorrow and I'm planning on eating breakfast and a power bar in the morning

Answer 1

power bars don't always pump you up all the way. they give a little energy. you should eat bananas because they are like power bars... but more healthy. eat bread also... because those have carbs... and will give you energy!

Answer 2

Power bars (as well an energy drinks, which are pretty much the biggest scams in FDA history) only makes people feel energized because they have caffeine in them, giving you a temporary high and then a huge crash. People don't realize that companies who put out granola and power bars are looking to make money, too. And they only have to follow the basic FDA standards for ingredient listings. So you may not realize that the energy drink with 'electrolytes' is just sugar water with pretty coloring and some caffeine and the granola bar has more sugar than a bar of chocolate.

You'd get 20 times more energy eating an apple in the morning or eggs, both of which have massive nutrients and, in the case of eggs, loads of protein. you'll be more energized for a longer period. eat 2 or 3 scrambled eggs with some apple slices and a bottled water and you'll find that you'll be more energized all day. If you really need a caffeine jolt to wake yourself up, drink a small diet coke. The caffeine will wake you up. diet sugars are actually worse in terms of altering your energy than regular sugar, so don't do it all the time, but it's better than coffee for a quick jolt. plus it's cold, whereas warm coffee could give you a more queasy feeling in your stomach if you're running around.

Answer 3

Yes I would space them out eat breakfast, and then an hour or two later eat the power bar for a boost of extra protein and carbs.  Before your tournament.
