SPECIAL DIETARY NEEDS

1: Is PowerBar Pria organic? All Natural? Vegan?

PowerBar Pria contains protein-enriched soy crisps and other minimally processed ingredients but is not certified organic or all natural. The vitamins and minerals used are all derived from natural sources, with the exception of Vitamin E. All Pria flavors can be part of a vegetarian diet that includes dairy products. Please check the Nutrition Facts on the label for more information. There are no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives in any of the bars.


2: Is it safe to eat PowerBar Pria during my pregnancy?

Absolutely safe, and good for you. PowerBar Pria contains folic acid - a B-vitamin which has been found to reduce the risk of neural tube birth defects when taken before and early in pregnancy - as well as ingredients like antioxidant vitamin C, iron and protein that your body needs during pregnancy. However, if you are sensitive to any of the ingredients listed on the label, you should not eat these bars. Check with your obstetrician for more information.


3: Can children eat PowerBar? Pria?

Pria is an ideal snack for active, growing children because it is high in vitamins, a good source of minerals and provides an excellent source of calcium important to growing bones and teeth. Kids love the crispy, chewy texture covered in chocolatey or yogurt coating. And because its smaller than most energy bars, children can finish a whole bar, leaving no waste. Because they need to eat a variety of foods for a well-balanced diet, we recommend children under six be limited to one bar per day. PowerBar Pria bars make a nutritious addition to a childs balanced diet. Consult your pediatrician for more information.


4: I'm lactose intolerant. Can I eat PowerBar Pria?

Five of the six flavors contain some dairy products. The amount of lactose is small (approximately 0.15 g per bar), so nearly all lactose-intolerant people may consume it. Consult with your physician for more information.


5: I have food allergies. Can I eat PowerBar Pria?

If you are allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, milk, soy, or gluten (from wheat or barley) you should not eat PowerBar Pria bars.

Peanuts/Nuts: Although only one flavor, Chocolate Peanut Crunch, contains peanuts, all Pria bars are made on equipment that processes products with peanuts and/or nuts. So, if you have peanut or nut allergies, we recommend that you do not eat PowerBar Pria. Consult with your physician for more information.
Milk: Although the Double Chocolate Cookie flavor does not contain any milk ingredients, all Pria bars are made on equipment that processes products with dairy. If you are allergic to milk, we recommend that you do not eat Pria bars. Consult with your physician for more information.
Soy: All PowerBar? Pria? flavors contain soy ingredients. If you are allergic to soy, we recommend that you do not eat Pria bars. Consult with your physician for more information.

6: Are there any Trans Fatty Acids in PowerBar Pria bars?

PowerBar Pria bars do not contain any trans fats.

Trans fatty acids are substances that, depending on intake and total dietary patterns, can raise total blood cholesterol levels, and can raise LDL (bad) cholesterol and lower HDL (good) cholesterol.

Currently, the FDA does not require food manufacturers to list trans fats on nutritional labels. However, the FDA will soon be publishing a final rule that will require food manufacturers to begin listing trans fatty acids, if the product contains more than 0.5 grams per serving. According to the proposed rule, PowerBar Pria bars would claim (0) zero trans fats.


7: Do PowerBar products contain Genetically Modified Ingredients?

PowerBar uses ingredients that meet our high quality standards and are in full compliance with U.S. government regulations.

Genetically modified (GM) crops grown in the US have been reviewed extensively by the FDA, USDA and EPA, who have determined that GM crops are as safe as their conventional counterparts.

Because the use of GM crops does not affect the safety or quality of the ingredients made from them, we do not require that our suppliers specify the origin of the crops they use.


STORAGE TIPS

1: How should I store PowerBar Pria bars?

For the best eating experience, PowerBar Pria should be kept between 40 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent the chocolatey or yogurt coating from melting. No need to refrigerate.


2: How long will my Pria bars last?

Each Pria bar is stamped with a best by date. Although it is safe to eat Pria after this date, we recommend that you use Pria by the best by date to ensure youre getting the full nutritional benefits of the product
