The bars come in three delicious flavors &#8211; vanilla blueberry, chocolate raspberry, and peanut butter strawberry.

Each bar contains what LUNA calls their \u2018Core 4 Combo\u2019 \u2013 calcium, iron, Vitamin D, and folic acid \u00a0&#8211; so you can eat deliciously without sacrificing nutrition one bit.<\/p>\n<p>The bars are also certified kosher and completely free of trans fats, hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, flavors , preservatives, and <strong><a title=\"shopper's guide to avoid GMOs\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/true-food-shoppers-guide-your-guide-to-non-gmo-foods\/\">ingredients sourced from GMOs<\/a><\/strong>. Why can&#8217;t all companies be like LUNA and put forth products with such integrity and quality?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/info-card-luna-bars.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/luna-introduces-new-fiber-bars-in-three-delicious-flavors\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-70271\" title=\"chocolate-luna-bar\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/chocolate-luna-bar.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/chocolate-luna-bar.jpg 450w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/chocolate-luna-bar-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I was able to sample the bars last week through a giveaway promotion and I must say, I was incredibly impressed with their flavor, texture and nutritional make-up. I expected the peanut butter strawberry to be my favorite but the blueberry vanilla gave it a run for its money as it tasted like a sweet, berry-filled fig newton.<\/p>\n<p>But the real winner? The chocolate strawberry. It tastes like chocolate cake, and not just in a healthy way. It would truly suffice as dessert for me, possibly even crumbled up over a scoop of chocolate ice cream.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m usually hesitant to buy bars of this kind because they tend to be high in sugar and contain way too many ingredients &#8211; many of which are unrecognizable. However, with this new line of fiber bars, LUNA has managed to keep the ingredients very pure and healthy, and two of the flavors &#8211; chocolate raspberry and vanilla blueberry &#8211; \u00a0are even vegan.<\/p>\n<p>Each bar contains between 110-120 calories with 7g fiber, along with essential nutrients women need. They&#8217;re also high in calcium and folic acid, and a good source of vitamin D, iron, and antioxidants (vitamins A, C and E). Each bar has between 1-2 grams of protein, 3-4 g of fat, and 11 grams of sugar. And their main <strong><a title=\"why you should eat fiber\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/08\/top-reasons-to-eat-fiber\/\">sources of fiber<\/a><\/strong> come from organic oat fiber, organic agave extract, chicory extract and whole grains. Sounds like one serious fiber serving to us.<\/p>\n<p>LUNA Fiber Bars will be on shelves as early as this week, so be sure to look for them at your local stores. They&#8217;re definitely worth a try in our opinion, especially the chocolate raspberry!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"luna cookies\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/we-love-luna-cookies\/\">We Love Luna Cookies<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"fruit 2 day\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/07\/we-love-fruit-2-day\/\">We Love Fruit 2 Day<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"greek yogurt\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/02\/we-love-greek-yogurt\/\">We Love Greek Yogurt<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re the snack bar type like me, then you have something new to rejoice over.
