“As a type 1 diabetic and an Endocrinologist, I have found Granola Gourmet bars to have a lower glycemic impact than other popular bars I’ve eaten. The texture and flavor are unmatched and they truly live up to their name. I’d recommend this product as great snack for adults and children of all ages that want a delicious and healthy food.”

“As a practicing Cardiologist for over 20 years I have first hand experience working to reduce the impact that Diabetes and Obesity has on adults. Among the most difficult issues these patients have is will power. Constant deprivation of tasty and quality snacks often leads to consumption of unhealthy treats that compound the problems that diabetic and overweight patients have.
Granola Gourmet Granola bars have been a big hit with these patients. The bars are an excellent nutrition source and taste great. Our diabetic and weight loss patients finally have a healthy snack that keeps them from being deprived. Our biggest problem is that they taste so great that our staff keeps devouring them!”

“As a pediatrician for over thirty years, I have been involved with many of the important issues faced by children in our society. Obesity fueled by poor nutrition is a critical challenge we face with and for our children today.
After evaluating the offerings of Granola Gourmet I find that these granola bars are more like a treat not just a snack. The flavors and textures are great however, the nutritional profile makes them an excellent replacement for the high calorie, high fat snacks being eaten today.
These bars are an important addition to our battle with obesity as they offer an attractive alternative to many of the unhealthy snack foods that add to the burden of obesity in our society. I love them!”

“For over 30 years I have been studying the connection between cancer and nutrition and have found thousands of scientific articles documenting a strong link between the two. Among other dietary approaches, eating foods that are low in sugar and high in fiber helps to prevent, control or reduce the spread of this terrible disease.
“Granola Gourmet has made the experience of eating a healthy snack easy and delicious. High in fiber and low in fat, sugar and sodium, this product is high on my list for both preventing and managing cancer.
