Disclaimer: I have received two complimentary boxes of Keto Watt Bars to which I voluntarily wrote this review.
Ketogenic Diets are diets that I've written about in the past and follow here and there as I am horrible with finding an excuse to fall off what I know should be a lifelong way of eating. It seems there is always a holiday, a birthday, or an illness that hits so I put off what I know is something I should do. One of the problems I have with staying on the diet is my immense sweet tooth coupled with finding a product that will satisfy that need with few carbs. I have found a couple of bars that I really like from Keto Watt. There are two flavors and my husband and I were able to sample both the Original Keto Watt and the Peanut Butter Keto Watt bars.
From doing the Keto Diet in the past, I know I have more energy and I feel better. Gone are the spikes of sugar rushes with hard crashes. My oldest daughter even attests to this but alas, we have low will power. I am back on the wagon attempting to change my life and feel better. There are misconceptions, in my opinion, that the Keto Diet is bad and I do not follow that train of thought. Mostly due to the fact that this is not the Atkin's Diet nor some other derivative of that way of eating. The Keto Diet incorporates many vegetables into the diet and if one is in maintenance mode, a fruit on occasion is permissible once it's learned how many carbs are allowed for one's body before regaining weight. With that said, I'm always on the hunt for a keto friendly food item and now I have found two that I do like. I confess that the Original Keto Watt is not my first choice and I preferred the Peanut Butter Keto Watt. My husband likes both and agreed with the taste being better with the Peanut Butter Keto Watt bar.
The Peanut Butter Bar Information:
- It is keto-friendly made with healthy fats from peanuts, coconut oil and cacao butter. These healthy fats are what helps to maintain the healthy level of ketosis.
- It has 14 grams of fat, 10 grams of protein and 4 grams net carbs.
- It is not only keto-friendly but is also Paleo and Vegan friendly as well as GMO free and Gluten Free.
The Original Bar Information:
- It is keto-friendly made with healthy fats from almonds, coconut oil and cacao butter. These healthy fats are what helps to maintain the healthy level of ketosis.
- It has 17 grams of fat, 8 grams of protein and 4 grams net carbs.
- It is not only keto-friendly but is also Paleo friendly as well as GMO free and Gluten Free.
The Review:
My husband and I prefer this bar over the Original due to taste. Both bars provided an energy spike that didn't involve a crashing down period. It was a nice boost to keep going especially for my husband who is a nurse on the go. They are very good in taste and don't have that fake sugar taste like some other keto-friendly bars have. The texture of the Original Bar is a little oily which didn't prevent me from eating them but that is why I preferred the Peanut Butter Bar. My husband is now hooked and wants them daily for his work and non-work days. He was really impressed with the energy boost he had without any downfalls. They are also comparable in costs to other keto-friendly products. They have samples available to order in case you want to try them out first yourself. Overall, we would recommend them.
The Keto Watt website provides a wealth of information as well if starting or are already on the Keto Diet.
