Default Do NITRO-TECH bars contain "trans-fat"

I see your point. I eat lots of apples but they have no protein.

Regarding being "all natural", so are nightshade mushrooms and snake
venom and lots of other things that can hurt you.

The appeal to "all natural" is the biggest bunch of bunk in the

modern
era.

While I agree with you that the term "all natural" is often a
marketing ploy, there are so many examples that show that processed
food is bad your you. Example,

1. Refined flour gets digested too quickly.
2. Sugar is bad for your teeth.
3. Trans Fats may cause cardiovascular diseases.

Some of these examples are only known recently. So, a prudent
strategy would be to be very cautious about processed food. It is all
about risk management. I am placing my bets on foods that have not
undergone major industrial processes.

OTOH, sometimes foods are improved to varying degrees by some level
of processing (and indeed some "foods" are inedible or even toxic in
their natural state). If you don't believe me, try eating an olive
straight from the tree.

and more
important don't work to support your junk food bar company. That

is what
this bar is, junk food in a different wrapper. Eat an Apple, it's

cheaper
and all natural guaranteed.

I love NITRO-TECH bars because of their taste and protein

content.

I am trying to figure out whether they contain any significant

amounts
of "trans-fat".

Any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks,
