What's in an Oxyshred Protein Bar

• Protein blend: milk protein concentrate, whey protein concentrate, soy protein isolate, soy protein crisps and hydrolysed collagen (5%). EHP Labs describes the blend as slow-release protein.
• Fibre: polydextrose, inulin, soluble corn fibre and citrus fibre. EHP Labs lists the inulin and soluble corn fibre as prebiotic fibre.
• Sweeteners: erythritol, stevia and monk fruit in the chocolate, plus sorbitol and glycerol to keep the centre soft.
• Coating: no added sugar milk or white chocolate, depending on the flavour.
• Natural colours, flavours and sweeteners: EHP Labs uses natural colours and flavours, and sweetens the bars with stevia, monk fruit and erythritol instead of sugar. Vitamin E is added as an antioxidant.

7 flavours

When to eat an Oxyshred Protein Bar

• Between meals: a filling snack that helps you skip the vending machine.
• After training: 18 g of protein to support muscle recovery when you can't make a shake.
• On the go: keep a bar in your gym bag, car or desk drawer.

How to store Oxyshred Protein Bars

Keep bars somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sun. EHP Labs suggests 16°C to 20°C, so a pantry or desk drawer is fine, but a hot car in summer will melt the chocolate. Keep each bar in the wrapper until you're ready to eat so the centre stays soft. Most people eat one bar a day, so a box of 12 lasts about two weeks.

What to look for in a protein bar

• Protein per bar: 15 g or more. The Oxyshred bar has 18 g.
• Sugar: under 5 g. The Oxyshred bar has 2 g.
• Calories: think of a bar as a snack, not a meal. The Oxyshred bar has 160 to 170.
• Fibre: helps you stay full. The Oxyshred bar has 7 g.
• Ingredients that suit you: check the allergens and the sweeteners. Sugar alcohols like sorbitol and erythritol can upset some stomachs.
• Price per bar: compare the price per bar and the grams of protein in each bar. Buying a box of 12 brings the price per bar down.

Allergens and who should take care

All Oxyshred Protein Bars contain milk and soy. Choc Peanut Caramel also contains peanuts. The labels say every flavour may contain peanut, sesame and tree nuts, so the Oxyshred bar is not suitable for people with nut allergies. The bars are not vegan.

The bars use sorbitol, glycerol and erythritol. Eating several bars in a day can cause bloating, gas or a loose stomach in some people. Start with one bar a day and drink plenty of water.

Single bar or box of 12

• One bar: $4.95.
• Box of 12: $55.00, about $4.58 a bar.

What to pair with the Oxyshred Protein Bar

• A protein shake: Booty N Buff Lean Protein at home, the bar when you're out.
• A ready-to-drink shake: Oxyshred Protein Lean Shake, with 30 g of protein in a bottle.
• A fat burner: EHP Labs Oxyshred or Onest Hyperburn if you're dieting. The Oxyshred bar has no added caffeine, so the bar won't add to your stimulant intake.
