Healthy snacks, including a wide range of bars, are flying off the shelves. As a consequence of functional ingredients, snack bars are being revamped as version 2.0. These so-called functional foods are popular across all generations, since they promise great taste in addition to being healthy.
Today’s range of snack bars includes products designed specifically to support certain health aspects; for example: nut bars to increase concentration, special bars for breastfeeding mothers that contain key vitamins and trace minerals such as iron, iodine, zinc and folic acid, as well as protein bars to build muscle mass for athletes. Functional bars, therefore, can meet almost every nutritional requirement.
