I have to tell you about this Dumbass commercial I saw for Intermittent fasting bars from Slim Fast.
At first I was a little perplexed, the whole Intermittent fasting bar during Intermittent fasting just didn’t sit right with me. A bar that you can eat during your fast …
seems a little suspect, ya know, cause you can’t ingest a calorie during the fasting period.
So, as per usual I decided to investigate this silly idea of eating during your “not eating” phase of the day.
Turns out the Intermittent fasting bar from Slim Fast seems to be a good idea to break your fast, I’m not convinced of that either, I’d rather you break your fast with a healthy meal instead of a meal supplement. But, at least Slim Fast is not pushing their silly bars as supplements during the fast. That would just be ridiculous.
However! There is a product that claims it is ok to eat their bar during fasting and rightfully so it’s called the “Fasting Bar”! How great is that, let’s fool everyone by calling it the fasting bar, they’ll never know the difference!
Somehow the company that created the fasting bar made it so the calories in the bar don’t affect your blood sugar. Isn’t that amazing!
It seems to be that when eaten alone nuts, honey, chocolate chips and coconut have calories, but when these special items are put in a package and labeled “Fasting Bar” all of a sudden those calories disappear, making the bar safe to eat during fasting.
What a terrific idea, just lie to everyone! This way when people buy the bar, eat it during their fasting time of the day and never lose any weight they’ll keep coming back for more bars!
Brilliant!!
It’s kinda like every other company selling diet products out there.
Just keep lying to everyone so you can keep selling your crap products and no one loses weight. Instead of just saying the truth, just eat meat and vegetables.
Nooooo, why would they say that, how are they gonna rape everyone at the grocery store if you tell them the truth!
Stop with the supplemental crap, just eat whole nutritious foods. That’s it, you don’t need anything but whole foods, and this has nothing to do with the Whole Foods store cause they sell crap food also.
There must be people actually buying these bars, that’s just fucking insane to me.
