You know how people always say that when things taste good, they’re bad for you? And when things taste bad, they’re good for you?

Well, in the case of Kardea Nutrition, food not only tastes good, but it’s also very good for you.

Kardea’s snack bars deliver 50% more heart healthy soluble fiber than found in oatmeal, and each provides 1 gram of cholesterol lowering plant sterols.

Robert Leighton created Kardea in order to enable and empower people to manage their cholesterol naturally and nutritiously. Leighton founded Kardea as part of a personal mission to lower his own cholesterol. When he was 47, Leighton found himself moving from “border line” high cholesterol to outright high cholesterol, due to both diet and genetics.

Rather than rely on medication, Leighton took his love of culinary creations and belief in the science of natural cholesterol management and founded Kardea.

Kareda’s snack bars are available in four flavors: Banana Walnut, Chai Spice, Cranberry Almond and Lemon Ginger.

Each contains 1 gram of plant sterols, 7 grams of fiber with 5 grams soluble fiber, 3 grams of viscous soluble fiber (50% more viscous soluble fiber than oatmeal), and 7 grams of protein with 3.5 grams of soy protein.

Each bar is Kosher certified, has only 150 calories, contains no trans fat, and features a lower glycemic formulation. In addition, all are vegetarian-friendly and two, Chai Spice and Banana Walnut, are vegan.

I’ve tried ‘em all, and they are all great.

The Chai Spice is subtle and not to spicy, the Banana Walnut is the perfect blend of nutty banana flavors, the Cranberry Almond is a flavorful breakfast pick me up, and the Lemon Ginger will satisfy any sweet craving.

If your local Co-Op or other grocer doesn’t carry the bars yet, you can purchase them online here.
