Product Reviews of Belly-bar, Mellow Oat, Oat Graham & Yogurt, 1.59 Ounce Bars (Pack of 12)Product Review: Wonderful Summary: 5 Stars
I'm in my first trimester and my appetite is pretty low due to the nausea. But these are something I can kind of nosh on throughout the day and know that I'm getting my nutrients and calories. They are delightfully tasty too!
Product Review: YUMMIEST BAR-- BY FAR! Summary: 5 Stars
These bars are so amazingly good! I especially love the chocolate. They are perfect for a snack when I am out and about chasing after my two kids!
Product Review: a bit sweet, and check the nutritional information Summary: 4 Stars
I bought these when I couldn't get down my prenatal vitamin because of nausea, and I wanted another way to get the nutrients to our developing baby. Overall, I'm happy with the product and just bought my second box. These taste ok, although they're definitely on the sweet side, and fortunately they don't crumble if you carry them in your purse.
I suppose it was foolish to think these would provide the same nutrients as my 6/day, food-based prenatal vitamins, but I just saw the phrase "all the supplemental nutrients needed" and made that assumption. These do provide all the folate, B6, and iron you need, but there are lots of other helpful nutrients that are not included, or that only give you part of the RDA.
Overall, this is a helpful tool in the prenatal regimen, but it doesn't account for all your nutritional needs. Other supplements and a good diet are still important parts of the puzzle.
