Element Bars Review and Giveaway

Are you a snacker? I am. It is really important for us to eat every 3 hours or so to keep our metabolism high. So snacks can be great! But, many foods that are said to be "snack foods" are full of icky preservatives, chemicals, fat and junk. So, get ready to transform your snacking habits, because you are going to love the healthy snack bars I have for you today.

At Element Bars, they believe many people, like us, care about what goes into their bodies. Not only should food nourish our body and soul, it should be made in such a way that sustains our planet. They also understand that we all have different tastes and nutritional needs. So it is important to cater our individual diets to our unique taste and nutritional requirements. Besides being nourishing, they think nutrition bars should be enjoyable and fun! However, with today's busy, modern lifestyle, not everyone has the time to make his or her own nutrition bars.

That is why they invite you to pick and choose the elements (or ingredients) that you want (or don't want) in your nutrition bar. We want to make nutrition personal again by letting you customize your bars to your liking.

Their promise to you:


•Premium Ingredients - The highest quality, all-natural, minimally processed ingredients

•Deliciousness - Our Taste Guarantee

•Freshness - bars fresh out of the oven to your doorstep

•Personal Care - we will make your ElementBars experience perfect

I tried out some of their most popular bars - Detox Therapy, Fuel Up and Go, Choco-lata-fun, and The Cherry Dates Nuts. I really like that there were no unpronounceable names of ingredients in the labels of these nutrition bars.  I knew every single thing that was in them! They always only use all-natural ingredients that are either unprocessed or have been minimally processed to best preserve each ingredient's nutritional benefits. Thank you!

My favorite part about Element Bars is that you can build your own bar!! You first pick what you want as the core. I like the oaty core the best. Then, you can choose if you want it organic. Of course, I chose yes! After the core, you can add more ingredients like fruit, nuts, sweets or boosts. As you keep changing your bar, you can watch the nutrition facts for your bar change to fit what you added. How cool is that?

If you don't want to build your own bar, but still want a bar that fits your needs, you can always take the quiz to help you find the bar that matches up best with you. After I took the quiz, it said that the bar for me was the Fuel Up and Go, which is one of my favorites anyways!

Another cool feature? You can save your bar combinations, so the next time you want to re-order, you can do it really easily!

The only thing that disappoints me about Element Bars is that not all of the ingredients are completely organic. I especially wish the seeds and nuts were, since they are such powerfoods! Otherwise, I am a fan of Element Bars, and I think they are a healthy replacement for many of those junk food snacks that you may be tempted to reach for when you are hungry.

You can order a box of their popular bars for $1.99/bar, which is $23.88 a box. Or, you can design your own bar for $2.99/bar, which is $35.88 a box.

Guess what? Yes, you guessed it! One of my lucky readers is going to win a box of 12 custom bars! How awesome is that?
