Nutrition Facts box listing the ingredients in Brain Boost Protein Bar.

Almond Butter

Almond butter is a rich, creamy spread made from ground almonds, offering a nourishing source of healthy fats, plant-based protein, and fiber.* It provides essential nutrients like vitamin E, magnesium, and calcium, which support heart health, brain function, and strong bones.* The healthy monounsaturated fats in almond butter help maintain balanced energy levels and keep you feeling full longer.* Whether used as a snack or meal ingredient, almond butter is a delicious and wholesome way to support overall wellness and sustained energy.*

Chicory Root Inulin

Chicory root inulin is a natural prebiotic fiber that nourishes beneficial gut bacteria, helping to support a healthy digestive system and improve overall gut function.* By feeding the microbiome, inulin promotes the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which support colon health, immune function, and communication between the gut and brain.* This gut-brain connection plays a key role in mood, energy, and mental clarity.* Chicory root inulin also supports regularity and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels, making it a gentle yet powerful addition to daily digestive and overall wellness.*

Brown Rice Protien

Brown rice protein is a gentle, plant-based source of complete protein that’s easy to digest and ideal for those with sensitivities to dairy, soy, or gluten.* It provides essential amino acids that support muscle repair, energy production, and overall strength.* Naturally low in allergens, brown rice protein fuels your body without causing bloating or discomfort, making it great for active lifestyles or daily wellness support.* Whether post-workout or as part of a meal, it helps keep you energized and satisfied throughout the day.*

Pea Protein

Proprietary plant-based protein complex
Pea protein isolate is a clean, plant-based source of high-quality protein that supports energy, muscle repair, and overall strength.* Rich in essential amino acids—especially branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs)—it helps rebuild muscle tissue after exercise and supports daily physical activity.* It’s also easy to digest and free from common allergens like dairy and soy.* Whether you’re active, recovering, or simply looking to boost your protein intake, pea protein isolate provides a nutritious, sustainable way to support muscle health and lasting energy.*

Soluble Tapioca Fiber

Soluble tapioca fiber is a gentle, gut-friendly fiber derived from the cassava root.* It supports digestive health by feeding beneficial gut bacteria and promoting the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which help nourish the colon and support immune function.* Unlike some fibers that can cause gas or bloating, tapioca fiber is easy to digest and helps you feel fuller for longer—making it great for appetite control and balanced energy.* It’s a clean, low-glycemic option that supports gut health, regularity, and overall well-being without digestive discomfort.*

Dark Chocolate Chips

Dark chocolate chips offer a rich cocoa flavor along with natural sweetness from allulose and monk fruit—both low-glycemic, zero-calorie sweeteners.* These chips provide a satisfying treat without the blood sugar spikes of traditional sugar.* Dark chocolate is also a natural source of antioxidants, particularly flavonoids, which support heart health, brain function, and mood.* These chocolate chips can satisfy cravings while delivering beneficial plant compounds and a touch of indulgence that fits into a balanced, health-conscious lifestyle.*

Pumpkin Protein

Organic pumpkin seed protein is a plant-based powerhouse that delivers not only high-quality protein but also a rich supply of essential minerals like magnesium, zinc, and iron.* These nutrients support muscle function, immune health, and energy production.* Pumpkin seed protein is also a natural source of healthy fats and antioxidants, promoting heart health and reducing inflammation.* Easily digestible and allergen-friendly, it’s a great way to boost protein intake while nourishing your body with vital nutrients that support strength, recovery, and overall wellness.*

Vegetable Glycerin

Vegetable glycerin is a plant-derived, naturally sweet-tasting liquid that helps keep foods soft, moist, and chewy—without the need for added sugars.* It supports texture and shelf stability while contributing minimal calories and having little to no impact on blood sugar.* In addition to its use as a natural humectant (moisture-retainer), glycerin is easy to digest and well tolerated.* It provides a clean solution for creating enjoyable, better-for-you snacks that maintain their freshness and softness, all while supporting a low-sugar lifestyle.*

Monk Fruit Concentrate

Organic flavors and monk fruit concentrate provide a clean, natural way to enhance taste without relying on artificial ingredients or added sugars.* Monk fruit, a small melon native to Asia, is a zero-calorie sweetener that doesn’t spike blood sugar, making it ideal for low-glycemic and health-conscious diets.* Combined with organic plant-based flavors, it delivers delicious sweetness and flavor while keeping your food free from synthetic additives.* This blend helps create satisfying, better-for-you products that support balanced energy, clean eating, and overall wellness.*
Ingredients - 2 chocolate chunks against a white background.

Organic Cocoa Butter

Cocoa butter and sea salt combine to create a rich, satisfying texture with a perfectly balanced flavor. Cocoa butter, derived from cacao beans, provides healthy fats that give foods a smooth, creamy mouthfeel while supporting sustained energy and satiety.* Sea salt adds essential minerals and enhances the overall flavor, helping to satisfy cravings without overwhelming sweetness.* Together, they deliver a naturally indulgent taste experience that supports clean eating and keeps your snack both nourishing and delicious.*

MCT Oil Powder

MCT oil powder, combined with prebiotic acacia gum, offers a powerful boost for both brain and gut health.* MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) are fast-absorbing fats that the body quickly converts into energy—especially for the brain—helping to support mental focus, clarity, and stamina.* Acacia gum acts as a prebiotic fiber, feeding beneficial gut bacteria and supporting smooth digestion.* Together, they provide clean, sustained energy without the crash, while also promoting a healthy gut-brain connection, making this duo ideal for daily cognitive and digestive support.*

Steviol Glycosides

Steviol glycosides are the naturally sweet compounds found in the stevia plant, offering a clean, calorie-free alternative to sugar.* They provide a pleasant sweetness without raising blood sugar levels, making them ideal for people managing blood sugar or looking to reduce added sugars.* Just a small amount delivers noticeable flavor, helping to create satisfying treats without the crash or calories of traditional sweeteners.* Derived from a plant and free from artificial additives, steviol glycosides support a healthier, low-glycemic lifestyle while still letting you enjoy a touch of sweetness.*
