If you like to have choice of what you put into your body we have the company for you. I have recently had the pleasure of trying out various products from You Bar. This company allows you create your own protein bars, trail mix, cookies, and cereal. This mother/son team of Anthony Flynn and Ava Bise will put together your creation in their kitchen in Los Angeles and mail it to you. It is really simple to choose your ingredients from an extensive list including Goji berries, Brazil nuts, Chia seeds, licorice, and much more. There are also several organic ingredients to choose from. 
What I got in the mail were several protein bars, some trail mix and protein powder. The ability to custom order these items is that you can decide exactly what you want to put into your body. This is important for people with dietary considerations, such as vegans and those with food allergies. It is also very helpful to athletes who may be training and want to consume only certain specific things to help them.
I found the bars and the trail mix to taste fantastic. They were very fresh and gave me great energy throughout the day. I have not yet tried the protein powder. I plan on trying it this weekend.
Kudos (no pun intended) to Anthony and Ava for having a great idea and executing it with such style and efficiency. Go to youbars.com and order yours today.

I would love to add some natural unsweetened cocoa to my customized bar!
I don’t have any favourites, I just buy what has the most nutritional and what has the lowest price, but I do love those milk shake powders, they have up to 50% of your daily intake of vitamins in just one glass of milk!
