The "Nectar Bars" or "Lara Bars" low glycemic treats? I noticed that the bars of the cliff nectar that they are low glycemic index, but the truth is that their main ingredient, dates, ranks very high on the glycemic index. Can someone help me here?
Thank you
Purple! Yes, I think they are like the dates used are organic. All ingredients are 100% Nectar Bar certified organic, meaning they are grown without pesticides or artificial toxic chemicals, and are not genetically modified. All ingredients are unprocessed and retain all their natural flavors.
