I’m not sure about you, but I wish I had time to make my own juices, almond milk, and granola bars every week. The reality is, I don’t. Some days, I’m eating while driving. (Which I hope is not a ticketable offense). The words “quick and convenient” don’t usually coincide with the word “healthy”. The fact that I’ve enjoyed these bars for several years is the truest testament of all. They’re healthy, convenient, and tasty.
Meet Health Warrior Chia Bars! These bars have few ingredients and contain only 3 grams of sugar. These bars are real food, and that is rare to find amongst the sea of overly-processed snack bars on the market. They also have 3 grams of protein, which isn’t too shabby considering there are only 100 calories in each bar.
Why chia seeds? The ancient Tarahumara, descendents of the Aztecs, were fueled by chia seeds. Anything that has been considered healthy for that long is legitimate in my book. Chia seeds are high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Many studies have demonstrated that chia seeds can have a positive impact on hair/skin health, digestive health, and even cardiovascular health. More importantly, they actually taste good. During the school year, my afternoon snack often consists of a Health Warrior Chia Bar and a piece of fruit. FYI, the coconut is my absolute favorite and the dark chocolate is a close second. Ben prefers the açai berry, and it’s always comical to ask him to pronounce “açai”.
If you watch me on Instastories or Pinterest, you know that I’m a huge fan of snack bars. You also know that I’m a huge fan of understanding where my food comes from. Health Warrior was founded in 2010 by three former college athletes who quickly found themselves off the field and adjusting to a normal adulting routine. One thing remained constant, they still needed to fuel their bodies with nutrient-dense foods. They built their brand off the belief that when it comes to food, it should be quality over quantity. This is the exact reason why I don’t count calories. Instead, I aim to fuel my body with the healthiest foods possible.
Health Warrior is offering 20% with the code twentyfiveplus5 (all lowercase letters!). I would love to know your favorite flavor!
Ooh I love that packaging! (Graphic Designer, so it’s always the first thing I notice, haha)
They sound pretty interesting but I never seem to like any bars like that when I try them.

I am always looking for easy on the go snacks! This looks awesome.
I love me some snack bars, and I love me some chia seeds! I’ll have to try these out.
Taking the time to eat well can feel like such an effort sometimes. But I love it when you can feel good about what you are grabbing and going with.

Where can you find these? I normally don’t eat bars but I do want to try some. I need to start eating better and I’m always eating on-the-go as well.
Those look and sound delish!
