The ingredients for the production of Energy Fig energy bars were chosen in order to develop a suitable product for sport and physical activity. The goal was for the energy bars to be as complete a nutritional supplement as possible, which was, in turn, easy to eat during any training or competition.
The combination of figs and almonds, and other dried fruits, provides a rich source of carbohydrates that can be assimilated at varying speeds, both fast and slow. The nuts also provide protein and “good” fats.
Each energy bar also provides a large number of vitamins and minerals including potassium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium, vitamins A, B and C, and fibre.
Every 100g provides approximate values of: 385-395 kcal, 75-78 gr. of carbohydrates, 7 gr. of fat, 5-6 gr. of protein and up to 3-7 gr. of fibre.
And, as each energy bar weighs about 45 grams, this provides approximately: 175-178 kcal, 34-36 gr. of carbohydrates, 3 gr. of fat, 2-5 gr. of protein and up to 1.6-3.6 gr. of fibre.
