The phd bars do not taste good but I got them really really cheap so I didn't mind so much - they do the job and have no artificial sweetners and all that gubbins so they are healthier than a lot of other bars. I prefer the metrx ones but I'm a tight bastard and just buy whatever is cheapest!!

Reviewer: jes
Just going to add a review to disagree with the first one - the reason these bars aren't like a snack bar is that they actually have healthy ingredients unlike most of the sugar alcohol bars on the market!!
Reviewer: WhatTheSupp
I got a box of these smart bars on a special offer but I have to say they are probably the WORST protein bars I have had in a LONG time - they taste terrible, and they have 'bits' in them which are like rocks! It takes about 10mins to finish one of these, and I sold the rest of the bars to a friend after enduring a few of them - AVOID!

What Is PhD Smart Bar?
PhD Nutrition’s Smart Bar fills the void left behind by modern-day nutrition bars crammed full of sugar, hidden carbohydrates, gelatine, artificial preservatives and other ingredients that essentially are no good for those seeking optimum health and vitality.
Smart Bar - NO Artificial Sweetners
The PhD Smart Bar contains No artificial sweeteners! The major source of carbohydrates within the bar comes in the form of 100% natural fruit juice, which as many of you will know contains fibre and naturally-occurring fructose, a carbohydrate with a low glycemic rating of 23.
PhD Smart Bar - Full of Goodness
Whilst many protein bars contain potentially-unhealthy ingredients such as corn syrup, glucose, hydrogenated fats and other such additives, the Smart Bar is purity in comparison. PhD Nutrition were determined to create a nutrition bar that differed from the rest of the market. Our objectives were clear:
- PhD didn’t want the smart bar crammed full with artificial sweeteners
- PhD wanted a natural and healthy carbohydrate source that rated low on the glycemic index
- PhD wanted the smart bar to contain healthy nutrients not usually seen in a sports bar
- PhD wanted a nutrition bar with Whey Protein and Micellar Casein for slow, steady release of amino acids throughout the day
- PhD insisted that no nutrition bar in our range would contain hydrogenated fats or gelatine
PhD Smart Bar - Balance and necessity
Athletes need balance in our daily diet. Excessively low in any nutrient and you are essentially missing out on all the benefits that each nutrient can supply to the diet.
What Does PhD Smart Bar Do?
PhD Smart Bar, provides the ultimate, healthy bite-size, dual-action protein bar, which serves as either:
- A pre-workout snack with just the right amount of protein and carbohydrates to ensure a productive workout
- A snack between meals to ensure protein levels are maintained and constant throughout the day
- A late night snack complete with dual-acting protein sources and naturally-occurring fibre to ensure a slow and steady release of amino acids
- An ideal mini-meal whilst on the road or throughout your regular day
Just a few benefits of the ingredients within in PhD Smart Bar!
- Whey Protein may help boost energy levels and assist with muscle growth
- Whey Protein is a natural source of Leucine, a Branched Chain Amino Acid that plays a vital part in muscle protein synthesis
- Added dietary protein may help provide satiety, potentially aiding weight-loss and helping to avoid snacking.
- PhD Smart Bar is rich in Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA’s) from 3 protein sources (Whey Protein, Micellar Casein and Soy protein)
- Whey Protein is also rich in cysteine, a precursor to the potent antioxidant Glutathione
- Whey Protein Concentrate contains naturally-occurring components that play a large role in maintaining gut and intestinal health. Three pre-biotic components of Whey Protein (Glycomacropeptide-GMP, Lactoferrin-LF and Calcium) all have potential to act as friendly bacteria within the colon and ensure optimum health
- Whey Protein can help bolster the immune system and ensure optimum well-being
- Smart Bar contains Micellar Casein which is a very slow-release protein, shown to be efficient at releasing amino acids into the bloodstream over a long period of time
- Soy Protein compares extremely favourably to Whey Protein on many fronts. One study showed that supplementing with a nutritional bar containing Soy Protein favourably increased antioxidant status post-exercise, in fact more so that a bar containing Whey Protein only
- Recent experimental and epidemiological studies have provided convincing evidence for a variety of health benefits derived from the consumption of Soy Protein and soy food products
