Quick answer
Limit When Possible
South Beach Diet snack bars, chocolate caramel nut is rated limit when possible overall, with a Longevity Score of 52 out of 100 and a Food Integrity Score of 55 out of 100. Protein and fiber are reasonable, but multiple refined sweeteners, palm oil, and glycerine make this a highly processed snack bar. Strengths include good protein (6g) and fiber (6g) per bar, peanuts as a whole-food ingredient, and moderate calories at 100 per bar, while main considerations include multiple added sugars: sugar, agave, tapioca syrup, dextrose, palm kernel and palm oil, saturated-fat heavy, and ultra-processed with soy isolate, glycerine, and flavors.
