The IQ Bar is a nutritional snack that those focused on both their physical and mental abilities are able to enjoy.
The nutrition bars claim to enhance cognitive capabilities in those who eat them. They provide three primary benefits – they offer "sustained mental energy," they contain "critical brain nutrients," and are made with whole food ingredients. The brain-boosting ingredients in the IQ Bars include omega-3's, flavonoids, and vitamin E. There are currently three different snack bars in the collection, including an Almond Cocoa, a Blueberry Walnut, and a Matcha Hazelnut.
IQ Bars are able to balance both flavor and nutrition, offering something for those who are watching their weight, consumers seeking a well-balanced diet, and/or people who are looking to boost their energy levels.
