New Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar

Amazing Grass, the premiere producer of organic Green SuperFoods, is pleased to announce the launch of their new Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar. By combining the antioxidant rich fruits and vegetables of their alkalizing Green SuperFood Powder with organic peanuts and whey protein, the new chocolate covered bar satisfies hunger and delivers nutrients to the body in a healthy and delicious way.

With today's busier lifestyles and poor dietary habits, the Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar provides consumers with a more potent, convenient and affordable way to get their 5+ daily servings of fruits and vegetables. This new enzyme rich, high protein bar contains every nutrient the body needs (except for vitamin D which is processed naturally from sunlight). Therefore, it is perfect for people on the go, including athletes, students, backpackers, travelers and commuters.

"Grass has never tasted so good," says co-founder Todd Habermehl. "The response so far from consumers has been phenomenal - they love the taste and texture of the bar and the convenience it offers them in meeting their daily nutritional needs," adds Habermehl. "The wheat and barley grass that we grow is harvested at the proper time before gluten forms. So it may be a surprise to some people that all of our products including the new Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar are gluten-free," adds Habermehl.

The nutritional profile of the Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar is impressive. It features 12 grams of protein and has 270 calories, 14 grams of healthy omega fats, 19 grams of sugar and 28 grams of carbohydrates. The ingredients include: Organic Peanut Butter, Organic Agave Nectar, Organic Dates, Whey Protein Concentrate, Organic Peanuts, Organic Rice Crisps, Amazing Grass Green SuperFood (Organic Wheat Grass, Organic Barley Grass, Organic Alfalfa, Organic Spirulina, Organic Spinach, Organic Chlorella, Organic Broccoli, Organic Acai, Organic Maca, Organic Carrot, Organic Beet, Raspberry, Organic Rose Hips, Pineapple, Green Tea, Organic Flax Lignans, L.

The Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar also features an innovative Fair Trade Organic Dark Chocolate Coating made from Cane Sugar, Unsweetened Chocolate, Cocoa Butter, Non-GMO Soy Lecithin and Natural Vanilla Flavor.

The suggested retail price of the Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar is $2.99. It is available nationwide at retailers such as Whole Foods Markets and can also be purchased online at www.AmazingGrass.com.

Amazing Grass Green SuperFood Powder has a high concentration of naturally-occurring enzymes, carotenoids, phytonutrients and antioxidants that work synergistically to fight free radicals, remove toxins and repair damaged cells. Ultimately, Amazing Grass contains every amino acid, vitamin, and mineral necessary to sustain human life. Since the human body is designed to get nutrition from whole foods, the body is able to efficiently and rapidly absorb the nutrients in Green SuperFood and quickly convert them to fuel.

For the majority of people, stress and consumption of unhealthy processed foods can create an acidic imbalance in the blood that, among other problems, can cause the body to store water and build up fat in the arteries (cholesterol) as protection from acidic blood. The rich chlorophyll content and high alkalinity of Amazing Grass Green SuperFood helps to combat acidity and restore blood to the optimal pH level. It also promotes improved circulation, digestion and regular elimination.

The Amazing Grass Green SuperFood blend is a unique and potent combination of nature’s most nourishing, cleansing and rebuilding green superfoods including more than 70% certified organic ingredients and an enhanced digestive enzyme and active probiotic blend to improve nutrient absorption. Amazing Grass Green SuperFood combines nutrient dense green food concentrates with other uniquely powerful ingredients like açaí and maca. SambazonÒ Acai, is a purple berry loaded with antioxidants, healthy omega fats, fiber and protein that grows in the Amazon Rainforest; and maca is a nutritious root grown at high altitudes in Peru that is known to be an adaptogen that boosts the immune system and provides sustained energy, vitality and mental clarity.

Amazing Grass’ mission is to educate the world about the benefits of green superfoods and the improved quality of life from healthy eating habits. Amazing Grass also offers Green SuperFood Energy Bars, Amazing Meal, Kidz SuperFood Powders, Organic Wheat Grass Powder and Organic What Grass Tablets.

Amazing Grass is a friends and family owned company with roots that date back over 60 years of growing and dehydrating green foods. The company produces certified organic wheat grass, barley grass, oat grass, rye grass and alfalfa at a family farm in Kansas, and markets the most nutritious, convenient and affordable green superfoods to help families thrive. Amazing Grass stands out because the grasses are field-grown throughout the winter allowing the roots to soak up nutrients from mineral-rich soil for over 6 months. “The young leaves are harvested just one time each year at their nutritional peak,” says co-founder Brandon Bert. "The greens are carefully flash dehydrated at low temperatures, frozen as whole leaf powders and then packed in nitrogen to maintain freshness. The extra steps ensure customers get the most nutrient-dense raw green food powders in the world," adds Bert.
