• We analyzed 230 popular granola bars by their nutrition labels to figure out which are the most healthy.
• Ideally, bars should not contain added sugar or more than 2.6 grams of saturated fat and should contain around 5 grams each of fiber, protein, and fat.
• We found the RXBar to be the healthiest brand overall, with two KIND Bar flavors coming in a close second.
• Some of the most unhealthy bars were flavors of LÄRABAR, Nature Valley, and KIND.
