Go Lower Bars Now Available in US!
Way back in March of 2005 I wrote a review of a great product that came from England, Go Lower Bars.
Here is an excerpt, but read the whole thing:
Folks, for long-time readers, you know that I usually can't abide low carb "bars." Most of them are just filled with maltitol, and I don't know how anyone can stand the consistency let alone the after effects; gas, bloating, etc. I have taken to eating nuts. I let my kids eat the Carbwell Cereal bars because they only have 3g of maltitol, but I wish they had none.
The employees at the Go Lower company from England read my site and said that they had low carb bars that I would like. Even though they currently don't distribute in the US, they kindly sent me some to try. All I can say is, "nirvana!" These things are the absolute best!
To my readers in England, run to try these out! And for those readers in the States, join me in begging them to distribute them over here! The Brits definitely have it over the Americans in the low carb bar department! For adults who are interested in health AND good taste, I haven't seen another product that even comes close.
Well, Andrew from Carbsmart just emailed me to tell me that he now carries these Go Lower bars in the US and they are available on his site (click here to order). These get my highest endorsement!
THANKS so much for sharing about these GoLower bars FINALLY coming to the United States. I remember when you first blogged about these bars, which made me curious about them, too. The first time I tried them, I was HOOKED!
Keep up the great work telling us about EXCELLENT low-carb products!

I can't wait to try some because all the others were not that good.

I try to live low carb, but that breads and pasta are my 'vices'. I want to tell you about something I have found, you may want to pass this along to your readers if they are carb lovers like me and occasionally endulge in more carbs than Atkins/Kimkins would recommend. There is a product that has gotten FDA structural function “OK”, it’s purpose is to nuetralize starchy foods/comfort foods like pasta, bread and potatoes, so that your body digests them as FIBER rather than SUGAR! and that is a good thing! It helps with 30-40% of those carbs. SO, you can’t have a loaf of bread, but you can have a dinner roll, or a sandwich or a healthy serving of pasta, and get a little help from Phase II. You can learn more about it at Phase2Info.com

Breads are the devil to me too! But these bars are awful and the feeling i have after eating them are nauseating. Maybe this will work? Thanks Anthony - http://gastric-bypass-network.com

Hey the office for the go lower bars is in edinburgh scotland where I live. The bars are nice but I still think they are a bit high in carb. The part where you said we have it good with the low carbing over here you are waaaaaaay wrong we have nothing and no supermarkets do any low carb stuff. Its very very difficult to find anything over here and usually I have to buy it from america.
