When I first created the Empower Bar years ago, I simply wanted something to eat first thing in the morning (especially while traveling) to ensure blood sugar balance right off of the bat.

When creating the recipe for the Empower Bar, each ingredient was selected with intention. There is a reason why sunflower seeds made the cut! They are an excellent source of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E, vitamin B1, copper, manganese, selenium, and folate.

Being a mom to a toddler and a new baby is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. The morning is especially hectic...there is no time to even think about making myself breakfast.

Though my focus is to eat primarily REAL food in its original form, having access to a “grain-free” bar makes Paleo living easier as a long term lifestyle, especially when you are constantly on-the-go.

Pumpkin seeds (also called Pepitas) are a good source of magnesium, zinc, iron, potassium, antioxidants, and healthy fats. Studies have shown that pumpkin seeds promote heart health and help to fight inflammation.
