Nitrate energy bar with rhubarb and ginger

This oat based energy bar delivers both slower release sustained carbs and fast-acting energy from apple & grape juice concentrate plus coconut MCTs for ready to use endurance energy. Naturally rich in dietary nitrates to support oxygen flow to muscles, beetroot is proven to boost performance.

Even if you're not a beetroot fan (like me) the flavours are fantastic.

Great for both pre & post training/racing with all the added athletic benefits of beetroot to help boost oxygen intake.

Managed Snowdonia half marathon using these with absolutely no nausea. Magic!

Best-tasting flapjacks out there, really really impressed. My go-to from now on!

Knowledge Base

Frequently Asked Questions

Is beetroot good for performance?

Each bar is packed with the equivalent of a medium sized beet and therefore the associated dietary nitrates. Dietary nitrates in beetroot can improve blood flow in the body, boosting performance in endurance and team sports. The health and performance benefits of nitrates are widely researched, you can read in more detail about how nitrates can boost your performance on the VOOM blog. Dietary nitrates cause a Nitric Oxide boost in the blood which in turn can help lower blood pressure and improve arterial blood flow through vasodilation of capillaries. This enhanced blood flow has been found to aid sporting performance in a range of research trials and studies.

How much nitrate do I need to aid performance?

Dose response studies have shown a 140ml serving of beetroot juice (8.4mmol equating to around 520mg nitrate ) increased nitrate plasma concentration and significantly improved exercise performance. The oxygen cost of steady-state exercise was reduced by 1.7% and time to task failure was improved by an average of 14% compared with a placebo. Nitrates does of 400mg have also been demonstrated to aid performance.

Do beetroot energy bars taste like beetroot shots?

The POWR Plant beetroot energy bars contain the equivalent of one whole beet, so there is a beetrooty taste, but paired with zingy rhubarb and ginger, the taste is quite delicious compared to concentrated beetroot shots.

Are energy bars with ginger good for you?

Ginger is scientifically proven to help prevent bloating, nausea and stomach discomfort during exercise, so an energy bar with ginger is likely to reduce risk of stomach upset during activity.

Is a ginger energy bar good for my stomach?

Many people find ginger energy bars easy on the stomach with anecdotal evidence suggesting ginger can settle stomach upset or feelings of nausea, whilst offering an invigorating taste in the mouth.

Directions

For the performance-driven we recommend 1 – 2 bars daily for 3 days before you compete; this is because dietary nitrates have been shown to boost blood nitrite levels and aid performance. Another bar around 2-3 hours before competition will keep blood nitrite at peak levels. Read more about the importance of nitrates for athletes here.
