If you are going to be serious about your bike riding, then you are going to need the energy to keep you at your peak performance while you’re sitting in the saddle. There are many foods and vitamins available that you can take in order to boost your energy levels. Protein bars, such as the nutritious range of Clif Bars are a great way to sustain your all-important energy levels over long periods of riding – whether you are competing at elite level or just going for a long, pleasant ride with friends.

Renowned health food company Clif Bars make a great range of energy boosting bars, sports drinks and healthy snacks for cyclists who like to stay out in front all day long. These bars are made from healthy natural ingredients and are designed to give you a sustained energy boost and provide you with a great tasting and handy source of nutrition that you can take with you whenever you’re on the go.

Firstly, let’s take a look at Clif Bars’ range of healthy protein bars made especially for women. In fact, Luna Bars were the first protein bars made especially for active sportswomen. Luna Bars contain vitamins and minerals needed by the active female body such as folic acids, calcium and soy protein. These vitamins and minerals are often missing in many of today’s meals, so the Clif Luna Bar is just great to replenish those all-important vitamins and minerals. They are also made from all-natural ingredients, which are at least 70 per cent organic…and most importantly, they also taste delicious and come in a range of flavors including Luna Sunrise, Luna Cookie and Luna Sport.

Of course, men can also enjoy Luna Bars, but they are specifically designed to give active women the essential vitamins and minerals that they need. The Luna protein bar is also a low-glycemic food, which means that energy is released slowly over a longer period of time – just perfect for longer rides.

Another popular Clif Bar is the Natural Energy Bar. This is the original protein bar that started off the Clif Bar range. This is the energy bar for any cyclist, whether you are on a grueling trail ride or in a marathon road race, or just going for a pleasant weekend ride in the countryside, the Natural Energy Bar will help sustain you throughout your ride.

These protein bars are made from all-natural and organic ingredients with a special blend of whole grains, protein and fiber for a sustained release of energy throughout the day. Like other Clif Bars, while they are a wholesome and organic source of food and vitamins, they also taste really great and are available in a range of nutritious and delicious flavors.

Of course, Clif Bars also have a range of other protein bars, sports drinks and healthy snack alternatives. Check out their healthy range at your local health food store or sports store. They will certainly help you get through the toughest of rides…and help satisfy your appetite at the same time.
