VitaFiber IMO Large Syrup - Sweet Prebiotic Fiber - Lower Calorie Sugar Alternative - 30 fl oz

Fantastic for making quest-like home-made protein bars! I have bought 7 bottles of this stuff in the past few months. Great for keeping a growing teenager full of healthy protein bars at a lower price than buying pre-made bars. The syrup itself is only slightly sweet, which is nice because you can add sweetener IF you want to, or can opt for a less sweet bar. The firmness of the bar depends on how hot you heat the syrup and for how long. This syrup makes incredible protein bars which I make everyday. Highly, highly recommend!! **************EDIT********************** Here's the recipe if you are interested... (makes 3 bars)(See Pic 1 to see packages of the ingredients) STEP 1: Mix the following and then microwave this liquid for 2 minutes on power level 4: ~ 3 to 4 tbls Vitafiber Syrup (THIS PRODUCT) ~ 1/2 tsp of flavors Lorann Oils Bakery Emulsion and have tried & like: Buttery Sweet Dough, Red Velvet, Princess Cake and Cookie, Cream Cheese emulsion, or even flavored water concentrates! SUGGESTIONS: *For savory options, try a scoop of Marmite Yeast Extract, S&B Golden Curry Sauce Mix, or Better Than Bouillon, Organic Chicken Base! *I do NOT recommend artificial flavors: Pumpkin, Rum or Peanut Butter which taste horrible (in my opinion) STEP 2: While heating the syrup, I mix: ~ 5 tbls of UNFLAVORED Whey Protein Powder ( Whey Protein Powder Isolate by BulkSupplements (1 kilograms) | Clean & Pure Unflavored 90% Isolate for Men & Women | Build Muscle Mass & Burn Fat Fast ) if I am adding flavor (or just choose a flavored protein you like) ~ 1 tbls coconut flour ~ A few "chunks" of something yummy (For Sweet, this could be butter cookies, dried blueberries, yogurt raisins, fruit snacks, etc. or for savory maybe add some chucked chicken, jerky sticks, nuts, crackers, whatever you want!) STEP 3: When the hot syrup is ready out of the microwave, mix the powder into the liquid until mixed well. Spoon the mixture into silicone bar pans ( Freshware SL-113RD 9-Cavity Narrow Silicone Mold for Soap, Cake, Bread, Cupcake, Cheesecake, Cornbread, Muffin, Brownie, and More ) and refrigerate for as little as a half an hour and they are ready to eat!

I am trying to elliminate all sugar from my diet as too much sugar makes my muscles ache and I can't sleep. I read on a low carb site that this is made from fiber so it doesn't get absorbed to raise blood sugar levels. I purchased this because I wanted to make a Pecan Pie substituting the corn syrup with this syrup and it worked! It is not real sweet, but it worked perfectly in this pie. Most Pecan Pies are sugary sweet and this made it very palatable with just enough sweetness to make this pie a huge hit even with my family that still uses sugar. While I don't have a glucose monitor, the pie made with this syrup didn't make my muscles ache and I slept like a baby. I am so glad that I found this product. It is a great substitute for me.

This product seems too good to be true! Kudos to modern science. No ill effects from gobbling down a whole bottle relatively quickly.That it has to be refrigerated and gets thick is too bad and it's way too expensive for regular use like Splenda. I guess it can find a nitch as pancake syrup and an additive to increase the much needed fiber in the diet. It has a mildly sweet taste which is delightful. Can't wait to try the protein bars!

I am very, very impressed with this stuff, and am just wishing I knew about it before now!!!!! I saw some protein bar recipes on Pinterest that called for this ingredient, with a link to Amazon, so naturally this is where I got it, and the coconut butter (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004NYDPCO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00) that goes in the bars as well. I can make 1 protein bar and it carries me through most of the day (after hot cereal for breakfast). It's a little bit expensive for me, but well worth it. I will probably buy the larger size next time. It's amazing how sinful this makes a protein bar taste - I would recommend this for anyone with blood sugar issues. I have a terrible sweet tooth and this really helps me stay away from sugary stuff. Plus no post-sugar crash afterwards!!!!

First I want to thank the company for their prompt customer service in right away sending me a new screw cap after I requested one (my latest order arrived intact, but with a broken screw cap). Such a response is greatly noticed and appreciated! But I also want to take this opportunity to express how much I love this product! I've been using it for about a year now, mostly to make homemade "rice crispy treats" (using VitaFiber and nut or seed butter instead of the usual butter and marshmallows) and homemade protein bars (using the VitaFiber, nut or seed butter, and flavored protein powder, usually Spiru-Tein from Nature's Plus), and it works wonderfully for both! I'm also experimenting with using the VitaFiber powder for similar recipes when we travel, though with that one I'm getting mixed results and keep needing to tweak it. But the syrup works exactly as hoped, creating a "glue" that holds the "bar" or "ball" together and giving it a satisfyingly chewy texture. And my digestive system has never experienced any adverse effects from the VitaFiber, which is a relief as there are certain ingredients that are majorly off-limits for me in this regard. I will definitely continue to use this product, and highly recommend it for those who prefer to make these type of foods for themselves, either out of personal preferences or due to dietary needs.
