Relaxation in a bar

27th October 2009 Print
Relaxation in a bar You’ve tried them all - muesli bars, protein bars, breakfast bars, energy bars - but how about a ‘relaxation’ bar?

What really sets the new WildBar apart from the crowd is that it contains an unusual blue-green algae called Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA). Whilst algae might not sound like the most appetising treat, AFA is super rich in phenylethylamine (30mg PEA per bar), as is one of WildBar’s other ingredients, raw cacao.

Phenylethylamine is a neuro-amine we produce naturally in the nervous system when we are calm, happy and focused. It also happens to be called the “love molecule” and has been proven to dramatically improve mood, concentration, mental energy and libido! Basically it helps us live life as we should: energized when we are awake, firing on all cylinders, and when the sun goes down, able to relax, switch off and sleep soundly.

Essentially the WildBar is more than just a snack; it’s ‘relaxation in a bar’. Available in Mayan Spice and Mountain Mint flavours, by combining Cacao and AFA with Macadamia Nuts, Agave Nectar, Hemp and Poppy Seeds, Mesquite (a sweet nutty tasting flour) and Himalayan Crystal Salt, not only are WildBars good for you but they taste fantastic too.
