GoMacro Introduces New Apples + Walnuts Macrobiotic Breakfast Bar

SAN DIEGO, CA, March 24, 2013 (Press-News.org) GoMacro, the certified organic manufacturer of macrobiotic, vegan, energy and protein bars, is introducing its new Apples + Walnuts morning harvest breakfast bar. Like all MacroBars, Apples + Walnuts is macrobiotic, USDA Organic, Gluten Free Certified, Kosher Certified, Non-GMO Project Verified, dairy free and soy free.

GoMacro's Apples + Walnuts bar contains five grams of protein, five grams of fiber and a full serving of fruit; ultimately providing an excellent source of fiber and protein per RDA recommendations. The 250-calorie Apples + Walnuts MacroBar was officially launched on January 15, 2013, joining a group of 10 other popular flavors. All GoMacro bars can be consumed as a snack or meal replacement.

"We wanted a breakfast bar that would taste great, but also provide the fiber, protein and nutrients necessary for busy people who do not always have the time to consume a proper sit down breakfast," said Amelia Kirchoff, co-founder of GoMacro. "With the presence of protein, fiber, and fruit, this minimally processed and certified organic bar serves as a healthy morning snack or meal that will make one feel full, while boosting the immune system. I have always felt that a good breakfast provides energy and fuel for the rest of the day, and Apples + Walnuts does exactly that."

Apples + Walnuts is made with fiber primarily from apple skins, which contain a significant amount of nutrients and soluble fiber for weight control. Other ingredients include walnuts, gluten free oats, cinnamon, a protein blend of brown rice protein and pea protein, almond butter, dates and brown rice syrup. The protein blend creates a balanced amino acid profile with a protein efficiency ratio that rivals that of animal-based foods.

GoMacro's Apples + Walnuts is available for purchase for $2.89 each at http://www.gomacro.com, and will soon be available in all health stores where MacroBars are currently sold.

About GoMacro

GoMacro makes wholesome healthy snacks and desserts in the form of macrobiotic, vegan, energy and protein bars that are made in small batches in a rural area of Wisconsin. GoMacro was founded in 2004 by mother and daughter team, Amelia Kirchoff and Jola Sonkin. Faced with cancer in the family, they researched treatments and discovered the macrobiotic diet; a diet based on whole grains, beans, fresh fruit and vegetables and the elimination of eggs, dairy, refined sugars, additives, and processed foods. Better health brought along a bigger appetite - including sweets. After creating macrobiotic desserts to satisfy their sweet cravings, the concept of GoMacro bars arose.

Using an individualized dynamic approach to make real food, GoMacro remains true to the macrobiotic promise of better health, a balanced lifestyle and a concern for the environment and all its inhabitants. GoMacro products use organic, gluten-free ingredients, complex carbs and healthy fats to create a pH-balanced environment in your body, leading to better absorption of minerals and other nutrients.

MacroBars can be purchased online or in various health stores throughout the country. Please visit GoMacro's store locator for a list of locations where products are sold.
