Multipower Power Pack


 Power Pack Vanilla®

Overview

Here’s what Multipower have to say:

With 28 % high-quality protein the Power Pack Vanilla is a good protein source to support recovery after training. The optimum ratio of protein: carbs:fat also makes it ideal as a snack in between meals.

So a relatively small amount of protein and a modest amount of a carbs means this is probably geared more towards being a healthier option for a snack than a protein bar to help you hit your macros.

The calories are lower than most chocolate bars and the macros are definitely better so its essentially a healthy chocolate bar.

Taste
It tastes great, it’s a little bit chewy but not to the point where it’s a problem. The chocolate coating actually tastes like real chocolate which makes the whole bar more appealing. It doesn’t have a bad after taste and it never repeated on me.

Side Effects
None

Price
£25.99 for a pack of 24.

Results
Power Pack is great when you need a quick boost in between meals. These kind of bars aren’t supposed to be a daily treat, they are supposed to be used when you would normally be reaching for a chocolate bar and to keep yourself on track you have the healthier option instead.

The protein content is a little low so this wouldn’t be used for recovery or muscle building and there are no fat burning ingredients included so its not a diet bar, it has no primary purpose other than to be a healthy alternative to a chocolate bar. This could be slotted into any nutritional plan but if you’re looking to bulk then I would personally go with a slightly higher protein/calorie bar. These would be a great for a maintenance or cutting plan though, keep them handy for when you can’t go another minute without some kind of treat.

They are slightly more expensive than a chocolate bar at £1.08 per bar but with 24 in a pack they should last you quite a few months.

Power Pack when used correctly (as a treat and not a daily snack) will help you stick to your diet plan and achieve your body goals. 6/10
