Protein bars are one of the most convenient ways to increase daily protein intake. Most bars contain:

  • 15–25g protein per serving

  • 150–300 calories

  • Whey, milk, or plant-based protein sources

They are commonly used for post-workout recovery, muscle building support, appetite control, and busy lifestyles where whole meals aren’t always practical.
