Energy bars and gels are nutrition supplements. They give you a boost of energy, of course, and provide you a quick, reliable, sometimes delicious way to fortify the body with the right nutrients.
Most bars have 200 to 300 calories. Gels have 75 to 100 calories but usually have a greater percentage of carbs. |

Energy bars and gels are better than candy bars and eating nothing at all, but not better than natural foods like fruits, fig cookies, etc. In my opinion, they are convenient and nutritional, but not a good substitute for proper nutrition. BUT, without a proper diet, you may miss out on fibers and nutrients in veggies and fruits. Energy bars should complement a balanced diet, not substitute it.
