The People’s Chemist Body Bar: Real Food for Real Muscle

This guest post is courtesy of HIT Woman extraordinaire, Lea-Ann. If you’re currently taking part in Hormone Intelligence Therapy (HIT), you’ll enjoy this unique recipe for sustaining and building muscle! Mom’s who are pregnant will also enjoy this calorie rich food that satisfies without spiking our fat storing hormone, insulin.

Look around the gym sometime. The people who look the fittest and stand out the most, aren’t drinking Vitamin Water or munching a Sports Bar. That’s because both put you into the Fat Gain Hall of Fame…If you want all the dirty details about how they make you “hormonally ignorant,” you can read about it in Over-The-Counter Natural Cures. Otherwise, here are five things that suck about sports bars and a good replacement:

1. Eating too many will “suck” the sexiness right out of you, thanks to being loaded with sugar 2. They are addictive because they rarely have healthy fats or enough protein to keep you feeling full 3. They force you to snack, therefore spiking your fat storing hormone insulin, between meals 4. They don’t make you better at sports 5. Nothing natural about them

Now, I understand the need for convenience. So here is my solution: “The People’s Chemist Approved” Body Bar. Yes, they are the bomb, caloric bomb that is, so read the warning below.

Nutrition facts

This recipe will make 24 bars. ONE bar is a serving. Not FIVE!

Calories: 323

Fat: 23

Protein: 14

Carbohydrates: 17

Sugar (from dark chocolate, blueberries and bananas): 6

Recipe

2 mashed bananas

3 cups instant oats

4 tbs ground flax seed

6-8 scoops Whey Advanced Silk Chocolate

½ cup almond butter

½ cup coconut oil (melted)

½ cup water

4 tbs dark chocolate chunks

½ cup dried blueberries

Instructions:

Mix everything together except the chocolate chunks. This will work best if you add and mix one ingredient at a time. It’s very sticky. Line a 9 x 13 pan with foil or wax paper. I like the wax paper best. Add mixed ingredients to the pan, spread. Melt the chocolate chunks in a pan and add a little water as you go so it stays creamy and doesn’t harden. Spread the chocolate over the spread and freeze for at least 2 hours. Thaw for 5 minutes, cut into bars. Enjoy.
