Ingredient Score:
Bear Naked Fit Triple Berry earns a rating of 2/5 green leaves on our scale. This product is a granola that aims to offer a berry-infused, nutritious option for health-conscious consumers. However, it falls short in several areas according to our clean food criteria.
The granola is not organic, which detracts from its potential to be a truly clean food choice. While it does use non-GMO ingredients, a positive aspect, it is heavily penalized for its added sugars. Ingredients such as brown sugar and sugar are present, contributing to its lower score. More concerning are the additional harmful sweeteners like cane sugar and brown rice syrup, which are less desirable for a clean diet and reflect negatively on the product’s healthfulness.
Another significant issue is the inclusion of potentially harmful additives. The terms ‘natural flavors’ and ‘glycerin’ on the label are ambiguous and often indicate the presence of unnecessary chemicals that do not align with a clean eating philosophy. Furthermore, the use of canola oil, which is a highly processed oil, further lowers the product’s standing.
The presence of whole grain oats, pumpkin seeds, and actual berries, such as strawberries and blueberries, are overshadowed by these less favorable ingredients. While these elements could contribute positively to the nutritional profile of the granola, they are not enough to counterbalance the negative impact of the other ingredients.
The product would benefit greatly from a reformulation that focuses on organic ingredients, eliminates added sugars and harmful additives, and replaces harmful oils with healthier alternatives. Such changes would align the product more closely with the clean food options consumers are increasingly seeking. Until then, Bear Naked Fit Triple Berry does not meet the standards for those looking for the cleanest food choices in the marketplace.
