Nutrition facts
About our calories . Learning why gRAWnola™ is so good.
Many of you have asked us about the number of calories in our grawnola.
We have few answers for you:
According to nutritional database information, the technical answer to the calorie question is 161 calories per 1.7oz bar – but that number isn’t truly accurate.
The complete answer requires some background. The calories in our grawnola are unusual because of the way we prepare our ingredients to make them ready for the body. Since the body is familiar with these nutrients as opposed to highly-processed food calories, weight questions, and calorie concerns need to be addressed differently. gRAWnola ingredients are body ready which means that are prepared in a way the body can digest, assimilate and fuel evolution. We only use pure and unprocessed ingredients which are enhanced through proper preparation so that all the nutrients – protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and enzymes – are optimized and available to you.
With that background, we are in a position to more fully answer the calorie question. All those smaller-sized properly-prepared gRAWnola components (essential fatty acids, amino acids and sugars) are not yet measured by the standard nutrient evaluation. Also in the soaking of the seeds, a certain portion of the nutrients including fats as well as vitamins and minerals are dissolved and rinsed away. So the total calorie amount of our gRAWnola is slightly less than what is stated.
We want you to consider that something very unique is happening – you can’t necessarily see it, but you can certainly feel it, when you eat our gRAWnola. This “new” experience of being nourished is ancient and the key to unlocking the calorie question. These calories not only feed us but give our bodies the energy that can even increase metabolism. Let your body remember that properly prepared food fuels you in a way that highly-processed calories can’t.

Thank you very much for your kind words. We apologize for the poorly sealed bars. We are aware and we are on top of it! Enjoy!
Had a sample of your Grawnola delivered with my organic produce through natures garden delivered. Absolutely loved it! I am so happy that it has a reasonable amount of calories. Where can I buy it in the Atlanta GA area?
You can purchase it directly from Nature’s Garden! It’s also available at Sevananda, Return to Eden, and Half-Moon Outfitters
TRIED YOUR PRODUCT A NUTRITION SMART FOR THE FIRST TIME. i AM A HEALTH NUT AND I RALLY FOUND YOUR PRODUCT TASTEFUL, HEARTY AND THEREFORE REFRESHING. KEEP IT UP!
Just bought my first Grawnola bar today and it was delicious! I was hesitant to buy it because have bought some other raw products (made by other companies) that are similar and frankly they were not good but this was outstanding, wish they were not so expensive to buy here in MD

I love your grawnola and the educational information on your site.
I have one comment about your packaging. The end of the bag needs to be sealed better. The bars keep slipping out of the cover.
Thanks for the healthy snack!
