Prevent high blood sugar

Immediately after eating –
The carbohydrates contained in most foods we eat are faster-acting carbohydrates that convert to blood sugar within a couple of hours and can cause blood sugar to spike dramatically. For this reason, health care professionals may caution individuals with diabetes to limit the amount of carbohydrates they eat.

Anytime Bar’s patented blend is different. It’s unique combination of slower-acting and faster-acting carbohydrates, combined with protein and fat converts gradually to blood sugar over 6-9 hours. So like low-carb, high-protein foods, ExtendBar won’t spike your blood sugar. But, unlike these low-carb, high-protein foods, Anytime Bar continues to supply your body with the blood sugar it needs to function properly far longer -up to 9 hours.

First thing in the morning –
What many people with diabetes don’t understand is that having high blood sugar in the morning can actually be caused by having low blood sugar overnight. This may be the case if you find your blood sugar levels are high in the morning, even though they were normal when you went to bed the night before.

That’s because, while you sleep, your blood sugar level naturally drops. If it drops too low, your liver releases glycogen (a stored form of glucose) into your blood stream.

When eaten as a bedtime snack, Anytime Bar helps prevent this phenomenon by supplying your body with a continuous, low level of glucose for up to 9 hours. This helps prevent your blood sugar levels from dropping low enough to trigger the release of glycogen from your liver. In fact, in a clinical study where an Anytime Bar was eaten as a bedtime snack, average morning blood sugar readings were 28% lower.
Control your hunger

One of the most challenging aspects of managing your weight when you have diabetes is controlling your appetite, which gets triggered each time your blood sugar level drops too quickly or too low. Anytime Bar’s slow conversion to glucose helps stabilize your blood sugar for up to 9 hours, to prevent the drops in blood sugar that trigger appetite, so you can keep your hunger in check. Even better, it’s been clinically proven to reduce the calories eaten at your next meal an average of 21%.

This doesn’t mean that with Anytime Bar you can go 9 hours without eating, but it can help you avoid those intense between meal cravings that often lead to unhealthy snacking and overeating at mealtime. In addition to a more satisfied feeling throughout the day, many people have reported significant weight loss after eating Anytime Bars regularly.
