Are Naked Bars Syn Friendly On Slimming World? - Our Guide
Having syn-friendly snacks on hand when doing the slimming world diet is key to success, especially ones which you can grab on the go, but what about Naked bars, are they slimming world friendly?
Naked bars can have slightly different syns according to the flavour that you are buying, but on average you will find that they have around 6.5 syns a bar, making them high in syns.
We've discussed in further detail below why Naked bars are high in syns, syn values, plus some other low syn alternative bars to stock up on for when you are feeling peckish.
Why Are Naked Bars So High In Syns?
At 6.5 syns a bar, you could have up to two Naked bars a day before nearing your whole 15 syn daily allowance, making them very high in syns.
These bars get their high syn values from the nuts and pressed fruit inside of them, nuts typically have a high calorie content and the pressed fruits inside have a lot of natural sugar, with one bar having up to 18g of sugar, so they should only be eaten within moderation.
