Nutrigrain bars typically have between 6-7 syns for a 37g bar, but these syns can go up according to the flavour and size of the Nutri-Grain bar.

We've discussed in further detail below why Nutrigrain bars are quite high in syns, some of their syns and some low syn alternatives to snack on the go with.

Why Are Nutrigrain Bars High In Syns?

At 6-7 syns for a 37g Nutrigrain bar, these snack bars are quite high in syns, consuming half of your 15 syn daily allowance.

Nutrigrain bars are high in syns due to their added flavourings which can make them very high in sugar, for example, Kellog Nutrigrain strawberry bars have 12g of sugar in them! We, therefore, suggest having these bars in moderation or checking out other types of Kellogg's cereal bars.
