Wilde 720.328.0843 www.wildebrands.com BONK BREAKER'S BARS CONTAIN COLLAGEN AND GRASS-FED WHEY Bonk Breaker's history of delivering fresher, tastier, and healthier nutrition bars continues with Premium Protein Bars that use a cutting-edge blend of pasture-raised collagen protein and grass-fed whey for an all-natural, low-calorie, low- carbohydrate offering. Premium Protein Bars are under 200 calories with low net carbohydrates, made with all-natural, non-GMO ingredients, prebiotic fiber for digestive health and without artificial sugars or sugar alcohols. A blend of collagen and whey provides all nine amino acids for a vital source of complete protein. Collagen makes up 30 percent of the human body and has been shown to support joint health, stimulate a healthy metabolism, and promote healthy brain function. Collagen is not a complete protein on its own be- cause it's missing the essential amino acid tryptophan, which is why Bonk Breaker's proprietary recipe blends grass-fed whey and collagen. Premium Protein Bars are currently available in three flavors, Double Fudge Brownie, Cookies & Cream, and Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chip. Each offers 15 grams of protein. All Bonk Breaker bars are all natural, using real ingredients that are GMO free, paleo friendly, and gluten free. Bonk Breaker 310.315.4129 www.bonkbreaker.com
