Special Ingredients
De-Bittered Stevia has no unpleasant aftertaste or bitterness like typical stevia sweeteners.
Unsweetened coconut flakes are high in fiber and protein, with 1-2 net carbs per serving.

Organic coconut oil burns fat rapidly. Fats from coconut oil aren’t stored. Instead, they’re used immediately for energy.
Coconut oil stays fresh up to two years, has a nice buttery flavor, and is one of the healthiest choices for cooking or baking.
Left Coast’s MCT oil blend converts into energy faster than other oils, ignites your body’s metabolic rate and helps maintain healthy levels of cholesterol.
Triple filtered, pharmaceutical grade and USA-made.

Lemon Coconut Bars
Brighten up your bars with 1 teaspoon lemon juice and a little lemon zest. In a pinch, use a few spoonfuls of lemon flavored sugar-free Jello (powder – not fully prepared Jello).
