Question:
Anyone else dump on Detour Bars?

Ok, I went out and bought the Detour Proten Bars that taste like a Snickers Bar. They are WONDERFUL. However, I found that I can only eat between 1/3 and 1/2 of the bar. If I eat more than 1/2 of a bar within a 2 hour timeframe, I dump! I get nauseous, hot, clammy, and weak. I space out the bars now. Anyone else have this reaction?    — Kathy J.

The Detour Bars do have 9g of sugar per bar, so if you are sensitive to dumping on sugar, this could do it. My advice is to limit your consumption to those amounts that you know you are safe with...JR

Yes. Early testing showed them to test at 20g sugar. Of course, then it is said that's a rumor. I dunno, my dump-o-meter can't read advertising hype. It only reads sugar g. 1/3 is more than plenty for me

I have only tried one, and only half at a time - and did fine with that. However, I have learned from past mistakes. Of all the protein bars I've tried, one bite more than half makes me dump! (I also am unable to tolerate protein shakes) Just live and learn, go with what your body is comfortable with. Enjoy!

HI Kathy...I too dump on the Detour Bars...I'm 7 weeks post op and have tried 1/8 of a bar twice and both times dumped terribly. These are the only times I have dumped since surgery. I bought 3 boxes of them too lol I guess I'll wait a month or so and try again. Josii*
