CLIF Bar Inc. believes strongly that
what we put into our bodies matters; food feeds our souls, lifts our spirits,
nourishes and sustains us. LUNA Bars are the result of women requesting a bar
that "is delicious... has fewer than 200 calories...and is full of nutrients
that we need everyday." LUNA™ offers 22 vitamins, minerals and other nutrients
in quantities that make a real contribution to your good health and fitness. 80%
of women fail to get even two-thirds of the RDA for one or more nutrients.
LUNA is a delicious way to get the nutrition you may

Luna Bar Questions &
Answers
Why a bar only for women?
Many women fail to get adequate vitamins and minerals on a daily basis. LUNA
was created to help women get more of the nutrients often lacking in their meal
plans. That's why LUNA contains ingredients like folic acid, soy protein,
calcium, vitamins and minerals that are essential to a woman's everyday
nutritional needs. As women ourselves, we understand the importance of
maintaining a woman's overall health and wellness.
Can men eat LUNA bars too?
Yes, there is nothing in a LUNA bar that is not good for men. However, LUNA
bars are specifically formulated to provide women with the nutrients that are
often harder for them to get.
Can kids eat LUNA?
Because the bar is formulated with adult needs in mind, children should not
eat a whole bar until their nutritional needs more closely match those of an
adult (around ages 9-13). Children ages 4-9 could have half on occasion. As with
all food choices, parents should use their best judgment.
How much calcium does LUNA provide?
LUNA provides women with 350 mg of calcium — as much as in an 8 oz glass of
milk. Women need 1000-1200 mg per day and can reach that in 3-4 servings of
dairy or calcium-fortified foods per day.
How much folic acid is in LUNA?
LUNA contains 400 mcg of folic acid. It is recommended that women of
childbearing age get 400 mcg of folic acid each day from fortified foods or a
supplement in addition to what they get from food.
Why does LUNA contain soy protein?
As part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, 25 grams of soy
protein per day is recommended for heart health. LUNA contains 8-9 grams of soy
protein, which is important for maintaining a balanced diet and good heart
health.
Do LUNA bars contain genetically modified or bioengineered ingredients?
No, LUNA does not contain genetically modified or bioengineered ingredients.
LUNA is committed to keeping bioengineered material out of our products. We use
the best available practices, including careful sourcing of our soy suppliers
and written certification that the soy they provide us has been tested and has
not been bioengineered.
Are there any animal products in LUNA?
No, LUNA does not contain animal products or ingredients sourced from animal
products.
