What is Oorja Nutrition Bar
Oorja (pronounced Oor-jah) Nutrition Bar is a natural protein bar with great taste. What sets this bar apart is that it offers unprecedented nutrition from natural ingredients. So much so that its nutrition rivals and often exceeds the performance you would normally get from bars with artificial or lot more ingredients. In other words, Oorja bar will help you achieve your fitness and diet goals without any compromise on ingredients, taste, or long term side effects.
Winner of Food Innovation
Oorja bar contains the highest combined amount of protein and fiber per gram compared to all leading natural bars. This distinction has yet to be beaten (Verified by third party audit. Detailed data available upon request).
In fact, Oorja bar won first place in the nutrition bar category, after being selected as one of the top 100 food innovation products globally. (Good Food Innovation Global Conference organized by 33Entrepreneurs of France and Bon Appetech of USA. )
Tasty
Yes, taste is a personal thing. In words of our customers, Oorja bars don't taste like brick, cardboard, or chalk like other protein bars do. An Oorja bar tastes clean and delicious in spite of only 6 gms of naturally occurring sugar and no artificial sweeteners. Customers describe the taste as "like taffy", "just the right amount of sweetness", "kids love it too!". You can taste the wholesome almond butter, a hint of honey, and a slight tinge of cinnamon as a playful aromatic topper. Chicory imparts sweetness to the bar, along with honey. For more, check out the customer reviews below for positive comments on taste. Bottomline: we are confident that you will like the taste. If you don't, we will refund your money in full, even if you have eaten a few bars. That's our guarantee and promise to you.
Nutrition Profile
What does a healthy balance of ALL the important macros look like? It looks like this: high bio-available protein (17g), high fiber (16g), lower sugar (6g), lower net carbs (7g), and lower sodium (90mg).
We accomplish all of this using only non-GMO natural ingredients. There is none of the bad stuff either. That means: No artificial sweeteners, no soy, no lab created "natural flavors", no HFCS, no trans fats, no artificial preservatives or additives, and no environment destroying palm oil.
How Best to take Advantage of Oorja Bar
Oorja bar has a high concentration of bio-available protein and fiber. Therefore, we encourage you to drink plenty of water just like you should with any high fiber food. It's water that unlocks the beneficial power of fiber and helps it do the job it is supposed to do. It also helps reduce GI distress if your body is not used to high fiber foods.
When is the Best Time to Eat Oorja Bars?
Short answer: any time! Customers often write to tell us how they use Oorja bars, and here are their three most common times:
- Meal replacement for breakfast. They don't feel hungry until afternoon. (High protein + high fiber)
- Late afternoon snack to counter late afternoon slumps.
- Pre and post-workout nutrition.

Recipe based on 100+ published studies from reputed sources.
1. We formulated the Oorja recipe based on extensive research of 100+ published studies in nutritional and medical sciences.
2. We sourced the best ingredients possible. We also paid attention to how they were sourced and how well they work when mixed with each other.
- Almond Butter: Almond butter has a low glycemic index, generous amount of magnesium that promotes heart health, protective antioxidants, healthy flavonoids, and contains several vitamins and minerals.
- Cold-processed Whey Protein Isolate: Our whey protein isolate is cold processed for maximum nutrient retention, has no preservatives, no animal by-products and no artificial hormones.
- Grass-fed Whey: Grass-fed Whey has increased levels of Omega 3s, improved amino acid nutrient levels, vitamins, minerals and healthy CLAs.
- Chicory Root Fiber: This natural prebiotic soluble fiber prevents constipation, helps lower cholesterol levels, provides increased fiber, and balances other fiber sources in the bar.
- Soluble Tapioca Fiber: This fiber provides further fiber support and feeds healthy gut bacteria.
- Cinnamon: Cinnamon is known to fight inflammation and bacteria, increase insulin sensitivity, reduce blood sugar levels, and lower cholesterol levels.
3. Each ingredient is carefully selected from the highest quality sources possible. We can trace all our ingredients to their suppliers and source countries.
4. We took special care to avoid sources that have a significant negative impact on our environment. For example, several leading bars use palm oil to support structure and texture of their bars. This is because palm oil is cheap and holds up well under pressure. However, 80% of the palm oil produced in the world is harvested non-sustainably, resulting in massive deforestation of large swaths of rich tropical rainforests. So we decided against using palm oil. Therefore, you will find that Oorja bars will never have palm oil in them.
5. Helps curb hunger.
6. Unlike many other protein bars, Oorja bar doesn't contain sucralose. Studies have shown that when sucralose is heated, it becomes carcinogenic. This means that you can safely heat an Oorja bar in a microwave for 15 seconds without worry and enjoy a moist and absolutely yummy cookie flavor experience.
7. Gluten and Grain free.
8. No GMOs.
9. Backed by several studies, we use protein sources with highest bioavailability. This means that your body absorbs and utilizes more of the protein in the bar. Many other leading bars contain inferior sources of protein, which are absorbed at a lesser extent by your body.

Your Taste and Your Health Above Everything Else.
Oorja is a protein bar for those who refuse to accept the status quo. For too long, protein bar makers have forced one compromise or the other. On one end of the spectrum, you must accept artificial junk with questionable ingredients if you want high macros and performance. On the other end, you must settle with inferior nutrition and weird taste if you want your bar to be natural and holistic. With Oorja, you don't have choose between one and the other! We made Oorja bars so that you get all the good stuff, none of the bad stuff, and a refreshing, great taste from natural ingredients. You also benefit from a healthy balance of ALL the macros, not just one or two.
