Frequently Asked Questions

What are Ziggy Bars?

Ziggy Bars are handcrafted snack bars that combine a selection of real food ingredients. They feature three key components—soluble fiber, insoluble fiber, and MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) from coconut oil—which work synergistically to help aid digestion. Our bars are crafted to be a preferable option for those looking for snacks with functional ingredients that may assist in supporting digestive well-being.

How Many Ziggy Bars Should I Eat?

Stick to one bar as your go-to. It's like a power-packed bowl of oatmeal and fruit, but way more fun to eat! These bars are made to support your body's natural 'go-time' without any laxatives – just real food to the rescue. They won't make you "go" unless you have to "go". Like oatmeal and salad.  But hey, if you find yourself reaching for a second bar, don't sweat it! You're not alone in the 'more is more' club. Just remember, Ziggy Bars are part of the bigger picture – your balanced diet. So, enjoy them in a way that makes your tummy and taste buds happy!

What ingredients are used in Ziggy Bars?

Our Ziggy Bars are made from a mix of wholesome ingredients, including rolled oats, oat flour, coconut oil, pureed dates, water, coconut sugar, chia seeds, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, and baking soda. In our chocolate variety, we blend in cocoa, while our peanut butter variant is enriched with real peanut butter.

**Please be aware that Ziggy Bars are created in a commercial kitchen where we share space with other food producers. This means that common allergens such as shellfish, nuts, wheat, and more are processed in the same area. Safety and cleanliness are top priorities for us, but for those with severe allergies, it’s wise to consult a healthcare professional before introducing new foods to your diet.

Are Ziggy Bars suitable for children?

They're also a thoughtful choice for expectant mothers, the elderly, and individuals undergoing chemotherapy. However, always consult the ingredients list for any dietary concerns or allergies you or your child may have.

We're glad you asked! Ziggy Bars are gluten-free. For those with peanut sensitivities, be aware that our peanut butter bars do contain peanuts. Also, our bars are made in a commercial kitchen where shellfish, nuts, wheat, and other allergens are processed. While we strive for the highest safety standards, if you have severe allergies, it's wise to check with a healthcare provider before introducing new foods into your diet.

To keep your Ziggy Bars at their best, stash them somewhere cool and dry, out of the sun's rays. Since they're crafted without chemicals and preservatives, they'll stay fresh for up to two weeks.

Do Ziggy Bars help soften stool?

We get how challenging it can be, especially for kids and those on the spectrum, to face the discomfort of hard stools. That's why our Ziggy Bars are made with a caring blend of ingredients. Chia seeds are a fantastic source of fiber that can help to create a more manageable texture, making things a bit easier. Plus, the coconut oil in our bars is not just for taste—it's rich in MCTs (Medium-Chain Triglycerides), known for their supportive role in softening stool. Combined, these ingredients are part of our commitment to providing a snack that can offer a little ease when it’s needed.

What are the ingredients in Ziggy Bars that help you 'go'?

Oh, we've got the good stuff! Ziggy Bars are packed with several functional ingredients that help support your digestive rhythm. Oats offer a hearty helping of soluble fiber, chia seeds bring on the insoluble fiber, dates provide a natural sweetness along with additional fiber, and coconut oil adds a smooth touch that ties it all together. It's like a little band of natural helpers, all working together to keep you feeling groovy!
