Enjoy Life Granola

Recommended Posts

I know there have been a lot of people who have commented in past threads about how the Enjoy Life Granola is basically inedible because it is rock hard and impossible to chew. Well I thought everyone might want to know that they've reformulated their recipe, and now it is soooooo much better! The consistency is more like that of regular granola and it is so easy to chew! It makes me so happy to be able to eat it without fearing that I'll break a tooth :lol:

If anybody decides to try it again, just beware that they've only just made the switch, so only the bags that say "new and improved recipe" with a 55 cent coupon attached to them are the new ones, all the rest are still the rock solid kind.

For anybody who hated it before, I would definitely consider giving it a second chance now!

This is good to hear I am one of the weirdo's who actually really liked the old version of the granola. However I bought a bag of the new formulated cereal and nearly broke a tooth. I mean it was harder than the original so hopefully I just got a fluke bag of the new recipe! I will try it again

Thanks for posting. I'm going to try it again. I bought one or two bags of it, and had to have my jaw realigned both times!! LOL :lol:

Seriously, I didn't find it to be very palatable. I'll give it another shot though.

Is it for all the granolas? The recipe seems to be the same online.

Ooh--thanks for posting this! I've held off buying the granola because of the reports of it being so hard. I'll look for the new packages :D

There is one by Bakery on Main that is really good. It has a lot of nuts and corn flakes. There is a cranberry one that is DANK!

Yeah - it is for all granolas. I don't know why they haven't posted anything about it online but I e-mailed the company and they verified that they changed the recipe and soon all the stores will be selling the new kind. I guess they're just behind on their web update :D

That's funny - I'm eating the Enjoy Life new and improved... Very Berry Crunch while I was reading this. It's pretty good. Doesn't seem too hard, though I didn't try the previous version of it. Very high in carbs though...

The new version is definitely better - much more like 'real' granola. But it's still too sweet. :/

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
