Your Protein Energy Bars Aren't Healthy with Bright Bar Founder Brenden Schaefer
The Clean Body Podcast introduces you to the souls and brains behind some of the cleanest food beverage and lifestyle products on the market, because what you put on in and around your body matters from cookies, bread, and mushroom superfoods to adaptogenic lozenges, clean medicines, organic mattresses, and fluoride-free toothpaste, we'll explore how the brands came to be, how scientific studies drove decisions about ingredients and materials, and most importantly, how the products support all the physical and mental microscopic miracles that occur in your body every minute of every day.
As the driving force behind Bright Bar, Brenden Schaefer is committed to creating convenient, nutrient-dense, and clean food made with whole vegetables, fruits, nuts, and superfoods. Brenden started the company from his garage in 2016, motivated by a desire to revolutionize the world of packaged food - and to satisfy his personal need for a plant-powered, delicious snack to fuel his active lifestyle. Brenden lives in Los Angeles, CA where he enjoys spending time with his wife and two kids, cycling, practicing yoga, and eating way too many refrigerated bars.
