1. Coffee with Larry has its first sponsor! #JAMBAR, the Organic artisan sports nutrition bar, is now our official Sports Nutrition Sports Bar sponsor for CWL.

2. Founded in 2021, Jenny Maxwell, co-founder of the category with her late husband, Brian Maxwell (Powerbar in 1985), is a sports nutritionist.

3. The JAMBAR sports nutrition bar uses healthy complex carbohydrates, plus 10 grams of protein and Maple syrup as sweetener, which provides the user much fewer glycemic spikes.

4. To learn more about JAMBAR and to get an intro 15 percent discount, please go to www.jambar.com.

5. Another point I love about JAMBAR is that they donate 50 percent of their net profits to music and arts programs!
