Fruit and nut fans rejoice! These sweet, soft and chewy bars are chock full of cranberries and pecans for a classic flavor that will remind you of a delicious fall harvest. A little bit tart and a lot satisfying, the Cranberry Pecan Bar is overflowing with good-for-your-heart goodness like chia seeds, oat bran, and flax seeds. A lively way to start your day or break up your afternoon!
Scientifically proven to help lower cholesterol, every Cranberry Pecan Bar delivers clinically meaningful amounts of the four building blocks of heart health: whole food fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and plant sterols.
Made with only the finest ingredients, our products contain no preservatives, additives, colors, or flavors.
Found in foods like oat bran, flaxseed and dried fruit, fiber binds to cholesterol particles in the intestine and moves them out of the body.
Plant sterols - a group of substances made in plants such as nuts and seeds - block cholesterol absorption in the digestive tract.
Omega-3s - essential fatty acids present in foods such as chia seeds, walnuts and flaxseed - reduce inflammation and help lower triglycerides while raising HDL (good) cholesterol.
Found in foods like dark chocolate, berries and pecans, antioxidants help prevent the build-up of plaque in the blood vessels.
I no longer felt like I had a death sentence. There was something I could do to help lower my cholesterol.
My total cholesterol dropped 51 points, my LDL dropped 43 points, and I saw an improvement in my triglycerides.
I find Step One foods simplify and make consistency easy… your [products] make it easy to travel or be away for the day and never miss the nutrients!
My LDL improved by more than 80 points. I'm a physician and I did not believe it was possible, so I tested my cholesterol at two other facilities. The tests confirmed the results were real and I was thrilled.

I have blood work done every six months for a health condition. After a month it was time for my lab work. My doctor noted that my cholesterol looked really good. Unfortunately, I ran out of my Step One Products and forgot to order more (and quite honestly was thinking, love the products but do they REALLY work). Went back to the doctor and she said, "You need to do whatever you were doing before because your cholesterol and BP are moving in the wrong direction." I couldn't get on the Step One Foods site fast enough. Made a believer out of me! I am telling everyone.

These are my favorite. My cholesterol numbers have for the most part been decent over the years but my numbers have optimized more with these that is on Dec. 13, 2021 my Total Cholesterol was 174. HDL was 45, and LDL was 88; I am 65 years old and I am not on any medications. The pancakes are also good-it just takes a little more time.

These are a great snack for me. I tried Step One foods to lower cholesterol. I don't have an updated lab report yet. But since I made the decision to reduce added sugar and then started Step One, I have lost 10 pounds. These snacks satisfy my desire to snack and avoid unhealthy snacks.

Step One Foods products were developed by a cardiologist and have proven effective through a clinical trial subject to the same standards as a pharmaceutical clinical trial. Every serving of Step One Foods contains the precise levels of key nutrients proven to help lower cholesterol and improve cardiovascular health. Learn more about our clinical trial here.
Studies have shown that a change in diet can yield a significant impact on cholesterol levels in as little as 30 days. Effects on overall blood sugar control and weight will take longer.
No, if you are currently prescribed a statin by your physician, you should not discontinue it unless you consult with them. To most accurately assess how Step One Foods is impacting your cholesterol, you should take your statin in conjunction with Step One Foods twice per day. After 30 days of consistent use, you can test your cholesterol levels; if there is improvement (or even similar readings) you and your healthcare provider can discuss adjusting your prescription.
Step One Foods products are highly nutritious and very satisfying. High fiber content, complex carbohydrates and healthful fats ensure slow digestion and lower, steadier blood sugar levels, keeping you feeling fuller longer. Our foods are also meant to be used as a substitution for something you were eating before, which typically represents a calorie reduction and may lead to weight loss. And nearly all Step One Foods contain minimal to no sodium. Studies have shown that when you reduce sodium consumption and increase the intake of antioxidants from fruits and vegetables, you can attain significant blood pressure reductions.
We want you to be happy with our products and your results. If you don't enjoy one or more of your choices, we will gladly provide you with an exchange or a refund. Our guarantee applies to first time orders, or up to one month's worth of food cost.
