Hello,

I would vote in favor of balanced diet, if there is no special reason for eating protein bars.

If there is genuine reason for having protein bar then he can have them. Importantly, muscle building is not a genuine reason. Good products are safe but slightly expensive.

Please ask if there are doubts or further question.
Regards.
