Following a rigorous evaluation by the Good Housekeeping
Institute’s Nutrition Lab, Beyond Steak by Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:
BYND), a leader in plant-based meat, has received the Good
Housekeeping Nutritionist Approved Emblem, making it the first
plant-based meat product to receive this honor.
The latest innovation from Beyond Meat, Beyond Steak is seared
to a perfect crisp1 and chopped into bite-sized pieces, quickly
becoming a favorite2 and receiving rave reviews for delivering a
juicy, meaty3 taste that satisfies meat lovers and flexitarians
alike. Made with simple and clean plant-based ingredients, Beyond
Steak boasts a strong nutritional profile and is an excellent
source of protein, with 21g of protein and 170 calories per
serving. Beyond Steak is also low in saturated fat (1g per serving)
with no cholesterol, GMOs, added antibiotics or hormones.
“Our nutrition experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute are
committed to maximizing consumers’ overall health and wellbeing by
providing trustworthy, evidence-based nutrition content and
recommendations that encourage a balanced diet,” said Good
Housekeeping Institute’s Registered Dietitian and Nutrition
Director Stefani Sassos, MS, RDN, CSO, CDN. “Through our
evaluation, it was clear that Beyond Steak is a groundbreaking
innovation with its balanced flavor profile, tender texture and,
most importantly, very impressive nutrition facts. Made free from
GMOs, Beyond Steak is also cholesterol-free and low in saturated
fat but still high in protein. With Beyond Steak, consumers don’t
have to compromise on taste, nutrition or sustainability.”
The Good Housekeeping Nutritionist Approved Emblem was developed
to help consumers lead healthier lives by empowering them to make
informed food choices. Not only does the emblem provide a solution
for those looking to be more health-conscious, but the products
selected are also practical and evoke the tried-and-tested
assurance of the Good Housekeeping brand in the food space. The
Nutrition Lab assesses food products based on specific nutritional
criteria as well as taste, simplicity, convenience and
transparency.
“Beyond Steak is a perfect example of our brand promise to
continuously innovate toward a North Star that not only delivers on
delicious taste, but also provides clear nutritional benefits
relative to animal-based meat,” said Kate Dugan, Vice President of
Brand Innovation at Beyond Meat. “To have this product aligned with
such a prestigious emblem reinforces the health impact of Beyond
Steak, which was achieved without sacrificing on taste or
sustainability. We’re so excited for consumers to continue enjoying
Beyond Steak in their favorite dishes.”
As part of its commitment to improving human health, Beyond Meat
is dedicated to supporting scientific and evidence-based research
on the health implications of shifting from animal-based meat to
plant-based meat. For example, in the SWAP-MEAT study, which was
published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition,
researchers reported the positive impacts of replacing animal-based
meat with Beyond Meat’s plant-based meat over an eight-week period,
including the improvement of several cardiovascular disease risk
factors, such as LDL cholesterol levels and TMAO. Beyond Meat
continues to support ongoing studies at the Plant-Based Diet
Initiative at Stanford University School of Medicine and last year
signed a multi-year agreement with the American Cancer Society to
advance research on plant-based meat and cancer prevention.
