After a rigorous review process, Beyond Steak
®,
the latest groundbreaking innovation by Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ:
BYND), a leader in plant-based meat, is now certified by the
American Heart Association’s Heart-Check Food Certification
Program. Beyond Steak joins the ranks of a select number of
products that meet the American Heart Association’s exacting
nutrition criteria to help people make informed choices about the
food they purchase.
Behind the Heart-Check Mark’s Scientific Nutrition
Requirements
The Heart-Check Mark is part of the American
Heart Association’s mission to fight heart disease and stroke, with
cardiovascular disease as the leading cause of death in the U.S.1
The American Heart Association’s Heart-Check Food Certification
program provides consumers with an easy and reliable system for
identifying healthier foods when reading nutrition labels. When
consumers see the Heart-Check Mark, they instantly know the food
has been certified to meet the nutritional requirements of the
American Heart Association, including being low in saturated and
trans fats, cholesterol and sodium, and having over 10% of the
Daily Value of essential nutrients.
“For nearly 100 years, the American Heart
Association has been helping people live longer, healthier lives.
As part of that legacy, the Heart-Check Mark has become a gold
standard in empowering consumers to make informed health
decisions,” said Beyond Meat CEO Ethan Brown. “Like the American
Heart Association, we want to be part of the solution by providing
individuals access to and resources on nutritious options that
don’t compromise on taste or sustainability. With this recognition,
Beyond Steak becomes part of a group of certified and trusted foods
that everyone can enjoy with the confidence that they are making a
great decision for their health.”
Beyond Steak: Delicious Taste of Seared Steak Tips with
Impressive Nutrition Facts2
Beyond Steak has quickly become a consumer
favorite and received rave reviews3 for delivering a juicy, meaty
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 a good 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 or
added antibiotics and hormones – nutritionals that make it a
heart-healthy steak product.
A better-for-you option that is easy-to-cook and
portionable, Beyond Steak can be prepared in a skillet or air fryer
in just five minutes and adds craveable flavor to popular dishes,
from fajitas and tacos to stir fries, sandwiches and salads.
Advancing Research on the Health Benefits of Plant-Based
Meat
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.
Consumers can find Beyond Steak at a retailer
