Beyond Burger - Friday Food Talk
Nutripledege rates Beyond Burger as a Red Dot | Watch Out food!
The Good
- Zero trans fats.
- Excellent source of Iron.
- Moderate calories per serving.
- Healthy balance of fat, saturated fats, sodium, carbohydrates, fiber and sugars.
The Bad
High Protein, Low Calories: This food offers a high protein content relative to its calorie level. Very high protein intake is generally unnecessary unless you have specific health conditions like wounds, cancer, or are an athlete. Excessive protein can strain your kidneys, liver, and overall body function.
The Ugly
Product with Added Preservatives and Additives:
Additives and flavors are listed in the ingredient list, but the exact formula is often a trade secret. If unsure about an ingredient, contact the manufacturer for more information before regularly consuming the product.
Our recommendation:
While this product is high in protein, it’s
important to consume it with caution as everyone’s protein needs vary based on
age, gender, and health conditions. Remember to cut down on processed foods to
avoid unnecessary additives and preservatives. Home-cooked meals are always
healthier and more balanced for optimum health. Try our homemade Beet Quinoa and Wild Rice Burger, and eat with intention, responsibility, and confidence!
