Q. What is "SoLean®"?
A. SoLean® is a healthful blend of Natural lean ground meat combined with heart healthy soy protein. Our products are fully cooked and microwaveable for your convenience. You can find SoLean® brand products in your grocer's freezer case. |
Q. Why do you have meat in SoLean®?
A. Beef contains many essential nutrients. Beef is the leading source of Zinc in the human diet and third leading source of Iron. Beef is also an important source of B vitamins. It is possible to obtain these from non-meat sources but that requires a thorough knowledge of nutrition and careful menu planning. SoLean® combines the nutrients, taste and texture of natural lean meat with all of the health benefits of soy. |
Q. What kind of beef do you use?
A. We use all natural lean beef containing no added hormones and no antibiotics from animals raised on an all vegetable diet. Even though beef is the main ingredient our finished beef products still contain no more than 3 grams of fat and no more than 1 gram of saturated fat per serving. |
Q. What led to Natural Harmony Foods' creation of the SoLean® family of healthful products?
A. In short, the increasing concerns about the overall health of the American public, which is consuming record amounts of ground beef. Now, for the first time, the FDA and the USDA are working in concert to encourage soy consumption as a healthier alternative. Natural Harmony Foods' SoLean® brand foods combine lean meat with soy protein, which has been proven to reduce the risk of heart disease. |
Q. Why hasn't someone else already done it?
A. Presently, manufacturers of replacement products for ground meat do not have meat inspection facilities and they are enjoying significant revenue growth (about 20% per year). These companies' largest percentage of sales is to vegetarians through health food stores. As for the major meat producers, we think they believe combining beef and soy means selling less meat. We think the opposite is true - it will be possible to sell more meat by offering healthier ways to combine and serve meat. |
Q. Where can I find SoLean®?
A. In your grocer's freezer case. If SoLean® is not currently available in your area, please submit a request online and we will forward it to the appropriate grocery buyer in your area.
