12 Aug 2020 --- Quorn and Beyond Meat have both released studies highlighting how their vegan meat alternatives lower low-density lipoproteins (LDL), commonly known as “bad” cholesterol. Consumption of Quorn’s protein-rich mycoprotein resulted in a decrease of up to 19 percent in total cholesterol levels. Meanwhile, results of a Stanford University study revealed that upon Beyond Meat consumption, study participants’ LDL cholesterol dropped on average 10 mg per dL, which Beyond Meat notes as being “not only statistically but clinically significant.”
