This is what it takes to get a Heart Mark:
- First, the product applies for endorsement.
- Next, it is thoroughly tested by an independent, accredited lab.
- The laboratory results are then examined by a team of dietitians.
- Levels of fats, cholesterol, fibre, sodium and sugar are checked to see if nutritional criteria are met.
- Now the product is ready to receive our stamp of approval.
- But not before its packaging is assessed for nutritional accuracy according to our strict requirements.
- It may seem excessive, but it means that every Heart Mark approved product is nutritionally sound.
Look out for the healthy choice you can trust!
