"Can vegan meat be a staple food? ~ Verification series ”


"Can vegan meat be a staple food? ~ Verification series ”


Plant-based processed meat products (so-called vegan meats) such as Impossible Burger and Beyond Meat are also being promoted in this fake pandemic.


These vegetable substitutes are representative of extremely advanced processed foods.


It is neither eco-friendly nor natural nor healthy.


This time, let's look at this vegan meat from a nutritional point of view.


Vegan meat has a decisive lack of nutritional content.


It is potassium, magnesium, calcium, vitamin B12 and amino acids.


Especially with regard to protein, vegan meat cannot be a substitute for animal foods because plant-based foods are poorly absorbed (Unintended Consequences: Nutritional Impact and Potential Pitfalls of Switching from Animal- to Plant-Based Foods. Nutrients. 2021 Aug; 13 (8): 2527).


Moreover····


Studies analyzing metabolites have reported that there is a 90% difference in nutritional content between vegan meats and animal foods, that is, they are completely different substances (A metabolomics comparison of plant-based meat). and grass-fed meat indicates large nutritional differences despite comparable nutrition Facts panels. Sci Rep. 2021; 11: 13828).


For example, metabolites of substances such as creatinine, proline (a constituent amino acid of collagen), carnosin and glucosamine, which are also famous as supplements, are found only in animal foods such as beef.


Deficiency of these substances causes cognitive dysfunction, cardiovascular disorders, retinal function, liver function, muscle synthesis and connective tissue abnormalities (Important roles of dietary taurine, creatine, carnosine, anserine and 4-hydroxyproline in human nutrition and health. Amino Acids. 2020; 20: 329–360) (Arachidonic acid: Physiological roles and potential health benefits—A review. J. Adv. Res. 2018; 11: 33–41).


From the above research results, the spread of vegan meat may accelerate chronic diseases, but it does not become a substitute for animal foods or a staple food for us humans.


Human history has been declining healthy life expectancy with the advent of grains, processed foods and GMOs since the hunter-gatherer era.


And there is no doubt that the emergence of unnatural super-processed meats, which are meat substitutes, will support this.


Meat substitutes are super-processed foods that do not even have a large number of toxic ingredients labeled as raw materials.


In the olden days, coconut oil and eggs were also used for mayonnaise.


Now this replaces GMO's canola oil (Poufa & Glyphosate) and fake eggs.


Don't be fooled by the pleasant word "vegetable".


This is just "fake meat".


If you can judge the unnatural things that have been strangely processed by "gut Fehling (visceral thinking)" instead of the head, no mistake should occur (^ _-)-☆.
