Plant-Based Meat And Milk Offer Similar Or Better Nutrition Than Animal Products, Study Finds
An analysis by ProVeg International has found that fortified plant-based products can be healthier than their animal-based counterparts
This is great to hear. I see a lot of bad faith arguments from carnist about the nutritional aspect of plant based meats. If you want vitamins, eat veg. I find it hard to take a person seriously when they act as though the barrier to veganism is the efficiency with which they can ingest protein.
Carnists raise these arguments but then stuff themselves with fast food and other unhealthy stuff.
Have they solved the salt problem? The first few iterations were pretty high in sodium.
1.3g of salt average per 100g for plant-based meat vs. 1.1g of salt average per 100g of animal meat. So yes, they’re comparable now. This is directly in the article by the way, a quick click would have answered this for you.
I always thought this focus on salt was strategic given the amount of salt in most processed foods that are often also consumed by carnists and SAD followers. If I ate meat I’d probably be more worried about heart disease than excess salt in an already processed food..
Nice try, Hippie.
