Researchers compared the effects of genuine meat versus plant-based meat substitutes on cardiovascular health and diabetes risk in a recent study that was published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Because plant-based diets contain a wide range of health-promoting nutrients such vitamins, fibre, and antioxidants, it has been discovered that these diets are good for metabolic and cardiac health, according to Medical News Today.
However, because of ingrained financial, historical, and cultural pressures on meat consumption, as well as long-standing cultural and societal norms, adopting such diets can be difficult for people who frequently consume meat.
As a result, there is a greeny meat alternative. Plant-based meat analogues (PBMAs) are designed to act as a copy of the taste and texture of real meat. It uses sustainable ingredients and have become increasingly popular worldwide.
While PBMAs were higher in sodium, potassium, and calcium, nutrient analysis showed that the animal meat diet contains more protein.
Moreover, other research suggests that proteins from PBMAs might not be as easily taken in as those from animal meats. This really affects insulin and gut hormone responses differently.
