Among the various dietary protein sources, plant-based origins contribute significantly, comprising 57% of the protein supply, while the remaining 43% includes dairy products (10%), shellfish and fish (6%), meat (18%), and other animal products (9%). Distinct biological properties of proteins...
essential amino acids (histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, valine) that cannot be produced by the body. Plant proteins do not contain all these amino acids. However, the vegetable proteins provide less saturated fat, and often vitamins, minerals,...
Globally, the production, distribution, sale and consumption of plant-based foods (PBFs) are on the increase due to heightened consumer awareness, a growing demand for clean label products, widespread efforts to promote and embrace sustainable practices,
Types of alternative meats Alternative meats encompass four primary categories based on their origin: plant-based, microorganism-based, animal-based, and insect-based meat analogs, each with distinctive sources and production processes (Fig. 2). Fig. 2 : Meat alternatives: types and advancements in...

“as long as you eat a variety of plant-based proteins throughout the day, you will get plenty of essential amino acids,” Rizzo says. There are a few plant-based foods that do contain all nine essential amino acids, which qualify them as complete protein sources, including soy (tofu, ...
The industrial and small-scale processing of plant-based food materials is associated with by-products that may have a negative impact on the environment but could add value to bread-based products. The bioactivity of plant-based food by-products, their impact on the properties of functional brea...
Compared to other plant-based proteins, soy protein, is considered to have a high protein quality. Table 1 summarizes the protein quality of whey, milk, and some plant protein sources, including soy, pea, and barley. Soy and pea are legumes that lack sulfur-containing amino acids (SAA), ...
Protein from non-animal sources has for centuries been the main part of the diet in some regions of the world, e.g. products based on soybean and wheat in China (Rödl, 2019). In some Western countries such as the UK, the number of vegetarians has constituted a considerable part of ...
Sources of wheat flour substitutes in bread making Legumes, cereal side-streams, and oilseed meal-based ingredients Rapid population growth, increasing incomes, and accelerated urbanization have led to an increased demand for animal-based proteins globally, particularly in developing countries, which comes...
