Is it really possible that plant-based foods such as the Impossible Whopper are healthful?

By Cara Rosenbloom September 9, 2019 

With many American consumers interested in reducing their consumption of animal products without becoming vegetarian or vegan, the food industry has come up with a new craze: plant-based. Look around your grocery store, and you’ll see a growing number of dairy, egg and meat substitutes bearing this label.

But the industry has taken liberties with the definition of “plant-based.” Rather than focusing on whole foods such as vegetables, fruits, legumes and nuts, which is what health professionals mean when they recommend “plant-based eating,” food manufacturers are developing ultra-processed burgers out of pea or soy protein, methylcellulose and maltodextrin, and liquid “eggs” out of mung bean protein isolate and gellan gum. Then they crown this ultra-processed food with an undeserved health halo.

(…)

Plant-based ultra-processed products such as these are formulated to taste like the real deal. Thus, consumers can feel virtuous or principled for choosing plants over meat without sacrificing too much flavor. But is there any value to plant-based products that have been crushed, extruded and shaped into facsimiles of the foods they are replacing? Let’s look at that question through several lenses — considering nutrients, how processed the food is and how producing the food affects the planet.

When I was in nutrition school, the health value of food was mostly calculated based on the presence of desirable nutrients, such as fiber and vitamins, and on the absence of negative nutrients, such as sodium or trans fat. If you compare ultra-processed plant-based foods and similar animal-based foods solely on their nutrients, you’ll find they are roughly the same. 

Plant-based foods are purposely formulated to mimic animal-based foods, so plant-based milk is enriched with calcium and vitamin D to mimic cow’s milk, while veggie burgers are rich in protein and made with iron and zinc to imitate beef. But they aren’t always made to reduce the presence of less-healthy nutrients. Sometimes, the processed plant-based food will have more sodium than the processed animal-based food, and sometimes the animal food will be higher in calories or saturated fat.

(…)

Using the term “plant-based” on fast food labels is just another attempt by marketers to re-brand junk food. True plant-based eating doesn’t mean opting for an Impossible Whopper in the drive-through or scrambling up some 15-ingredient “egg alternative.” It means a diet that includes nourishing options such as black beans, broccoli and brown rice. We’re always looking for some magical way to eat junky food and achieve health. Don’t be fooled by this plant-based pretense.

“A lei Adolfo Gordo era uma constante ameaça a todos, meio de intimidação e vingança, um cutelo suspenso na cabeça do irreverente ou inconformado. O fazendeiro ameaçava o colono. O industrial ameaçava o operário. Ou se submetiam a qualquer iniquidade, a aceitar condições vexatórias e prejudiciais, ou eram denunciados como elementos perigosos à tranquilidade pública. Para tal, não eram precisas provas: a informação policial era suficiente!”

I. O FSH, hormônio folículo estimulante, é adenoipofisário e estimula o crescimento folicular, um dos fenômenos que promovem a secreção de estrogênio e, mais tarde, dá condições para a ovulação.

II. O LH, hormônio luteinizante, transforma o folículo ovariano em corpo lúteo ou amarelo, além de promover diretamente a ovulação.

III. Altas taxas de estrogênio e de progesterona promovem o crescimento do endométrio, parede interna do útero, onde um embrião poderá se desenvolver.

IV. Manter altas as taxas de estrogênio e de progesterona desde a fase folicular são a base do funcionamento da pílula anticoncepcional.

V. Os hormônios FSH e LH estão presentes na pílula anticoncepcional.

O chupim (Molothrus banariensis) é uma ave que não faz ninho e coloca seus ovos no ninho de outras aves (por exemplo, o tico-tico), para que essas choquem os ovos e alimentem os seus filhotes. Trata-se de um caso de exploração do “trabalho” de outra espécie.

A relação do chupim com o tico-tico é um exemplo de
