Quite a bit of criticism in this review of the "alternative protein" industry: plant-based imitations, cellular agriculture (e.g. lab meat), mycoproteins, insects, precision fermentation, algae.

"There have now been several reports from biotechnology experts that have questioned the optimism of @GoodFoodInst for [cellular agriculture]"
Relates to the costs of culture media, downstream processing, formulation, operation at pharmaceutical quality to prevent contamination.
"The procedures to make plant-based food are sometimes so extensive that the final product would fall under the #ultraprocessed food (UPF) category, the same category in which products that we know as ‘junk food’ already exist"

🎥 Mon analyse sur les Aliments #UltraTransformés (AUT) et la santé : 👨‍🔬 que disent les études scientifiques vs ce qu'on peut lire sur le web qui est assez anxiogène ?

🍦 Quelles sont les limites et critiques de la classification NOVA #ultraprocessed ?

La vidéo répond à pas mal de questions :
✅ la définition et comment reconnaître un aliment ultra-transformé d'un aliment transformé/frais
✅ une revue de la littérature sur la consommation et les relations santé des AUT
✅ l'intérêt et ce qu'on peut critiquer de cette approche
La vidéo est un peu plus longue mais je pense que trop simplifier le sujet donne "aliments ultra-transformés 🥯 = le mal" 💀

et c'est plus complexe... et qui ne fait pas consensus dans la recherche

N'hésitez pas à me faire des retours pour améliorer les futures vidéos 🙏😄
