- frmersdog 2y agoThat's incorrect. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1747-0080.12793 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1747-0080.12... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10305646/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10305646/ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-021-93100-3 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-021-93100-3 There's also an issue of lower fat/connective tissue content in plant-based meats (again, necessary to support joint and muscle recovery). Also, IIRC, the fats and oils in meat hold up better to high-temperature cooking than the ones in meat analogues. Best I can do is go pescatarian (which has its own issues at-scale).
