Plant-Based Meat Alternatives Boom in Europe, Nutrition Varies
Original: Plant-Based Meat and Dairy Alternatives Boom, but Nutrition Varies Widely Across Europe
Sales of plant-based meat and dairy alternatives are growing rapidly across Europe, but a closer look shows their nutritional quality varies widely from product to product. Some alternatives offer comparable protein and added vitamins, while others are highly processed with more salt, sugar or fat than the animal products they replace. The findings prompt calls for clearer labelling and standards as consumers increasingly swap meat and dairy for plant-based options.
Why now: Growing consumer interest in plant-based diets is raising questions about whether these products are genuinely healthy alternatives.
