Plant-based alternatives are highly processed.
Lab-grown red meat alternative products manufactured from plants are highly processed.
Plant based meat alternatives are made from a combination of protein isolates, concentrates, flour, fungi, oils, salt, spices, seasonings and other plant derivatives including starches and common food additives. Not all plant-based alternatives are nutrient fortified with iron, zince and vitamin B12 and they are not nutritionally equivalent to red meat.
