Modeled healthy eating patterns are largely constrained by currently estimated requirements for bioavailable iron and zinc-a diet optimization study in French adults

Alison Dussiot et al.

Summary: The currently estimated requirements for bioavailable iron and zinc are critical factors in modeling healthy dietary patterns. Considering lower reference values allows for the identification of diets that are apparently healthier overall.

The potential effects of meat substitution on diet quality could be high if meat substitutes are optimized for nutritional composition-a modeling study in French adults (INCA3)

Marion Salome et al.

Summary: This study aimed to identify and characterize the optimal composition of a meat substitute that would improve diet quality. The results showed that the optimal substitute could compensate for the reduction in certain nutrients provided by meat while providing key nutrients that are currently insufficiently consumed.

Plant-based meat analogues: from niche to mainstream

Fatma Boukid

Summary: Meat analogues are gaining popularity as consumers seek healthier and more environmentally-friendly alternatives. The challenges for the industry include market growth, formulation, and improving processing techniques to meet consumer demand for sustainable, nutritious, and clean label ingredients. In the future, companies will focus on enhancing taste and healthiness, reducing prices, and increasing convenience to mimic the meat experience.

Substituting Meat or Dairy Products with Plant-Based Substitutes Has Small and Heterogeneous Effects on Diet Quality and Nutrient Security: A Simulation Study in French Adults (INCA3)

Marion Salome et al.

Summary: This study assessed the effects of plant-based substitutes on diet quality, finding that soy-based substitutes slightly improved diet quality while cereal-based substitutes decreased it. Substitutes led to better intake of fiber, linoleic acid, vitamin E, but lower intake of vitamin B-12 when replacing meat.

The shift to plant-based diets: are we missing the point?

Kremlin Wickramasinghe et al.

Summary: There is growing agreement that reducing meat and dairy consumption can help lessen environmental impact, but the market for plant-based substitutes is rapidly expanding. However, there are significant gaps in knowledge regarding the nutritional composition of these substitutes and their prevalence in modern diets across various countries in the WHO European Region. Additionally, many dietary models do not accurately reflect real-life dietary patterns.

Food systems are responsible for a third of global anthropogenic GHG emissions

M. Crippa et al.

Summary: Data on GHG emissions from the global food system are often scattered and unavailable, but EDGAR-FOOD provides a consistent database from 1990 to 2015. The largest contributions to food-system emissions come from agriculture and supply chain activities, representing 34% of total global GHG emissions.

Ultraprocessed food and chronic noncommunicable diseases: A systematic review and meta-analysis of 43 observational studies

Melissa M. Lane et al.

Summary: This study found that consumption of ultraprocessed foods is associated with risks of overweight, obesity, abdominal obesity, all-cause mortality, depression, and wheezing, as well as cardiometabolic diseases, frailty, and cancer in adults. Further research is needed to define the associations between ultraprocessed food consumption and health outcomes in children and adolescents.
