Plant-based alternative products may contain hidden dangers

Euroopas moodustavad veganid, taimetoitlased ja liha tarbimise vähendajad juba 13–42 protsenti elanikest. Sellepärast kasvab kiiresti.
2020. aastal müüdi maailmas 30 miljardi dollari eest. 2030. aastaks võib nende müük kasvada 162 miljardi dollarini. Taimsete piimaalternatiivide müük kasvab veel kiiremini.
Tootmine kasvab kiiresti, kuid meil ei ole piisavalt teavet nende toodete . Eesti teadlased teevad uuringut, et seda selgitada.
Uuringus analüüsitakse sadu Eestis müüdavaid alternatiivtoodeid. Tehakse tuhandeid . Seni on tulemused pigem head.
Ootamatult leiti palju . Mõned bakterid võivad teatud olukordades inimesi haigestada.
Lisaks leiti alternatiivtoodetest haiglate baktereid, mis on . See on murettekitav, sest need antibiootikumid kasutatakse raskete infektsioonide raviks.
Alternatiivtoodete . Selles võivad olla keemilised ohtud, nagu maloondialdehüüd, mis on .
Teatud alternatiivtooteid tuleb enne söömist kuumutada. Kuid liiga kuumutamine võib tekitada akrüülamiidi, mis on samuti potentsiaalselt ohtlik.
Tarbijatel tuleks . Lisaks tuleks jälgida säilimisaega ning .
See uuring alternatiivtoodete ohutuse ja kvaliteedi kohta.
In Europe, vegans, vegetarians, and meat reducers already make up 13–42% of the population. Therefore, the share of plant-based food is growing rapidly.
In 2020, plant-based alternative products were sold worldwide for $30 billion. By 2030, their sales could grow to $162 billion. The sales of plant-based milk alternatives are growing even faster.
Production is growing rapidly, but we do not have enough information about the quality and safety of these products. Estonian scientists are conducting a study to clarify this.
The study analyzes hundreds of alternative products sold in Estonia. Thousands of microbiological and chemical analyses are being performed. So far, the results are rather good.
Unexpectedly, many bacteria were found that have not previously been considered food hazards. Some bacteria can make people sick under certain conditions.
In addition, hospital bacteria resistant to antibiotics were found in alternative products. This is concerning because these antibiotics are used to treat severe infections.
The shelf life of alternative products may be too long. This could pose chemical hazards, such as malondialdehyde, which is potentially carcinogenic.
Certain alternative products should be heated before consumption. However, excessive heating can produce acrylamide, which is also potentially harmful.
Consumers should consume alternative products in moderation and diversify their diet. Additionally, they should monitor expiration dates and store food at the correct temperature.
This study provides consumers and producers with essential information about the safety and quality of alternative products.
