Why it's important to limit meat in your diet
Table of Contents
1. The nutritional value of different types of meat
According to statistical data, meat consumption fell by 2.3% in 2019. This may be due to the increasing availability of animal products substitutes. However, it should be remembered that meat is almost at the top of the food pyramid, so it should not be consumed in too large quantities. Other species such as lamb, lamb and rabbit meat are much less frequented on Polish tables.2. This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union
Poles consume more pork than inhabitants of the European Union. Pork is a better source of iron and B vitamins than poultry meat, which contains much less. According to data from the Central Statistical Office in 2019, the total meat consumption was 62.4 kg per person, of which pork accounted for more than 50%.3. It's beef
The amount of iron and B vitamins in beef is higher than in pork or poultry, which is why people with anemia should choose this type of meat. In addition, beef, like other types of meat, contains the coenzyme Q10, which has shown beneficial effects in the course of many diseases osteoarthritis, Parkinson's disease, hypertension, and also supports the body's immunity. Compared to the population of the European Union, Poles consume it less, mainly because of the price.4. It's a pig
It should be noted that in addition to biologically active substances such as CLA acid and coenzyme Q10, there are also ingredients that have adverse health effects in meat. Poultry is lean meat, contains a high amount of protein and a small amount of fat (of course, skinless poultry).5. The impact of meat consumption on human health
Protein demand varies depending on age, sex, physiological status or physical activity. However, meat is a valuable source of iron, especially for people with anemia (anemia) and most poultry. Protein also supplies other products legumes, dairy products, eggs, so it is important not to consume too much meat, as excess protein can promote osteoporosis and fatty acids. Meat is an important source of Iron, particularly for people who have anemia.6. The impact of meat consumption on the environment
Europe is the second continent in the world, where meat consumption has increased by 56%, with less water being used in animal husbandry than in plant farming. Reducing meat and milk consumption would help to combat climate change and feed more people around the world. A reduction in the consumption of animal products will already have a positive impact on the environment. The biggest change recorded in Asia Meat consumption has also increased by 416%.7. Is it really giving up meat to replace it?
It is important to know which plant substitutes contain all the essential amino acids (e.g. cereal noodles with vegetable sauce and soybeans) and to consume them in sufficient quantities to meet demand. Undoubtedly, the meat substituents that provide the necessary protein are also eggs, milk and dairy products. Combining pulp plants with cereal products will allow the body to supply all the necessary amino acides (e., cereal pasta with vegetables sauce, and soya beans). Undeniably, meat substitutions that supply the body with valuable protein are the same quantities as eggs and milk products. The combination of grapefruit and wheat products with wheat can increase the quantity of protein consumed by the body (especially grapes B12 and B12). Soybeans can be substituted for grapes such as soya bean, soya grapes, soybean extracts, or wheat extracts such as wheat, wheat and corn bran, such as the red, white, red, black, orange, and red, whether they are extracted from the grapes of the plant.8. Benefits of a meat-free diet
Reducing or eliminating meat consumption reduces the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. A well-balanced vegetarian diet improves quality of life. It is the result of eating less saturated fat and cholesterol and more fiber, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins C and E. Vegetarians are less exposed to overweight and obesity, have normal blood pressure and low total cholesterol and LDL fractions.9. Oatmeal with apples and nuts
Vegetarian version Ingredients: oatmeal (1⁄2 cup), cow's milk (glass), apple (cup), nuts (spoon), spices: cinnamon. Add cut apple, nuts and cinnamon to the vegetable version.10. Spaghetti with tomato sauce and lentils
How to prepare the macaroni and yogurt is to be cooked separately in a slightly salted glass of soybean or coconut water. It is recommended that you add a carrot to your daily diet and soak it for about 510 minutes. Pour the whole into the starter cheese or yeast flakes. Cow's milk and natural yogurt can be substituted with a vegetable equivalent, i.e. vegetable drinks such as rice, or a glass of soya or cocoa yogurt. The daily diet should include more vegetable products not only for health reasons but also for the sake of the environment.
