The Best Substitutes Of Meat

The Best Substitutes Of Meat:

 “Are meat substitutes more healthful than meat?” Meat substitutes can be a healthful alternative to meat. People nowadays are starting to change their eating habits for a better planet. Producing meat is getting harder and harder each year and people are starting to look for new, healthy, and beneficial substitutes for meat. Thankfully, there have been found some products that can replace proteins and nutrients from meat, for example, Tofu, Tempeh, and Seitan.

Tofu is made of condensed milk that is compressed into little blocks, like cheese. Tofu has lots of proteins and it contains various essential acids that are necessary for the human being. People that have tried it claim that Tofu doesn’t really have a flavor, is pretty much tasteless, which is a good thing because you can basically make Tofu taste how you want. Some people say that Tofu is healthier than meat! 


Tempeh is a traditional Indonesian soybean that can be a great substitute for meat. Because it contains the whole bean, tempeh may also contain more fiber and protein than tofu. It also contains gut-friendly prebiotics and probiotics as a result of the fermentation process. Tempeh is usually used as a substitute for barbeque meat and can be eaten in salads and sandwiches. Tempeh has no cholesterol, and it's a good way to get B vitamins, fiber, iron, calcium, and other minerals.



Seitan comes from wheat gluten. They remove the starch from the wheat by rinsing it with water. This process makes a protein-dense food that has a similar taste and texture to chicken. The negative side about this food is that it has gluten, so people that have celiac disease, unfortunately, can’t eat it. 


To sum up, planning on changing your diet for a better future is something that everyone should start doing. We have to change! Trying to stop eating meat benefits the world and how we are going to evolve in the future for a better place to live in good conditions.

    I loved your blog!
    Stop eating meat seems like something super difficult to me since I consume a lot of quantity, but I like to obtain information about this and thus be able to become aware that it is not right for me to eat so much meat.
    I find it very interesting to know about the substitutes that meat has and thus begin to vary our diet and to resort more to this type of food.
