Plant-based "meat" not good for your health

Tweet

John Mackey, co-founder and CEO of the Whole Foods chain of grocery stores said recently that, although the new plant-based "meat" might be good for the environment but they are not good for your health because they are too highly processed. I'm no expert but it seems to me that the more processed a food is, the more nutritional value it will loose along the way. I remember enough college biochemistry to know that protein molecules, which contain many atoms in a long narrow molecular structure, are easily destroyed by heat or even shaking. If you want to be a vegetarian, great. I hope you enjoy it. But I'm sticking with meat.
