Book Description
Future Proteins: Sources, Processing, Applications and the Bioeconomy presents sources of alternative proteins and the novel processing technologies associated with these new proteins, including their vast food and non-food applications and their contributions to the circular economy that ties them together. Broken into three sections, chapters focus on alternative proteins including cereals, legumes and pulses, fungi, seafoods, insects, and others before assessing novel production technologies and alternative protein applications. Through the use of content features, specifically definitions, case studies, recent developments, data, and methods, this reference assists readers in understanding how to apply current knowledge and techniques to their research. This book is intended for any stakeholders involved in the alternative protein industry as it provides a clear and comprehensive review of the industry. It will be of interest to food scientists, technologists, food industry personnel, academics and graduate students researching this and related topics. - Discusses the various industrial applications of the proposed proteins, from powdered algal for the nutraceuticals market to insect pastas and bacterial-protein flour - Provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances on the identification of potentially important compounds in these alternative proteins - Outlines advances in proteins characterization, processing and purification techniques - Focuses on biologically active proteins and their beneficial impact on humans - Addresses implications for legislation that forward novel foods

Our Future Proteins
Author: Stacy Pyett

ISBN: 9789086598830
Category : Proteins
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Protein is an essential macronutrient and, at the same time, many protein-rich foods are major contributors to the environmental burdens of food production. The aim of the book Our Future Proteins is to present a broad set of perspectives on the protein transition and to contribute to the dialogue between those perspectives. In this book, the authors debunk common myths about the protein transition and examine conflicting narratives that hinder progress towards an equitable protein transition.The new book discusses the potential for sustainable food systems and their impact on global well-being, comparing and contrasting protein sources, technology development routes, and social and policy intervention strategies. A key question is the extent to which the current global efforts in this area are helping to prevent a global food crisis. Data on both the amount of protein being consumed and the environmental impact of protein consumption shows a clear disbalance between high-income and low and middle-income countries. While high-income countries tend to overconsume protein-rich foods, low and middle-income countries tend to have more scarcity of protein-rich foods and the important nutrients that accompany them. This underlines the need for a just transition that also addresses the fair distribution of resources.

Languages : en
Pages : 717
Book Description
Sustainable Protein Sources: Advances for a Healthier Tomorrow, Second Edition explores alternative proteins, including plant, fungal, algal and insect proteins that can take the place of meat as sustainable sources to satisfy human protein needs. This revised edition presents the benefits of plant and alternative protein consumption, including those that benefit the environment, population, and consumer trends and contains new chapters on potato protein, faba bean, chickpea, and coconut. Organized by protein, chapters also cover cereals and legumes, oilseeds, pseudocereals, fungi, algae, insects and fermentation-derived dairy and meat proteins paying particular attention to the nutrition, uses, functions, benefits, and challenges of each. The book also explores ways to improve utilization and addresses everything from consumer acceptability, methods of improving the taste of products containing these proteins and ways in which policies can affect the use of alternate proteins. In addition, the book addresses sustainable protein as a pathway to securing the food supply and considers regenerative versus extractive agriculture alongside new methods in farming and water usage. - Introduces the need to shift from animal-derived to plant-based protein and fermentation derived proteins - Discusses nutritive values of each protein source and compares each alternate protein to more complete proteins - Provides an overview of production, including processing, protein isolation, use cases and functionality
