It has the highest content of protein in plantbased meat replacements (close and above than real meat) but is usually low in the amino acid lysine, opposed to soy-based replacement which contain all 9 essential amino acids in sufficient amounts.

My aunt had helicobacter for years. Not a joke.
Apart from that we got lovely H5N1 which has an easy game on poultry farms on animals with weakened immune systems and is bound to break out or mutate if not the whole flock is culled. It’s killed people and some virus could emerge when human and avian flu viruses join forces. It’s ravaging in non-avian wildlife and even a polar-bear currently. All this screams next novel pandemic.
And stuff like this that sure will effect human health in some way. Those behaviours are deliberate. It’s a ruthless industry.
