🇺🇲 For most Americans, ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are a big part of their daily diets, but they have been linked with a host of diseases and health detriments. In that light, a new study has found that Americans would be willing to eat and pay more for UPFs if they carried nutritious ingredients with added health benefits. Ayana Bio, a spinoff from Ginkgo Bioworks, Inc. that makes high-value ingredients like lemon balm and echinacea from plant cell cultures, explored how consumers view ‘healthy foods’. It found that for 64% of Americans, healthier foods are more nutritious, rather than those that have fewer ‘harmful’ ingredients like fat, sugar and salt. And this is perhaps why Americans are open-minded in their attitude towards UPFs. About two-thirds (65%) would be open to incorporating UPFs if additional health or nutritional benefits were listed on-pack – this rises to 85% for parents with children under 18. In fact, 74% would be willing to try these products if they contained one of the following benefits: better cardiovascular function, improved brain function, better sleep, better immunity, or increased energy. Ingredient quality is also a big motivating factor, pushing 52% of adults and 62% of parents with under-18s to include UPFs in their diet. Meanwhile, 67% of respondents said they’d be willing to pay more for UPFs if they possessed more nutritious ingredients that delivered better health benefits, irrespective of their household income. Of these, 68% would pay up to $3 more for these products. Younger adults aged 18-34 are nearly twice as likely to pay more for healthier UPFs (84%) than those aged 65 and over (43%). #GreenQueen #health #nutrition #sustainability #futurefood #innovation #foodtech

Simple Diet Swaps Can Cut Carbon Emissions and Improve Your Health, Study Shows "This study shows that cutting dietary carbon emissions is accessible and doesn’t have to be a whole lifestyle change. It can be as simple as ordering a chicken burrito instead of a beef burrito when you go out to eat. When you’re at the grocery store, move your hand one foot over to grab soy or almond milk instead of cow’s milk. That one small change can have a significant impact... There is overlap between sustainable diets and healthy diets. Our study shows that changing just one ingredient, making one swap, can be a win-win, resulting in meaningful changes in both climate outcomes and how healthy our diets are..." https://lnkd.in/gpi5D_Be #emissions #carbonemissions #carbonreduction #diet #sustainability

Let's look into the fascinating realm of longevity and nutrition, with a focus on the Okinawan people, renowned for their impressive lifespan. The key to their extended years may lie in their unique dietary habits, providing us with valuable insights into healthy living. Picture this: the traditional Okinawan diet, where approximately 90 percent of their nutritional intake came from plants. Yes, you heard it right—plants dominated their plates. Now, contrast this with a mere 1 percent attributed to fish, and even less for meat, eggs, and dairy products. To put it into perspective, that's akin to indulging in a serving of meat once a month or savoring an egg every two months. What's striking is the negligible amount of cholesterol in their diet. The Okinawans practically embraced a cholesterol-free culinary journey. This dietary composition, characterized by a minuscule intake of animal products, challenges prevailing notions about protein requirements for sustained health. Remarkably, the Okinawans' longevity record stands tall, second only to a distinct group of individuals—the vegetarian Adventists in Loma Linda, California. This comparison invites us to ponder the role of plant-centric diets in promoting longevity and defying aging norms. As we dissect this nutritional mosaic, it beckons the question: Could the Okinawan approach be a blueprint for healthier, longer lives? Their minimalistic consumption of animal-derived products prompts us to reevaluate our dietary choices in a world increasingly enticed by protein-rich, animal-centric regimens. In essence, the Okinawan lifestyle extends beyond a statistical marvel—it's a testament to the potential benefits of embracing a predominantly plant-based diet. So, let us reflect on the lessons from the isle of longevity and consider the profound implications for our own nutritional choices. The journey toward a longer, healthier life might just be one plant-based meal away. #fredmarkham.com #fredmarkham #Longevity #OkinawanDiet #PlantBasedLiving #NutritionInsights #HealthyLifestyle #ScientificFindings #DietaryHabits #AgingWell #HealthResearch #AdventistLifestyle
