Protein is a fundamental macronutrient in the human diet. It supplies our organisms with essential amino acids, which are needed for growth and maintenance of cells tissues. Conventional protein sources, despite their complete acid profiles excellent digestibility, have proven negative impact on environment. Furthermore, production poses many ethical challenges. This review aims to present nutritional, more ethical, environmentally friendly alternatives that could serve as potential sources population. The available literature alternative has been analyzed. Based research conducted, various products identified described, including plant-based such soybeans, peas, faba beans, lupins, hemp seeds; aquatic algae, microalgae, water lentils; well insect-based microbial cell-cultured meat. Despite numerous advantages, lower environmental impact, higher standards production, beneficial nutritional profiles, not without limitations. These include bioavailability certain presence antinutritional compounds, technological challenges, issues related consumer acceptance. Nevertheless, proper dietary composition, optimization processes, further advancements, presented can constitute valuable sustainable growing global

Background/Objectives: Analyzing the carbon footprint of diets in various populations is important as it can help identify more sustainable food choices that reduce overall impact human activities on ongoing warming global climate. This pilot exploratory study analyzed (measured kg CO2 equivalent, eq.) using diaries collected from Polish individuals with varying levels animal-derived product exclusion their diets. Methods: The employed a diary method, where participants four dietary groups (vegan, vegetarian, fish-eater, and meat-eater) recorded all meals beverages consumed over 7-day period, including portion sizes packaging details. These were then to assess adherence calculate footprints, utilizing standardized equivalent emission data publicly available databases. Results: analysis revealed decreasing trend corresponding degree elimination products diet (R2 = 0.96, p 0.0217). mean daily vegan group was 1.38 eq., which significantly lower than vegetarian (2.45), fish-eater (2.72), meat-eater (3.62). For each 1000 kcal, generated 39.7, 58.3, 93.9% eq. case fish-eaters, vegetarians, vegans, respectively. Over week, 10 vegans had total meat-eaters by 42.9, 52.2, 61.8%, Hard mozzarella cheese highest contribution fish, seafood poultry, pork, beef meat-eaters. Conclusions: Dietary footprints vary considerably pattern, consumption associated emissions. Additionally, identifying specific high-impact items within may inform strategies for reducing environmental across eating patterns.
