You\u2019ve probably heard these two bits of nutrition advice: Eat more plants<\/a>, and cut back on ultraprocessed foods<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So where does that leave fake-meat burgers, sausages, nuggets and other products sold by companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods? They are made from plants like soybeans and peas, but they are also highly processed.<\/p>\n

If you ask the companies, they will tell you that their products are good for you<\/a>. Nutrition experts say that there may be benefits, too. But while it\u2019s clear that eating red meat and processed meat<\/a> is associated with health risks like heart disease, some types of cancer and earlier death, we really don\u2019t yet know how fake-meat alternatives might affect our health in the long term.<\/p>\n
