Proteins: animal vs. vegetable

Animal products (meat, egg products, etc.), particularly proteins, are known to have important nutritional and functional properties. Current consumer trends, including environmental concerns, are leading to a shift in consumer expectations towards more plant-based products. The aim of this in-depth module is to present animal resources and their functionality, and to evaluate substitution by plant or other resources from a nutritional, functional or environmental point of view.
