PLANT-BASED FOODS: INNOVATION IN THE FOOD INDUSTRY
Abstract
The term "plant-based," coined in the 1980s, refers to a diet centered around plant-derived products with low fat and high fiber content, focused on health. These products are synonymous with items resembling conventional ones but made solely from plant ingredients. This article examines the growing trend of plant-based diets and their impact across various sectors such as the economy, health, environment, and the food industry. From exploring the origin of the term and reasons for its adoption, the study also delves into the market's growth, highlighting successful company case studies like Fazenda do Futuro while predicting trends. Additionally, it proposes discussing the environmental impact and health benefits associated with plant-based diets, as well as biotechnology innovations driving the development of these foods. The analysis includes the relationship between plant-based diets and veganism, clarifying their differences and similarities. Providing an overview of a topic gaining momentum and proving to be a global food trend, which is revolutionizing how processed foods are produced and consumed.
