Bacteria can make plant-based foods healthier for humans and animals
New research from the DTU National Food Institute and Aarhus University shows that microorganisms can be used to specifically alter the amino acid composition of plant-based foods, making them more nutritious and therefore healthier.
AI Summary
Researchers at the DTU National Food Institute and Aarhus University have shown that certain microorganisms can be used to change the amino acid profile of plant‑based foods. By applying these microbes, the amino acid composition can be shifted to increase nutritional value. The technique allows the same quantity of plant material to yield more nutrients, potentially improving the health benefits of both human foods and animal feed.
