Did you order meat from a test tube on the menu?

Each of us has probably thought about the physical suffering of the animals we eat. These animals are not always kept in proper conditions that satisfy the five animal freedoms, which I wrote about earlier [1]. Plus, due to the increase in mad cow disease [4], people are afraid of the emergence of a massive pandemic of this disease in their population.

This fact forces some people to switch to vegetarian diets with additives, which at the very least replace the intake of the required amount of meat in food. However, such decisions limit their own free will in the choice of food. Of course, there are benefits from such diets. This also reduces the risk of inflammatory bowel disease [2], the risk of which increases when the consumption of animal protein is higher than normal. This lack of risk of gout [5], obesity, type 2 diabetes [18] and prostate cancer [3] and so on is amazing and miraculous.





The American Dietetic Association has even suggested that well-planned vegetarian diets, including all-vegetarian diets, are healthy, nutritionally adequate, and can provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases.

The purpose of any bioreactor is to create optimal conditions for the vital activity of cells and microorganisms cultivated in it, namely, to provide respiration, supply of food and removal of metabolites by uniform mixing of the gas and liquid components of the bioreactor contents.  In this case, it is undesirable to expose cells to thermal or mechanical stress [https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioreactor]
