Cons: plant-based meats may be higher in sodium

A 2019 study nutritionally profiled plant-based products and compared them with their meat counterparts. The study took place in Australia and sampled plant-based products from supermarkets, including 50 burgers, 10 mince products, 29 sausages, 24 chicken products, nine seafood items, and 15 other meat substitutes.

To many people's surprise, only 4% of the plant-based meats were lower in sodium than their meat equivalents. And their salt content varied widely, some products may even contain up to 1,200 mg/100 g, or a total 3 grams of salt.
