Resumo
The best sources of proteins for human nourishment come from animal origin. But, conventional meat production
involves not only animal suffering but, also, prodigious amounts of water use and significant global warming gases produced per
pound of meat. Sustainable plant proteins are good for human beings, as well as, for the planet. Specific natural resources like
pulses, in particular, represent a very environmentally friendly and sustainable food source and are rich of high-quality and
cost-effective protein ingredients. Ionizing radiation may contribute to food safety and food security. Also, irradiation could
serve as an additional food processing method for inactivation or removal of certain antinutritional factors. In this work, the
benefits of plant protein sources, particularly pulse protein foods, are highlighted. Moreover, a survey on database since 1970,
about the relation among pulses, plant protein and ionizing radiation has been presented. Highlights: Pulses represent a very
environmentally friendly and sustainable food source. Pulses are rich sources of high quality and cost effective protein
ingredients. Ionizing radiation may contribute to food safety and food security and it could be applied for inactivation or removal
of certain antinutritional factors.
