Private chef Rachel Muse, who creates bespoke meals for elite athletes, including top footballers, agrees and gives the simple tip that adding “pea powder is a really easy way to up the amount of protein in lots of different meals including sauces, soups and even vegan wellingtons”.

But politics and ethics aside, there is a high cost to abortion bans in the United States. Each year, anti-abortion legislation costs American taxpayers billions of dollars due to costs associated with unplanned and unwanted pregnancies, complications from unsafe abortions, and legal challenges that taxpayers must cover. The recent wave of abortion bans might also cost states in business investment. According to the Guttmacher Institute, a research institution on sexual and reproductive health, unintended pregnancies cost the U.S. over $20 billion a year in 2010 (according to the study, an unintended pregnancy is one that is either unwanted or wanted, but at a later date). Those costs include births, abortions, and miscarriages. “That amounts to 51% of the $40.8 billion spent for all publicly funded pregnancies that year,” the study said.
