Abstract in brief

  • This review explores whether a strict vegan diet offers unique health benefits compared to vegetarian and omnivorous diets, with a focus on gut microbiota differences.
  • Studies suggest that vegans have a distinct gut microbiota characterized by fewer harmful bacteria and more protective species, which may help reduce inflammation and support better health.
  • While the vegan gut microbiota shows promising links to health benefits, it remains uncertain if adopting a vegan diet can sustainably and intentionally change gut bacteria for long-term health improvements.]

@CarnivoreSapien @saifedean Everything said on this tweet is false. 1. Vegans can be perfectly healthy, most of the times even more than omnivores. Here you have some studies talking about the health benefits of a vegan diet: https://t.co/Jhb27XfhWH https://t.co/HO37Yet3c7 https://t.co/InE9pgIsL2

@Marina_TMYM @peliredfem https://t.co/TpZZHImb6r https://t.co/jF8Y7VeAHm Etc Pero las dietas vegetarianas y veganas son malisismas porque "hay que comer de todo que somos omnívoros". Que aburrimiento. Comes carne porque te gusta. Punto. Asumelo plis.
