Abstract in brief

  • A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials found that vegetarian diets significantly improve several cardiometabolic risk factors in individuals with diabetes, including HbA1c, fasting glucose, LDL cholesterol, body weight, BMI, and waist circumference.
  • The study analyzed data from nine trials with 664 participants and used rigorous methods to assess the quality and consistency of evidence, which was generally considered moderate.
  • However, vegetarian dietary patterns did not show significant effects on fasting insulin, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, or blood pressure in the analyzed studies.
