Abstract in brief

  • The systematic review analyzed the effects of vegan diets on cardiometabolic health over 12 weeks, focusing on individuals with overweight or type 2 diabetes.
  • Participants following vegan diets showed significant reductions in body weight (4.1 kg), BMI (1.38 kg/m²), glycated hemoglobin (0.18 points), total cholesterol (0.30 mmol/L), and LDL cholesterol (0.24 mmol/L) compared to control diets.
  • No significant impacts were noted on blood pressure, HDL cholesterol, or triglycerides, highlighting the need for further research on vegan diets' long-term effects on cardiometabolic health.
