Abstract in brief

This study analyzed data from 13 cohort studies involving over 844,000 participants to compare the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), ischemic heart disease (IHD), and stroke between vegetarians/vegans and nonvegetarians, finding that vegetarian diets are linked to a reduced risk of CVD and IHD.
The meta-analysis showed that vegetarians have about an 8.5% lower risk of overall CVD and a 9% lower risk of IHD compared to nonvegetarians, with vegan diets showing similar protective effects; however, the association between vegetarian diets and stroke was less clear.
The evidence suggests that the protective link between vegetarian diets and CVD/IHD is probably causal, but further research is needed to clarify effects on stroke, and these findings could influence future dietary guidelines.

@skepcard @ScepticalDoctor @Selkrish98 @VeganHeartDoc @DavidLBrownMD @gAlecsyBrain @lipo_fan Agreed outcome data for certain diary and fish look good. Equally however outcome data for vegan diets looks good. Difficult to compare healthy pescetarian to healthy vegan. If both high quality I doubt we would see a significant difference.
