position of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics on vegan nutrition
“ABSTRACT
It is the position of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that appropriately planned
vegetarian, including vegan, diets are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide
health benefits for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. These diets are
appropriate for all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy,
childhood, adolescence, older adulthood, and for athletes. Plant-based diets are more
environmentally sustainable than diets rich in animal products because they use fewer
natural resources and are associated with much less environmental damage. Vegetarians and vegans are at reduced risk of certain health conditions, including ischemic
heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, certain types of cancer, and obesity. Low
intake of saturated fat and high intakes of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, soy
products, nuts, and seeds (all rich in fiber and phytochemicals) are characteristics of
vegetarian and vegan diets that produce lower total and low-density lipoprotein
cholesterol levels and better serum glucose control. These factors contribute to reduction of chronic disease. Vegans need reliable sources of vitamin B-12, such as fortified
foods or supplements.

Plant-Based Diets Linked to Less Severe Illness from COVID-19
Plant-based diets are linked to less severe illness from COVID-19, according to a study published in BMJ Nutrition, Prevention & Health. Researchers surveyed health care workers with high exposure to COVID-19 patients across six countries on their dietary habits and COVID-19 outcomes. Participants who followed plant-based diets had a 73% lower chance of moderate to severe COVID-19 illness, whereas those who followed low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets were 48% more likely to have moderate to severe COVID-19 illness. Those who followed plant-based diets had higher intakes of legumes, nuts, and vegetables rich in fiber and vitamins A, C, and E that support the immune system and overall health. The authors recommend a plant-based diet that avoids pro-inflammatory foods such as red and processed meat associated with negative health outcomes to help protect against severe COVID-19.

Boost Fruits and Vegetables, Cut Meat for COVID-19
Diet is at the root of conditions linked to severe COVID-19 outcomes and holds the potential for improving those outcomes as well, according to a new editorial by the editor-in-chief for The British Medical Journal. Obesity is linked to such diseases as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer and is now considered a key risk factor for COVID-19. To reduce the rates of obesity, the author suggests consuming more fruits, vegetables, beans, and whole grains and less red meat and processed foods to help curtail the effects of the virus and its second wave. Specifically, she highlights “the meat industry as a driver for acute and chronic disease.”

Low-Carbohydrate Diets Increase Risk for Heart Disorder
Low-carbohydrate diets increase the risk for atrial fibrillation (AFib), a common disorder of heart rhythm, according to a poster presented at the American College of Cardiology’s 68th Annual Scientific Session. Researchers tracked daily carbohydrate intake in 14,000 diet records from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study and monitored incidences of heart arrhythmias. Those who consumed the least amount of carbohydrate increased the chance of developing AFib by 18 percent, compared with those who consumed the most carbohydrate. AFib is associated with a five-fold increased risk for stroke and may lead to heart failure. Carbohydrate restriction lowers intake of grains, fruits, and vegetables linked to reduced inflammation and may increase consumption of high-fat, high-protein foods associated with oxidative stress.

ARE VEGANS MORE VULNERABLE TO HIP FRACTURES?
Vegan Diets Do Not Increase Risk for Hip Fractures With Calcium and Vitamin D Supplements
Vegan diets do not increase the risk for hip fractures when combined with calcium and vitamin D supplementation, according to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Researchers compared different dietary patterns with hip fracture incidence rates in 34,542 participants from the Adventist Health Study 2. While women who followed vegan diets did have an increased risk for factures, further analysis showed women on a vegan diet who took both calcium and vitamin D supplements did not have a greater risk of fractures when compared to nonvegetarian women. Results showed no increased risk for fractures among men on a vegan diet without supplementation. The authors call for further research into the impact of a vegan diet with calcium and vitamin D supplementation on fracture risk.

GENERAL BENEFITS OF PLANT-BASED NUTRITION
Experts Recommend Dietary Guidelines Exclude Red and Processed Meat
Experts from Harvard University recommend that dietary guidelines exclude red and processed meat in favor of plant-based foods for the benefit of human health and the environment, according to a publication from the American Diabetes Association. The authors examined the methodologies behind recent dietary recommendations from the Nutritional Recommendations (NutriRECS) consortium, which called for no reductions in red and processed meat intake, and found several limitations, inadequacies, and misinterpretations of data. Researchers reassessed the health impacts of these foods with more appropriate rubrics and found close associations between red and processed meat consumption and diabetes and increased mortality. Results also showed replacing red meat with plant-based protein sources improved cholesterol levels and other health outcomes. The authors suggest that dietary guidelines that emphasize vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and legumes and limit red and processed meat best promote human and environmental health.

Seventh-Day Adventists Have Lower Risk of Cancer and Death
Seventh-Day Adventists, who often follow a plant-based diet, have a lower risk of cancer and death from any cause, according to research published in the journal Cancer. Researchers compared all-cause mortality and cancer incidence rates from Adventist Health Study 2 (AHS-2) participants and the general U.S. population documented in census data. Early death and cancer incidence rates were lower in the AHS-2 population by 33 and 30 percent, respectively, when compared to those in the general population. Early death and cancer incidence rates were lower among black AHS-2 participants by 36 and 22 percent, respectively, compared with blacks in the census data. The authors attribute lower cancer risk, increased quality of life in later years, and benefits to other health outcomes in the AHS-2 group to lifestyle habits, including nonsmoking, exercise, and reduced consumption of meat and suggest these results may transfer to the general U.S. population by adopting similar habits.

Vegan Diets Reduce the Risk for Chronic Disease
People following vegan diets are less likely to develop chronic diseases, compared with other dietary groups, according to a study funded by the NIH/National Cancer Institute. Researchers analyzed the diets of those following vegan, lacto-ovo-vegetarian, semi-vegetarian, pesco-vegetarian, and non-vegetarian eating patterns and tracked several health biomarkers. Based on those biomarkers, the vegan group had the lowest risk for cancer, heart disease, and hypertension, compared with the other groups. The vegan group also had higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids and higher serum levels of carotenoids and isoflavones associated with lower inflammation. Vegans consumed the most fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes and had the highest intakes of beta-carotene and fiber and the lowest intakes of saturated fatty acids. The vegan group was the only group to be in a healthy weight range, while all other groups were overweight, on average. These findings offer more insight into the relationship between diet-related biomarkers and disease and support vegan diets as a healthful approach to disease prevention.

Plant-Based Diets Promote Healthy Gut Microbiome
High-fiber vegan diets promote healthful and stable gut bacteria, according to a review published in Frontiers in Nutrition. Increased intake of fiber and other plant components associated with plant-based diets increase the growth of beneficial bacteria that reduce inflammation and cardiovascular disease risk. Fiber also increases short-chain fatty acids linked to improved immunity and improved intestinal function. These conclusions indicate that diet contributes to healthful microbiome diversity more than any other factor, and a plant-based diet is the most effective means to ensure optimal gut health.

Plant-Based Diets Help Prevent Asthma
Plant-based diets help prevent and treat asthma, according to a review published in Nutrition in Clinical Care. Researchers from the Physicians Committee examined the evidence related to asthma and dietary factors among adults and children. The prevalence of asthma rose over the years as high-fat, Westernized diets increased in popularity. Diets that emphasize fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes and minimize saturated fat reduce the risk for asthma and may improve asthma control. The authors note the positive effects from consuming plant-based diets rich in antioxidants and fiber on factors including inflammation, oxidation, and gut microbiota as possible mechanisms. Dairy consumption was found to increase the risk for asthma and to worsen symptoms in asthma patients. Additional dietary interventions would further highlight the role of nutrition in prevention and treatment.

HEART DISEASE
Lifestyle Modifications Effective for Heart Failure Treatment and Prevention
Lifestyle modifications, including diet changes, help treat and prevent heart failure, according to a new report published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Several researchers analyzed how lifestyle, such as weight management and nutrition, influences heart failure risk. Poor diet, minimal exercise, and stress all contribute to increased risk for heart failure, while more exercise, stress management, and plant-based eating proved most effective for reduced risk for heart failure. Clinicians should incorporate nutrition and exercise education into clinical practice to prevent and treat heart failure.

Replacing Red Meat with Plant Protein Lowers Risk for Heart Disease
Replacing red meat with plant-based protein sources lowers your risk for heart disease, according to a meta-analysis published in Circulation. Researchers reviewed studies that compared diets that included red meat with eating habits that replaced red meat with foods such as legumes and tracked cardiovascular disease risk factors. Plant-based protein sources in place of red meat produced improvements in blood lipids. Replacing red meat with fish did not reduce the risk for heart disease. The authors noted that reduced intakes of saturated fat and cholesterol and increased intakes of fiber and antioxidants found in plants may be possible mechanisms for the improvements.
DAIRY
Dairy Consumption Increases Risk for Cancer
Dairy consumption increases the risk for cancer, according to a study published in BMC Medicine. Researchers compared dairy consumption and cancer risk for over half a million participants in China for 11 years. For every 50 grams (less than a 1/4 cup) of milk and other dairy products consumed per day, overall, liver, and female breast cancer risk increased by 7%, 12%, and 17%, respectively. As more people in China drink milk regularly, intake of saturated fat and hormones associated with cancer development also increase.

Egg Consumption Increases Risk for Diabetes
Consuming one or more eggs per day may increase the risk of diabetes by 60%, according to a study published in the British Journal of Nutrition. Researchers compared egg consumption with blood glucose levels in more than 8,000 participants from the China Health and Nutrition Survey. Those who habitually consumed the most eggs increased their risk for diabetes when compared to those who ate the fewest eggs. Participants who ate the most eggs were less physically active, consumed more fat and animal protein, and had higher serum cholesterol levels. Possible mechanisms for the increased risk include oxidation and inflammation from choline found in egg yolks and hindered carbohydrate absorption from chemicals found in egg whites. The authors suggest the rise in egg consumption is related to the increased affordability of eggs in China and an overall shift toward Westernized diets low in vegetables and high in meat and high-fat foods.
These results support similar findings in other cohorts of participants in China as well as populations in the United States. A study published in Nutrition found an increased risk for diabetes and high cholesterol among Chinese women, while research published in Circulation found a link between higher egg consumption and prevalence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. The authors note results from a recent meta-analysis and data from the Physicians’ Health Study and Women’s Health Study showed an increased risk for diabetes of up to 77% with seven or more eggs consumed per week.

Soy Products Lower Risk for Heart Disease
Isoflavones found in tofu and other soy products lower the risk for coronary heart disease, according to research published in Circulation. Researchers at Harvard analyzed diet records from the Nurses’ Health Study I and II for participants free of heart disease and tracked nonfatal myocardial infarction and mortality from heart disease. Higher intakes of tofu were associated with reduced risk of coronary heart disease by up to 18%, compared with lower intakes of tofu. These results were more pronounced in premenopausal women. Isoflavones may reduce the risk by binding to estrogen receptors to improve endothelial function and improve the microbiome. The authors conclude that soy products may be an effective dietary approach to coronary heart disease prevention.

Plant-Based Diets Improve Quality of Life in Type 2 Diabetes Patients
A plant-based diet improves psychological well-being in type 2 diabetes patients, according to a review published in BMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care. Researchers reviewed 11 controlled trials on dietary interventions for type 2 diabetes and found that plant-based diets improved well-being overall when compared to dietary interventions from various diabetes associations. Participants reported less pain and saw improvements in depression, weight, quality of life, cholesterol and HbA1c levels, and other health outcomes. Adherence was higher among the plant-based intervention groups, which also suggested higher acceptability, compared with control groups, demonstrating the potential effectiveness of plant-based diets as a clinical intervention for type 2 diabetes.

Plant-Based Diets Lower Risk for Gestational Diabetes
Adherence to a plant-based diet before pregnancy lowers the risk for gestational diabetes, according to data presented at the 80th American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions. Researchers followed almost 16,000 women from the Nurses’ Health Study II, who reported at least one pregnancy over 10 years, monitored adherence to a plant-based diet using various indices of healthfulness, and tracked diabetes incidence. Results showed a significant inverse association between plant-based diets and diabetes. The authors suspect a plant-based diet led to a lower pre-pregnancy BMI and reduced intake of red and processed meat, both of which are linked to a reduced risk for gestational diabetes.

HYPERTENSION (high blood pressure) REVERSAL
Vegan Diets Can Reduce High Blood Pressure to Healthy Levels in Just 2 Weeks, Says New Study
Flavanols Found in Fruit Help Lower Blood Pressure
A diet high in a phytonutrient group known as flavanols lowers blood pressure, according to a study published in Scientific Reports. Researchers compared flavanol intake with blood pressure and other heart disease biomarkers in more than 25,000 participants from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer (EPIC) Norfolk study. Those who consumed the highest amounts of flavanols from apples, berries, and other plant-based foods lowered their blood pressure more than those with the lowest intake. The results were comparable to therapeutic dietary interventions such as Mediterranean diets or reduced salt intake via the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet. Possible mechanisms for reduced blood pressure include positive effects of flavanol intake on heart function, arterial dilation, and inflammation. These results were strongest among participants with high blood pressure, suggesting small reductions in blood pressure could translate into lower heart disease risk and prevention.

Cancer
Healthful (note: “more plant foods and fewer animal products”) Diet Improves Cancer Survival in Colorectal Cancer Patients
A healthful diet increases cancer survival among those with colorectal cancer, according to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. Researchers compared dietary quality for several dietary approaches, including American Cancer Society guidelines and the DASH diet, with cancer mortality for 2,801 participants before and after cancer diagnoses. More healthful diets received higher scores. Results showed increased survival rates for those who ate more plant foods and fewer animal products. The authors suggest that dietary interventions effectively reduce cancer mortality despite a poor diet before diagnosis.

“Milk and yogurt consumption showed a significantly positive risk and a dose-response relationship adjusted for age, family history of prostate cancer, body mass index, and total energy intake, stratified by area. In summary, a high intake of dairy products such as milk increased the risk of developing prostate cancer in Japanese men.”

Plant-Based Diets Decrease Risk of Death From Prostate Cancer
Men who consume the most plant-based foods decrease their risk of dying from prostate cancer by 19%, according to an abstract published in The Journal of Urology. Researchers compared plant-based diet intake and prostate cancer incidence and mortality rates for 47,243 men as part of the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study. Adherence to a plant-based diet lowered the risk of death from cancer as well as risk for total and advanced cancer among younger men. These results show the efficacy of plant-based diets for cancer prevention and survival

Hepatitis E
Bacon and Cured Pork Increase Risk for Hepatitis E
Consumption of bacon, cured pork, and other pork products increase the risk for hepatitis E, according to data published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention journal Emerging Infectious Diseases. Researchers compared hepatitis E virus (HEV) RNA-positive blood samples with negative blood samples for risk factors for HEV infections. Results associated consumption of bacon, cured pork meats, and pigs’ livers with hepatitis infection. In those with positive results, 97.4% reported pork consumption. Donors who do not eat meat had no positive results. The authors note viral transmission can occur in both cooked and uncooked cured pork products with no known time or temperature of cooking these products to make them safe from the virus.

BRAIN
Satisfaction just after eating
Plant-Based Diets More Satisfying than Meat-Based Diets
Plant-based diets are more satisfying than omnivorous diets, according to a new study published in Clinical Nutrition. Researchers compared brain activity and satiety in participants who ate either a plant-based meal or a meal that included meat. When people consumed the meal with meat, they showed decreased secretion of a hormone that affects reward circuits in the brain. When they consumed the plant-based meal, they were more satisfied and had better blood flow in the regions of the brain associated with food intake.

Cognitive Function
Fruits and Vegetables Protect Against Cognitive Decline
Diets high in fruits, vegetables, pulses (beans, lentils, peas), and nuts protect against cognitive decline, according to a study published in The Journal of Nutrition, Health, & Aging. Researchers compared test scores in verbal fluency, a measure of cognitive decline, in participants in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) and tracked dietary intake, socioeconomic status, and other covariates. Those who consumed more than 0.5 servings of pulses/nuts and more than 3 servings of fruits/vegetables per day scored higher on the cognitive tests, compared with those who had less. The authors call for policies to address food access and obesity and hypertension risk to improve risk factors.

Eyesight
Poor Diet Linked to Vision Loss Among Elderly
A poor diet is linked to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of vision loss among the elderly, according to a study published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology. Researchers compared dietary intake of various foods to changes in retinal AMD lesions over an 18-year period. Those who followed diets high in red and processed meat, fried foods, and high-fat dairy products had a threefold increased incidence rate for late AMD when compared to those who followed healthier diets. These results suggest Western diets high in meat and dairy may be risk factors for AMD.
