Raw food vegans thin, but healthy
Raw food is not my thing, but this unique culinary lifestyle appears to be working for some vegans.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) — People on strict raw food vegetarian diets are thin but healthy, U.S. researchers reported on Monday.
Although nutritionists and the food industry have warned that a diet without dairy foods can lead to the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis, the team at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found the vegans they studied had many of the signs of strong bones.
Dr. Luigi Fontana, who led the study, said they had thin bones but none of the other signs of osteoporosis.
“We think it’s possible these people don’t have increased risk of fracture but that their low bone mass is related to the fact that they are lighter because they take in fewer calories,” Fontana said in a statement.
He said he would continue to follow them to see if they develop osteoporosis later.
