due to diet
 No differences between vegetarians and nonvegetarians for lung,
breast, uterine, or stomach cancer; nonvegetarians do have

increased risk for prostate and colorectal cancer
 Vegetarians have higher fiber intake; higher intake of

phytochemicals and isoflavones that have anticancer effects

and Svenson. Cancer Manag Res. 2011
Diabetes:
 Diets that are more plant-based reduce risk of type II
diabetes
 Lower Body Mass Index (BMI) of vegetarians and higher fiber
intake improve insulin sensitivity
David JA Jenkins., et al. Type 2 diabetes and the vegetarian

diet. Am J Clin Nutr September 2003
Obesity:
 Lower Body Mass Index (BMI)
 Mean BMI highest in meat eaters and lowest in vegans
 Vegetarians consume lower animal fat, higher fiber, lower
alcohol, greater amounts of vegetables

Kidney Disease:
 High intake of dietary protein may worsen existing kidney
disease or increase risk in those susceptible
 Plant foods more beneficial effect on kidney function than
animal protein
Chronic Kidney Disease and Automatic Reporting of Estimated Glomerular

Filtration Rate: A Position Statement,. MJA 2005
Gallstones:
 Nonvegetarians more than 2x likely as vegetarians to suffer
from gallstones
Diverticular Disease:
 Vegetarians 50% as likely to have diverticulitis compared
with nonvegetarians
 Low fiber, high fat diets increase risk
 Meat intake may increase risk

5 layers of existence
