I am working on a project and although I know what a difference vegetarianism

has made in my health and the health of my family, I was looking for a more

formalized study on vegetarian/ vegan diets.

 

The research that I have found thus far is full of anectodal information and

what I am looking for is quotable scientific data. Do any of you have a

resource that I can use? Please feel free to contact me off-list.

 

Thanks in advance!

The China Study by Joel Fuhrman, M.D. The book is somewhat controversial but it

has numerous scientific references, some of them would have the information you

are looking for. Good luck,

Try the above link: there are a number of studies cited here. Also, contact the

library of your closest hospital. They will probably be able to tell you of

works done by local MD's concerning vegetarianism as well as  any monographs in

their library.

 

I vaguely remember hearing somewhere that the liver of the vegetarian has a

different appearance in autopsy, but I don't have the source handy.

 

 

Hope this helps. Jeanne in GA

I just finished reading a book yesterday called Prevent and Reverse Heart

Disease by Caldwell Esseltyn, MD. It was pretty good, and some of the

recipes in there look really good too. I mainly checked it out for the

recipes, but found myself fascinated with the book itself. And he mentions

the China Study book listed below also.
