Scientific Updates: Vegan Children; Bean Counting; and Gestational Diabetes

Posted on June 20, 2022 by The VRG Blog Editor

Each issue of Vegan Journal includes a Scientific Update column by Reed Mangels, PhD, RD. Here we review recent scientific papers related to vegetarianism. In the recent issue we reviewed a paper published on the German VeChi Diet Study on children age one to three years. We also covered a paper on legumes being used in more products in Australian markets. Finally, we reviewed a paper that looked at a study of individuals eating a healthy diet based on plant foods (which was not a vegetarian diet but a diet that is higher in plant foods) and whether or not it could affect the chances of developing gestational diabetes.
