A study by the British Medical Journal, the researchers observed 21,105 people and found that compared to meat-eaters, male vegetarians (vegans) weighed 5.9 kg less, and women vegans - 4.7 kg less. The researchers concluded: "These data show that a low degree of obesity is caused by a diet without meat."
