- Higher adherence to overall plant-based diets (PDI) is associated with lower all-cause, CVD, and other mortality among individuals with cardiometabolic disorders.
- Healthful plant-based diets (hPDI) are linked to 19-29% lower risks of all-cause, CVD, cancer, and other mortality, and longer life expectancy.
- Unhealthful plant-based diets (uPDI) are associated with 28-43% higher mortality risks and shorter life expectancy.
- Findings were consistent across cohorts from the UK, US, and China and across specific conditions like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.
