Vegan diets can help overweight people or those with type 2 diabetes shed kilos and lower blood sugar levels, according to a new study.

Experts presented evidence at the 2022 European Congress on Obesity in Maastricht, Netherlands, showing that adhering to a vegan diet for at least 12 weeks could boost weight loss and improve blood sugar control.
