Abstract

The number of people in Australia who follow vegetarian or plant-based diets is growing rapidly. People might choose to be vegetarian for ethical, cultural or health-related reasons. While not all vegetarians are necessarily following a healthy diet, research shows vegetarianism can have many benefits for health. One we're learning more about is its potential to strengthen our immune systems.
