Background Little is known regarding the health effects of a raw food (RF) vegetarian diet.
Conclusion A Raw food vegetarian diet is associated with low bone mass at clinically important skeletal regions but is without evidence of increased bone turnover or impaired vitamin D status.


2. Effect of vegetarian diets on bone mineral density: a Bayesian meta-analysis Lan T Ho-Pham, Nguyen D Nguyen and Tuan V Nguyen

Background: The association between vegetarian diets and bone mineral density (BMD) is controversial because of conflicting findings from previous studies

Conclusion: The results suggest that vegetarian diets, particularly vegan diets, are associated with lower BMD, but the magnitude of the association is clinically insignificant.
