Want to avoid Covid? Go VEGAN: Scientists claim plant-based diet may cut risk of catching virus by over a third amid spread of new Juno variant
Going vegan could cut your risk of catching Covid, if questionable new research is to be believed.
Experts discovered vegetarians and people on a plant-based diet were 39 per cent less likely to get infected than meat-eaters.
Brazilian researchers said this was likely down to high fruit and veg intake boosting the immune system, helping bat off viral infections.
However, the paper was merely observational and cannot prove anything about who is most susceptible to the illness.
Academics acknowledged that meat eaters in the study were more likely to exercise less and have illnesses like cardiovascular disease and diabetes, suggesting they led unhealthier lifestyles.
