Vegetarian Diets: Cancer StudyA team from the Center of Cancer Research in Germany monitored almost 2,000 people aged between 10 and 70, who ate either no meat, or less than average between 1978 and 1999. Those studied were either vegans, who eat no meat, fish, eggs or dairy products, vegetarians, who eat eggs and dairy products but no meat or fish, and occasional meat eaters.
