Study: 100% adoption of plant-based diets could save the NHS £6.7 billion a year

A new study by the Office of Health Economics shows that with 100% adoption of plant-based diets in England, the total health care cost savings for the NHS could be around £6.7 billion. Using an economic model-based analysis, authors Nadine Henderson and Chris Sampson combined estimates for the prevalence of diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, which they predict would be greatly reduced with a complete uptake of plant-based diets. They also modelled different levels of uptake in the population.
