Mervyn Hardinge, MD did isocaloric studies at an ivy league school
and found that after 3 months which each group having the same daily
calories, the nonvegetarians weighed the most, 12 lbs. more than
vegetarians and 23 lbs more than vegans. Fruitarians not in the study
weighed less than anyone else.

can you post a link to the study?

That isn't necessarily a good thing, considering the shocking number of people on this site alone that starve themselves, thinking that's how vegans eat.

i agree krista, totally and completely... :)

The groups were isocaloric. However, we'd need to know more about the methodology to assess the study.
