Vegetarian [vegan] diet and mental disorders: results from a representative community survey


Abstract

Background:
The present study investigated associations between vegetarian [vegan] diet and mental disorders.

Methods:
Participants were drawn from the representative sample of the German Health Interview and Examination Survey and its Mental Health Supplement (GHS-MHS). Completely vegetarian [vegan] (N = 54) and predominantly vegetarian (N = 190) participants were compared with non-vegetarian participants (N = 3872) and with a non-vegetarian socio-demographically matched subsample (N = 242).

Results:
Vegetarians [vegans] displayed elevated prevalence rates for depressive disorders, anxiety disorders and somatoform disorders. Due to the matching procedure, the findings cannot be explained by socio-demographic characteristics of vegetarians [vegans] (e.g. higher rates of females, predominant residency in urban areas, high proportion of singles).

Conclusions:
In Western cultures vegetarian [vegan] diet is associated with an elevated risk of mental disorders.
