                                According to a frequently cited 2014 study by Faunalytics, a staggering 84% of vegetarians and vegans eventually abandon their diet. However, this statistic is often misunderstood and requires context, as it lumps together those with different levels of commitment and focuses on former adherents rather than current ones. The reality is more nuanced, but provides crucial insight into the challenges of maintaining a plant-based lifestyle.
