                                In a groundbreaking 2023 study from Stanford University, identical twins were placed on either a healthy vegan or a healthy omnivore diet for eight weeks, with the vegan group showing significantly greater improvements in cardiovascular health metrics like lower LDL cholesterol. This unique research setup, chronicled in the Netflix docuseries, controlled for genetic factors to isolate the impact of dietary changes on key health markers.
