Welcome to Tim Van Orden's Running Raw Project. In this episode: Tim shares a new study that just came out in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition that looks at vegetarian diets and their affect on heart disease. 

This study (known as the EPIC study), conducted by scientists at Oxford University in England, looked at the diets of nearly 45,000 people - 34% of which were vegetarian - and compared heart disease risk as well as other markers of health. 

What they found was that the vegetarians had 32% less risk of heart disease than did their non-vegetarian counterparts in the study.

The study can be found here: http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/early/2013/01/30/ajcn.112.044073.abstract?sid=06d590b1-1a92-4906-8e23-5de4baefa433
