Contribute to nutrition science: participate in the largest-ever study on trying out a plant-based diet

I work with the Alliance, an online collective action group. We've partnered with researchers at Stanford University to run what we hope will be the world's largest study on shifting toward a plant-based diet. We're looking for 1,000+ participants.

Sign up here by June 1: plantbasedstudy.org. The study will last 2 weeks. During the study, you'll try to reduce your animal product consumption as much as is feasible for you. You do not need to 100% eliminate animal product consumption.

From a research perspective, we want to understand what makes plant-based eating easy or hard for everyday people, especially people who previously did not have a strong prior intention to change their diets.

By participating, you would be enabling a potentially significant paper in what is currently a very small field. As far as we know, there are very few large-scale behavioral studies that address the experience of adopting a plant-based diet. With the results, we plan to develop and broadly publish recommendations that could encourage many people to adopt healthier and more environmentally-friendly diets.

Thanks, and please let me know if you have any questions.

Participate in the largest-ever study on trying out a plant-based diet (omnivores 18+)

Plant-based diets use roughly 75% fewer resources (land, water, greenhouse gases) than comparable meat-based ones. If we can pull off this study, we'll contribute significantly to what is currently a very small field on plant-based nutrition.
