While there is potential for diets with low or no animal source foods (ASF) to be healthy, this is not necessarily the case. Emerging adults may be at the forefront of a social movement away from ASF in the UK. This age group also have generally poor diets. Modern day plant\u2010based diets, particularly those followed by younger people, may include more convenience foods and less fruit and vegetables than traditional plant\u2010based diets. This study aims to examine whether young people following plant\u2010based diets consume higher or lower quality diets than young people who consume ASF (omnivores).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted secondary analysis of a cross\u2010sectional online survey of a nationally representative sample of UK university students, completed in February 2022, to explore some indicators of diet quality in students following plant\u2010based diets compared with omnivores. We conducted univariable and multivariable analyses (adjusted for age group, gender, ethnicity, income and parental socio\u2010economic group) to examine the associations between specific diets and diet indicators (fruit and vegetable intake, frequency of consumption of specific foods high in fat, sugar and\/or salt, and frequency of cooking from scratch).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of 2921 student participants, 1468 (50.3%) reported themselves as omnivores, 511 (17.5%) mainly vegetarian, 208 (7.1%) pescatarian, 290 (9.9%) vegetarian, and 149 (5.1%) vegan. The remainder indicated another dietary pattern or did not respond. Demographics and socio\u2010economic status varied significantly across diet groups. In fully adjusted models, all plant\u2010based diets had higher fruit and vegetable consumption than omnivores, up to 1.41 (95% CI 1.04\u20131.78) additional portions of fruit in pescatarians and 0.92 (0.50\u20131.34) additional portions of vegetables in vegans. Vegetarians and \u2018mainly vegetarians' had higher odds of frequently cooking from scratch than omnivores. \u2018Mainly vegetarians' were less likely than omnivores to frequently consume processed meat. Frequent consumption of other foods high in fat, sugar and\/or salt was not significantly different in any of the plant\u2010based diets compared with omnivore diets.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Students following plant\u2010based diets have higher quality diets by some indices than omnivore students.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jhn.70246","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,15]],"date-time":"2026-04-15T03:26:33Z","timestamp":1776223593000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Exploring the Dietary Behaviour of Students Who Limit Their Intake of Animal\u2010Source Foods: Secondary Analysis of a Nationally Representative Undergraduate Student Survey"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"39","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0925-9839","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Oyinlola","family":"Oyebode","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Wolfson Institute of Population Health Queen Mary University of London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniel","family":"Mensah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Warwick Medical School University of Warwick Coventry UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","unstructured":"Plant\u2010based diets and their impact on health sustainability and the environment: a review of the evidence [Internet].
