It’s the diet having a moment. Food brands, restaurants, meal-delivery kits, public schools, even presidential candidates are all talking plant-based foods. And now, a new survey from YouGov and WholeFoods Market finds that 63% of millennials are trying to incorporate plant-based foods into their diet.

Laura Wellesley from Chatham House explains how reducing meat consumption can affect climate change.

In what is likely the first study to look at how dietary preferences evolved across the animal kingdom, UA researchers looked at more than a million species, going back 800 million years. The team reports several unexpected discoveries, including that the first animal likely was a carnivore and that humans, along with other omnivores, belong to a rare breed.

An Australian couple, who fed their baby daughter a strict vegan diet resulting in severe malnourishment, have avoided jail time, according to CNN affiliate Seven News.

Go ahead, grill a burger. Going vegetarian can help our climate a little bit, but it's an inefficient policy to try to push on people worldwide.

A study of more than 12,000 people by Johns Hopkins University also found opting for vegetables over meat reduced their risk of dying early from any cause by a quarter.

New Zealand's dairy industry is arguing consumers are being misled if the term "milk" is used for plant-based products such as almond or coconut milk, but consumers are savvier than that.

How big business won and the consumer lost.

The time of day a person eats may help determine whether they can lose weight, new findings show. Fasting from time to time or eating earlier in the day may help people lower their body mass by reducing their appetite, according to research published Wednesday in Obesity. This meal timing strategy seems to be a more successful weight loss method than just burning calories, the researchers say.

That's the equivalent of about six standard Oreos. But this modest reduction in calories could have protective benefits for our hearts, a new study finds.

In a study in mice, researchers found that neurons that normally signal to the brain to stop eating are less active in obese animals.

You don't have to look hard to find someone who's off dairy: just about every wellness influencer seems to avoid it, and every friendship circle has at least one member (maybe it's you) who's experimented with giving it up. There are plenty of good reasons not to eat dairy: for health, either because of an allergy or intolerance; for environmental or ethical causes; or because you just don't like it. (I, for example, have never understood the temptation of a cheese plate. A hunk of brie, gouda, camembert, whatever — zero appeal. To some, this makes me a freak.)

Adolescents who see themselves as puny and who exercise to gain weight may be at risk of so-called muscularity-oriented disordered eating behaviors.

A low-carb diet may have benefits for people at risk of developing type 2 diabetes even if they don’t lose any weight, a new study suggests. Researchers at The Ohio State University wanted to know what happens to obese people with metabolic syndrome, a precursor to diabetes, when they eat a diet low in carbohydrates but don’t shed any pounds. They found that more than half of study participants no longer met the criteria for metabolic syndrome immediately following a four-week low-carb diet.

When you think of animal fat, what comes to mind? Unsightly blobs of cellulite? Artery-clogging strips of gristle to be trimmed off your steak and tossed into the trash? Or a sophisticated substance that contains within it the secret to human intelligence?

Fiber is "the new protein", according to market research firms. But it could also be the new pain in your stomach.

Your doctor can confirm a diagnosis of lactose intolerance with a clinical test. One that’s often used is a lactose tolerance test.
