Vegans and Calcium
Sunday, 01.04.2009, 11:17pm (GMT)

 
Paul Appleby is an IVU patron and Senior Statistician at Cancer Research UK at their Epidemiology Unit in Oxford, UK. He has co-authored several papers arising from studies of the long-term health of vegetarians, including the Oxford Vegetarian Study, the Health Food Shoppers Study, and the Oxford arm of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) which includes 20,000 vegetarians.

In Sep, 08, Paul gave a talk to members of London Vegans on lessons for
vegetarians and vegans from the EPIC-Oxford study. You can hear
extracts from the presentation and an interview with a dietitian (with
particular emphasis on sources of calcium for vegans), and view Paul’s slides at
