Welcome y’all to the showdown of the century, where diets battle for supremacy — vegan vs. omnivorous, forks vs. knives, fruits and roots vs. flushes and shanks.
In this thrilling diet matchup, we delve into the results of a groundbreaking study that explores the impact of a vegan diet versus an omnivorous one.
