A qualitative study of young peoples' thoughts and attitudes to follow a more plant-based diet.

Plant-based diets (PBDs) refer to dietary habits that reduce the consumption of animal-based products and increase the consumption of nutritionally rich plant foods. PBD's have been shown to provide significant health benefits, such as reducing obesity and improving psychological wellbeing, and are environmentally friendly. However, few studies have investigated factors that influence young people's thoughts and attitudes toward following a PBD in western societies, particularly in the United Kingdom.
