Background: Several meta-analyses evaluated the association between vegetarian diets and health outcomes. To integrate the large amount of the available evidence, we performed an umbrella review of published meta-analyses that investigated the association between vegetarian diets and health outcomes. Methods: We performed an umbrella review of the evidence across meta-analyses of observational and interventional studies. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and ISI Web of Knowledge. Additional articles were retrieved from primary search references. Meta-analyses of observational or interventional studies that assessed at least one health outcome in association with vegetarian diets. We estimated pooled effect sizes (ESs) using four different random-effect models: DerSimonian and Laird, maximum likelihood, empirical Bayes, and restricted maximum likelihood. We assessed heterogeneity using I-2 statistics and publication bias using funnel plots, radial plots, normal Q-Q plots, and the Rosenthal's fail-safe N test. Results: The umbrella review identified 20 meta-analyses of observational and interventional research with 34 health outcomes. The majority of the meta-analyses (80%) were classified as moderate or high-quality reviews, based on the AMSTAR2 criteria. By comparison with omnivorous diets, vegetarian diets were associated with a significantly lower concentration of blood total cholesterol (pooled ES = -0.549 mmol/L; 95% CI: -0.773 to -0.325; P < 0.001), LDL-cholesterol (pooled ES = -0.467 mmol/L; 95% CI: -0.600 to -0.335); P < 0.001), and HDL-cholesterol (pooled ES = -0.082 mmol/L; 95% CI: -0.095 to -0.069; P < 0.001). In comparison to omnivorous diets, vegetarian diets were associated with a reduced risk of negative health outcomes with a pooled ES of 0.886 (95% CI: 0.848 to 0.926; P < 0.001). In comparison to omnivores, Seventh-day Adventists (SDA) vegetarians had a significantly reduced risk of negative health outcomes with a pooled ES of 0.721 (95% CI: 0.625 to 0.832; P < 0.001). Non-SDA vegetarians had no significant reduction of negative health outcomes when compared to omnivores (pooled ES = 0.973; 95% CI: 0.873 to 1.083; P = 0.51). Vegetarian diets were associated with harmful outcomes on one-carbon metabolism markers (lower concentrations of vitamin B12 and higher concentrations of homocysteine), in comparison to omnivorous diets. Conclusions: Vegetarian diets are associated with beneficial effects on the blood lipid profile and a reduced risk of negative health outcomes, including diabetes, ischemic heart disease, and cancer risk. Among vegetarians, SDA vegetarians could represent a subgroup with a further reduced risk of negative health outcomes. Vegetarian diets have adverse outcomes on one-carbon metabolism. The effect of vegetarian diets among pregnant and lactating women requires specific attention. Well-designed pro- spective studies are warranted to evaluate the consequences of the prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency during pregnancy and infancy on later life and of trace element deficits on cancer risks.
