Thesis title: "Plant-based diets and musculoskeletal health"
Thesis outline: The overall aim of this thesis is to investigate the impact of plant-based diets on musculoskeletal health. In more detail we want to explore how bone and muscle structures are influenced by specific dietary pattern such as omnivore, pescatarian, vegetarian or vegan. This project will take place within the COPLANT study, a prospective cohort study focusing on advantages and disadvantages of plant-based diets.
