Exclusion Criteria
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Subjects will receive a handbook on plant-based diet including recipe recommendations. They will follow a strict plant-based diet for 21 day.
Behavioral: Plant-based diet
21 day diet that excludes any form of meat and other animal products, including dairy products.
Change in postprandial sleepiness
Measured by Epworth Sleepiness Questionnaire before and after a plant-based diet. The Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) is an 8 item questionnaire that measures daytime sleepiness in participants. Possible scores range from 0-24, with higher scores indicating a higher average sleep propensity in daily life, and a worse outcome.
Time frame: Baseline, 21 days
