Identical Twins Experimented with Vegan Vs. Omnivorous Diet

Identical twins Hugo and Ross Turner, known for their adventurous travels, embarked on an intriguing 12-week experiment from January to March 2020 to compare the effects of two contrasting dietsโ€”vegan and omnivorous.

The brothers believed that their genetic similarity would make their experiment a valuable source of insight into how different diets impact physical performance and overall well-being.

To ensure fairness and eliminate any potential bias, the twins followed identical fitness training routines throughout the experiment.

Ross, a personal trainer, created a rigorous endurance-focused program, which he structured to be followed five to six days a week.

The meals were meticulously prepared and supplied by Mindful Chef, ensuring that both twins consumed nearly the same daily calorie intake.

Hugo adhered to a strictly plant-based diet, while Ross chose a more diverse approach that included both plant and animal products.
