Vegan diet effects on asthma and inflammation in young adults
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how a vegan diet (no animal foods) affects inflammation in young adults with and without asthma. It may help show if what you eat can improve asthma control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 30 years old.
- You have not smoked for at least 5 years.
- Your weight is in a normal range (BMI between 18.5 and 24.9).
- You are willing to eat either a vegan diet (no animal products) or a typical diet that includes meat and dairy for 12 weeks.

This early-phase study looks at how asthma-related inflammation works and whether a diet-related approach could help. It may be most relevant if you have confirmed asthma and can follow the study’s diet requirements.
This study tests whether a specially designed diet plan can help adults whose asthma is not well controlled. You will use a smartphone app to track your food and symptoms, and the study will provide dietary guidance.
This study tests whether eating a vegan diet for a short time changes the bacteria in your gut and affects your metabolism. You'll follow a strict vegan meal plan, and researchers will check your blood and stool samples to see how your body responds.
This study follows adults with asthma in real life to better understand asthma care and outcomes. You may be invited if you already joined another asthma-related or health-related observational study and don’t have certain major lung or health conditions.
This study tests a program that combines exercise and other support to help people with difficult-to-control asthma feel better and be more active. It aims to improve your symptoms and quality of life.
This trial looks at how certain proteins (Transgelin-2, Metallothionein-2, and Ezrin) are associated with asthma. It may help researchers better understand asthma biology and potentially guide future treatments.
