10. Your bones may fracture more easily.
A vegan diet can mean that you can have a lower level of calcium and vitamin D compared to non-vegans. This can leave you with a higher risk for osteoporosis, where your bone density is lower and they can fracture easier, according to a new study done by Oxford. They say that this is partly because vegans have a lower BMI, as they are more likely to have hip, leg, and vertebral fractures.
