Since publication of the original version of this article, the authors noticed that some values of Table 4 were arranged under incorrect columns. These values have now been arranged correctly in both the HTML and PDF versions of this article.

Furthermore, a few textual changes were made in the Health outcomes of vegetarians section to align with the corrected values of Table 4 in both the HTML and PDF versions of this article.
