Following the publication of the original article [1], the authors identified errors in the description of the score range of the Vegetarian Lifestyle Index in Table 1 and in the Methods section. The updated sentence and Table 1 are given below, and the changes have been highlighted in bold typeface.

The sentence currently reads:

The total vegetarian score was calculated by summing all of the points from each respective section to generate a composite score ranging in values from 0 to 80.

The sentence should read:

The total vegetarian score was calculated by summing all of the points from each respective section to generate a composite score ranging in values from 0 to 14.

The incorrect Table 1 is:

Table 1 Demographic and clinical characteristics of study subjects

The correct Table 1 is:

Table 1 Demographic and clinical characteristics of study subjects

The original article [1] has been corrected.
