Experts warn ultra-processed foods increase risk of cardiovascular disease

Ultra-processed foods (UPF) may increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, heart attacks and strokes, two new studies have found.

Two landmark studies have found an increased risk of high blood pressure, heart attacks and strokes in people who eat the most ultra-processed foods - that's sliced bread, biscuits, ready meals - and even healthier options like cereal and low-fat yoghurt.

Following a type 2 diabetes diagnosis 2 months ago, I have moved to wholefoods diet with no added sugar and no refined carbs. Weight has dropped off me, sleep improved, skin better, psoriasis cleared up, digestion improved, happier and healthier.

Hope more and more ppl are aware of this and start making the right choices🤞

[MartinBroadhurst]

It's ridiculously difficult to cut UPF out entirely. In our household we've dramatically reduced UPF consumption in the past six months but it's so difficult. Emulsifiers, gums, extracts and all sorts of other additives are in so much of the everyday foods in our shops.

With the price of food the quility should be better should at least not be dangerous. I rember there was a study to see how much wood dust can be added to certain food with out us noticing

The Weston Super Mare population should study this video. Shocking place.

They really should have interviewed someone more articulate than the first woman.

This report came out and was reported months ago. Say it more Sky.

Actually bread, even the whole grain ones, is an ultra-processed food actually.

What a Prop 65 warning labels on your food make investors rich today?

[TomNook.]

The masses need to consume processed and fast food - there isn't enough fresh food for everyone.

[jasongrundy]

Ultra-processed is not a meaningful term.
Count your calories, how much effort was put into making the food taste good doesn't matter.
