UPFs, Diets, Disease: The Global Drift 🍔➡️🌍➡️⚠️
Manage episode 520470609 series 2740117
The new Lancet Series on ultra-processed foods offers a striking insight: as UPFs rise globally, traditional whole-food diets decline—bringing nutrient imbalance, overeating, toxic exposures, and hyper-palatable formulations that quietly reshape health trajectories. 🍔➡️⚠️
Across more than 100 prospective studies and multiple trials, higher UPF intake consistently links to obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, depression, and higher all-cause mortality. 📉🩺
The message is clear: reducing UPF consumption isn't a wellness trend—it's a public health imperative. Evidence-based policies and renewed investment in minimally processed, culturally rooted food systems are urgently needed. 🌱🔬🌏
