- About 12.4% of older adults today exhibit signs of ultraprocessed food addiction, with the highest rates in those ages 50 to 64
- Ultraprocessed means industrial formulations — not just "anything packaged." Think sweetened cereals, instant noodles, snack bars, sodas, flavored yogurts, and many "healthy" frozen entrées
- The hook is by design — hyper-palatable combos of refined carbs, industrial fats, salt, and additives hit reward circuits fast, driving cravings, overeating, and repeat use
- High intake of ultraprocessed foods is tied to obesity, insulin resistance, cardiovascular problems, and cognitive decline, even in people who otherwise eat "healthy"
- Stocking smarter food choices, anchoring meals with protein and fiber, reading nutrition labels, and leaning on support groups when needed can help you break free from addiction
