Ultraprocessed or not? It matters when following dietary guidelines
Manage episode 500471732 series 5409
A diet full of ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) has generally been thought to be bad for your health – and a trigger for disease.
But for the first time a study has looked at the health effects of UPFs within the context of national dietary guidelines.
And while a minimally processed diet is still better for you overall, it’s not all bad news if you’re sticking close to those directions.
