Ultra-processed food linked to 32 health conditions including cancer and heart disease

Major studies linked ultra-processed foods to cancer, heart disease, diabetes, depression and more health conditions.

The Lancet and leading British medical journals published the latest research findings on nutrition and health.

Ultra-processed foods are associated with thirty-two different types of health problems including cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. These conditions represent some of the most serious threats to public health.

In the UK, US, and Australia, ultra-processed foods account for more than half of the average diet. Food industry representatives strongly oppose implementation of stricter regulatory standards.
