Outstanding paper👏. ‘As we advance our understanding of the potential role of additives in the development of diabetes, several public health authorities already recommend minimising the consumption of UPFs in order to lower exposure to controversial cosmetic food additives'👏👏

Company after company said it wants to make more junk food more available to more people more often. Executives unveiled ultra-processed creations practically suggesting they become part of the new food pyramid: Froot Loops are perfectly sensible as dinner bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
A purported strength of a plant-based approach to diet is that it tends to emphasize whole, natural foods and thus decreases the amount of UPFs consumed. PBMAs turn that strategy on its head, in effect, arguing that the ultra-processing means nothing as long as it is plant-based.

Bill presented to the US Senate requires warning labels on UPF ('Consuming ultra-processed foods and drinks can cause weight gain, which increases the risk of obesity and type-2 diabetes’) and prohibits child ads. Interesting operational definition of UPFs sanders.senate.gov/wp-content/upl…
Pdf now available for the 1st longitudinal study that assessed the health impact of adhering to the ultra-processed dietary pattern using Nova24h, a validated 24-h web-based dietary recall that collects dietary information in line with the Nova system. authors.elsevier.com/c/1iw45_5ydpav…
UPF consumption among the IARC/WHO priorities for carcinogenicity evaluations during 2025-29. Priority assigned based on evidence of contemporary human exposure and the extent to which available evidence on carcinogenicity could support a new evaluation. thelancet.com/journals/lanon…
"The American diet has only gotten worse since Food Inc 1: close to 70% of the food Americans eat are “ultra-processed.” That was not a term you heard back in 2008, but a body of scientific evidence has emerged that these foods are uniquely harmful. Food, Inc. 2 explores this"

Please, read this thread by Leonie disputing the common claim that the safety assessment of food additives is reassuring.

A practical approach to regulating UPF (e.g. taxation, marketing restrictions etc): targeting food products that are high in added sugar, salt or saturated fat, or that contain colorants or flavors. In the US food supply, this would encompass 99% of UPF. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S26…
Really interesting, Xand. Thanks for noting it.

Today, President Lula and his Ministries signed the new country's national food basket in line with Brazilian Dietary Guidelines (shown in the picture). Foods in this basket, un/minimally processed foods and culinary ingredients (of course, no UPF), will be exempt from taxation.

@KevinH_PhD @CMonteiro_USP @MaritKolby @AnthonyFardet @GyorgyScrinis @MarkLawrence_Oz @PhilBakerNZ @melissalane0080 @sguyenet Agree. But for public health guidance, I don’t think we need to understand all of the mechanisms before acting. IMO, the risk of not regulating ultra-processed foods is greater than the risk of limiting consumption of potentially healthy ultra-processed foods.
@TyRBeal @KevinH_PhD @CMonteiro_USP @AnthonyFardet @GyorgyScrinis @MarkLawrence_Oz @PhilBakerNZ @melissalane0080 @sguyenet Yes, and IMO, we need to guide the public towards diets based on whole foods, not train them to use NOVA. NOVA is a research tool. It has shown us that diets made up of mostly unprocessed/minimally processed foods is the way forward. Dietary advice must say so in clear language.
