One of the major criticisms that people have upon coming to the United States — is the quality of food. Especially Europeans, when they come to America, they’re often times really surprised to learn just how ultra-processed the American diet actually is. But, here’s the thing: even though most people intuitively understand that processed foods aren’t as good for them as Whole Foods, up until now, there’s actually been a real lack of scientific studies to confirm that suspicion.
There have been some studies which have linked ultra-processed food to poor health, but there hasn’t been a comprehensive review which can provide a broad assessment of all the evidence in this arena.
And so, in order to bridge that gap researchers conducted a study and recently published it in the pages of the British medical Journal. It’s titled: Ultra-processed food exposure and adverse health outcomes: an umbrella review of epidemiological meta-analyses.
This is the largest of its kind peer-reviewed study, and what the researchers did, was that they took 14 different studies that have already been published in the past 3 years, and they conducted a meta-analysis on them in order to determine the link between ultra-processed foods and adverse health effects.
And what they found was fascinating, so let’s go through it together.
