Confused About Ultra-Processed Foods? Here’s What a New Study of Nearly 9 Million People Found (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As a dietitian, I get a lot of questions about ultra-processed foods (also known as UPFs). And I understand the confusion because frankly, I’m confused by it all, too. Some foods, like candy and soda, seem pretty obviously ultra-processed. But what about foods that aren’t so clear cut, like yogurt and cereal? And what does ultra-processed even mean? We’ve been waiting on the government to define the term, but in the meantime, research on ultra-processed food is piling up. Now, a new analysis inv

The enthusiasm is there at first, but it usually wanes quickly once the novelty of whatever chore chart we’
