[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wasn’t there some other recent study in the news that said the same thing?

I think this is the same study being discussed.

I think this is valuable info and worth considering -- agree with PP that the goal should be to aim for foods with no or minimal processing, though I think it's unrealistic for people to completely cut out all processed foods, including ultra processed. Like how many people can bake all their own bread?

What I wish is that the US would adopt some of the more restrictive rules, or at least require labeling, to identify the many questionable ingredients in a lot of heavily processed foods. Like the main difference between bread you bake at home and store bought bread? Preservatives, that prevent the store bought bread from going bad as quickly. A lot of the preservatives in American breads are not even legal in other countries. Some are though. It would be amazing if, at a minimum, foods were clearly labeled to identify the ingredients they include that should raise caution flags. As a consumer, I wind up standing in the bread aisle reading the tiny print ingredient lists and googling ingredients to try and figure it out. It's ridiculous that I should have to work that hard.
