- A new study reveals how potentially devastating ultra-processed foods truly are for your health.
- Foods typically considered "junk food" usually fall into the category of being "ultra-processed," and scientists have drawn a clear link between these foods and early death.
- In the new study, researchers determined that regular consumption of processed foods (as opposed to eating whole foods most of the time) increased the risk of death from all causes by 26%.
When you're looking for a snack or a last-second dinner while on your way home from a long day at work, you might be tempted to reach for foods that are already prepared and ready to eat. This can often mean you're eating something that falls into the category of "junk food," which is highly processed and far from nutritionally complete.
Our fast-moving lifestyles have led to junk food becoming an easy option to fill our stomachs when we're hungry. After all, whipping up a meal from scratch using fresh, whole ingredients takes time, and many of us feel like we don't have the time or energy to make good food choices. Now, a new study suggests that we should find that time and energy, or we may be sacrificing years or even decades of life.
