Schmidt relied on internal corporate documents...to demonstrate how Philip Morris engineered Lunchables and other ultra-processed foods to be “hyper-palatable,” which studies have shown leads to overeating and weight gain.

Ever heard the term 'ultra-processed foods (UPFs)'?
It comes from the NOVA classification system, which groups foods into 4⃣ main categories according to the extent and purpose of processing, from unprocessed/minimally #ProcessedFoods to #UPFs.
Canadians get nearly half their daily calories from ultra-processed foods like candy, chips, sweetened cereals & sugary drinks, often low in beneficial nutrients and linked to risk of heart disease & stroke.

Ultra-processed foods are engineered for overconsumption - raising questions about real consumer choice.

All ultra processed food products (#UPFs,) usually high on sugar salt and fats (#HFSS)are NEVER tested for safety before being introduced.
When was last time a RCT was done ?
Same happened with infant formula. Freely marketed and advertised, increased their consumption making it worlds largest uncontrolled clinical trial. Babies died and got sicker.
When scientists demands markeing bans, they were asked for "evidence"
History repeats now with same problems being faced by older children and youth getting obesity and getting sicker. Regulations are opposed by the same food industry.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is calling on Dunkin’ and Starbucks to release safety data for their high-sugar beverages.

#Opinion | The question is whether we are willing to classify & treat obesity as a failure of design rather than a failure of will, and to respond with structural imagination

Chips and soda may have more in common with cigarettes than apples, experts warn in a new study on #UPFs.

Last week in India, World Obesity President Simón Barquera shared lessons from Mexico’s public health action - from food warning labels to SSB & UPF taxes - drawing on evidence from the Lancet UPF Series (published last year).

#WhoKnew the act of toasting frozen bread causes "starch resistance" thereby reducing starch content by 40%
#WhatNotToEat is full of useful guidance on avoiding #UPFs - Ultra Processed Food
At last, Prof @TimSpector has gone properly mainstream
'The presumptive findings, primarily related to chronic illness with a strong dietary component, enable the Lancet and presumably #MAHA to frame #UPFs as a population-wide risk exposure similar in scale to the original environmental sins, tobacco and air pollution, justifying broad regulatory and educational strategies,' writes Chuck Dinerstein of @ACSHorg.
...
The Lancet’s conclusion is unambiguous:
“A unified global response to UPFs should directly confront corporate power… and disrupt the ultra-processed business model.”
The message is unmistakable. Confront UPFs as was done for tobacco because they operate using the same machinery of influence, obstruction, and profit-driven harm. These arguments naturally intersect with MAHA’s own priorities and political positioning.' https://t.co/apMcJcZ2vk
Real food is not a “diet” 🥗✨ It’s how your body was designed to be fuelled 💪

'By targeting processing tools and additives as inherently bad—rather than focusing on nutrition—opponents of #UPFs are demonizing all #foods produced using these tools,' writes @unbiasedscipod. 'Simplistic good vs. bad food narratives can backfire.' https://t.co/Igugibb6x2
Ultra-processed foods are not as simple as a label. 🛒 Explore the gray areas around #UPFs and why focusing only on labels and definitions misses the deeper mechanisms at play: https://t.co/ZEyaWaA9cf

New research sounds the alarm on ultra-processed foods and your smile.
A large study of nearly 4,000 Iranian adults found that higher consumption of ultra-processed foods #UPFs like sugary drinks, packaged snacks, fast food, and sweets is directly linked to poorer dental health.
Using advanced statistical modeling, researchers showed that people who ate the most UPFs had significantly fewer #teeth, more missing teeth, and more decayed teeth. The study also revealed that age and gender play a key role, with older adults and men showing stronger negative effects, suggesting long-term dietary patterns take a cumulative toll on oral health.
UPFs are often high in sugar, acids, and refined carbs, which fuel tooth decay and gum disease. They also lack protective nutrients found in whole foods. This study adds to growing evidence that diet quality is crucial not just for general health, but specifically for preserving your teeth.
