The dangers of ultra-processed foods 

Ultra-processed foods are everywhere; the category includes many cereals, breads, yogurts, and frozen dinners - not to mention sweets and sodas. In fact, they make up nearly 60% of the typical American diet. But there’s mounting evidence that ultra-processed foods are potentially addictive and uniquely dangerous, linked to conditions including obesity, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Our experts will walk through the science and share policy recommendations, as well as tips for healthy eating.
