Why ultra-processed foods are not a healthy choice

ABC  

Tegan Taylor: And it's increasingly clear that ultra-processed foods, things like candy, packaged soups, nuggets, sweetened cereals, aren't great for your health. But what happened is that when we analysed these two dimensions of foods together, we basically saw that the risk, the risk associated with the traditional way of looking at food is almost completely explained, or at least for a greatest proportion, by the fact that these unhealthy foods from a nutritional point of view are also ultra-processed. The point is that when you look at a diet, especially in this time, where all the food that we put on the table comes mostly from the supermarkets are highly processed, it's important to consider when you analyse the nutritional content of foods also to account for the fact that they may be ultra-processed. Because a lot of people rely on ultra-processed foods for their food supply, especially people who are living with lower incomes, Marialaura Bonaccio: Yes, because they are cheaper, yes.
