Live Mint  

There are more dangers lurking in what we eat today than what we might face while crossing a road. Many ultra-processed foods are designed to be highly palatable, often containing additives and flavour enhancers that can trigger overeating and addictive eating behaviours. Ultra-processed foods contain a long list of additives, preservatives, and artificial ingredients, explains Neha Ranglani, a Mumbai-based integrative nutritionist and health coach. Ultra-processed foods should be avoided because they lead to nutrition deficiency and obesity, and can cause severe chronic health conditions, digestive problems. Many commercial vegan meat substitutes fall into the category of moderately to highly processed foods due to the use of isolated proteins, oils, and additives,” she warns.
