Description
In a major review, Asian scientists who tracked the diets of more than 8 million adults discovered that
consuming just an extra 100g of UPFs (ultra processed foods) each day increased the risk of
digestive diseases by a whooping twenty percent. Scientists labelled the findings important and urged
Governments to tighten food labelling regulations which would force manufacturers to disclose exactly
which additives are present in UPFs. Additionally, regular consumption of popular American snack
food increased the risk of other killer diseases.
