The threat to consumption of ultra -processed food is in the spotlight in the middle of the U.S. government’s plans to eliminate artificial food coloring.
New research supports this movement, revealing that foods in this category are related to premature deaths in eight countries.
The study, published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, focused on the risk of mortality for all cause and the “epidemiological load” of ultra -processed food consumption.

The meta -analysis of observational cohort studies, carried out from November 2023 to July 2024, was examined to people with low consumption of ultra -processed foods in Colombia and Brazil, intermediate consumption in Chile and Mexico and high consumption in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada.
The researchers found an association between ultra -processed foods and mortality from all reasons in the eight countries, which varied from 4% of risk in Colombia to 14% risk in the United Kingdom and the United States.

“The findings are supported by the fact that ultra -processed food intake contributes significantly to the overall load of the disease in many countries, and its reduction should be included in the recommendations of national dietary guidelines and addressed in public policies,” concluded researchers.

In a statement sent to Fox News Digital, the study co -author, Eduardo AF Nilson, a food and nutrition researcher in Brazil, has shared how the evidence of the health -related health risks (UPFS) has increased significantly over the last decade. “
“UPF consumption has been associated with 32 adverse health results, including obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and even mental health problems,” he said.
“UPF consumption has been associated with 32 adverse health results, including obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and even mental health problems.”
“Our estimates show that the magnitude of the UPF impact on mortality for all cause is relevant in all countries involved in analysis, especially those that predominate in diets, such as the United States and the United Kingdom.”
The difference between countries with “lower, but growing” consumption of UPF and those with higher consumption suggests that “great impacts could be achieved on preventable deaths by reducing UPF consumption”.

In a previous interview with Fox News Digital in New York City, webmd’s medical director, Dr. John Whyte, shared a precautionary word on ultra -processed food exposure.
As the Make America movement (Maha) (Maha) causes the nation to reassess what people consume, Whyte agreed that there are “many things we have to do to make food healthy.”

“There are so many foods that we consume that they are processed and, even more important, ultra -processed,” he said.
“It often seems more convenient. It’s cheaper, it lasts longer,” he continued. “And sometimes I worry about how long some of these foods last.”

The practitioner asked, “What is in them allowing them to stay in the pantry for a couple of years?”
As an example, Whyte referred to “blue areas”, areas of the world where people live 100 years old and have a low incidence of dementia and heart disease.
He said that residents of blue areas mainly eat food diets based on plants.

“They do not eat many cookies, meats or processed snacks,” he said.
“And this is where I think we have to have this important discussion about how we have a healthier meal. How can we make it more available? How can we make it economical for people?”

In response, the Secretary of Health and Human Services of the United States, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and the Commissioner for the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Dr. Mary Makary have announced their intention to solve the use of synthetic dyes based on the country’s food supply oil.
“Over the past 50 years, North children -Americans are increasingly living in a toxic soup of synthetic chemicals,” Makary said in a recent press conference.

“The scientific community has carried out several studies that propose concerns about the correlation between the synthetic dyes based on oil and various health conditions, such as attention hyperactivity disorder, obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance, cancer, genomic interruption and Ig problems.”
