A mere four weeks — that’s all it took for me to pile on enough fat to move from being a healthy weight to being overweight, putting my health at real risk.


At the same time, my thinking became sluggish and I slept badly, lying in bed racked with anxiety, sweating with fears about everyday life. I developed heartburn as well as constipation. I got piles.

But worst of all, my brain rewired itself just as if I had developed an addiction to a drug of abuse. How did I wreak such terrible damage?

I wasn’t even trying to gain weight. I did it simply by following the same type of diet that millions of Britons, including children, now follow every day of the year.

Conclusion

Our findings suggest that actions to reduce
the ultra-processed food consumption generally rich in
free sugars could lead to substantial public health benefits.

there is one thing that many agree on: we should avoid junk food.

British children are eating ‘exceptionally high’ proportions of ultra-processed foods, increasing their risk of obesity, new research suggests.

The study looked at the health impact of consuming ultra-processed foods (UPFs) – food and drink heavily processed during its manufacture, such as frozen pizzas, fizzy drinks, mass-produced packaged bread and some ready meals.

Researchers found that UPFs make up a considerably high proportion of children’s diets – more than 40% of intake in grams and more than 60% of calories on average.

The higher the proportion of UPFs youngsters consume, the greater the risk of them becoming overweight or obese, according to the study.

It also suggests that eating patterns established in childhood extend into adulthood, potentially setting children on a lifelong trajectory for obesity and a range of negative physical and mental health outcomes.

Ultra-Processed Foods: Last and least healthy on the NOVA scale are ultra-processed foods. This group is considered highly processed due to a large amount of added ingredients. Nova typically classifies this group as industrial formulations made entirely or mostly from substances such as oils, fats, sugar, starch and proteins as well as flavor enhancers and artificial colors that make these foods appear more attractive. Frozen items such as pre-prepared burgers or pizzas, candies, sodas, chips and ice cream are a few examples.
