Ultra-Processed Foods: Concerns, Controversies, and Exceptions

Описание: What is the role of ultra-processed plant-based products in the diet? Instead of being a part of the problem, plant-based meats may be the solution to the ultra-processed foods issue.

In this webinar, I cover the important takeaways from my forthcoming book, which you can preorder now. Ultra-Processed Foods: Concerns, Controversies, and Exceptions (https://nutritionfacts.org/book/ultra...) answers the question: What is the role of ultra-processed plant-based products in the diet?

Excess consumption of ultra-processed foods is linked to increased risks of disease and death, however, these associations appear to be driven largely by sweetened beverages and processed meats. In that case, instead of being a part of the problem, plant-based meats may be the solution to the ultra-processed foods issue. Unlike other ultra-processed foods, plant-based meats are healthier than the foods they were designed to replace, but how do they compare to whole plant foods? I’ll explore the public health implications of full or partial replacement of animal products with both ultra-processed plant-based products and whole plant foods.
