This Ultraprocessed Food Is The Worst For Your Brain Health

Participants in the study were classified by their level of UPF consumption, defined using the NOVA classification system, which groups foods based on the degree of industrial processing rather than nutrient content alone. The study examined total UPF intake and individual UPF subcategories, including processed meats, ultraprocessed beverages, sweets, savory snacks, ready-to-eat meals, and more.
