8 hazardous foods that shorten your life, according to science

A recent study revealed that these ultra-transformed foods increase your death risk of all causes.


Unless your diet only consists of raw foods you are preparing, it is inevitable that you are going to eatsomeProcessed foods every day. "Most foods must go through a kind of transformation ... to even be edible and digestible," said Dietian Stacey Nelson claimed.HARVARD HOME HEALTH WATCH."The minute you cook something, you will treat it."

That said, there is a big difference betweenhealthy andunhealthy Processed foods, so scientists create food classification systems to distinguish both. One of these systems isNOVA, which was developed by researchers from the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil in 2010 and includes all foods in four different categories based on how they are made. (Speaking of it, here is the100 recipes the easiest you can do.)

Systems like Nova gave rise to the notion of"Ultra-transformed foods"-a.k.aThe worst processed foods you want to avoid eating as much as possible. These foods are "formulated" (via industrial and chemical processes) using multiple transformed ingredients that are themselves made using sugar, oils, grease, salt, etc.

A recent study published in August 2020 in the journalNutrition found that the higher consumption of these ultra-transformed foods is associated with an increased risk of deaths of all causes.

More specifically, the analysis examined the data of 20 different studies involving a total of 334,111 participants and found that the higher consumption of ultra-transformative foods was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease, Coronary, cerebrovascular disease, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, obesity, depression, irritable colon syndrome, cancer, postmenopausal breast cancer, asthma, wheezing and fragility.

The outliers of this list were prostate and colorectal cancers, gestational diabetes or the risk of dying of cardiovascular diseases, which did not seem to be related to a high diet in ultra-transformed foods. That said, the authors of the study stated that their results will have to be confirmed using a large-scale prospective clinical studies before specific recommendations for the general public can be performed.

However, this research suggests that people who eat more ultra-transformed foods are more likely to die prematurely from all causes and / or undergo a variety of diseases and health conditions. With that in mind,Consider cutting these 8 ultra-transformed foods from your diet as soon as possible.
