It’s important to consider the impact and total volume of ultra processed foods, and the chemicals they contribute to the diet.
There’s increasing evidence that it’s not just a a matter of calorie equations or carb restriction overall that has effects.
Decades ago, research established that managing the glycemic load was more effective than just calorie counting for persons with diabetes.
15 years ago there was evidence building that diet drinks actually could contribute to metabolic problems.
Now studies looking at overall impacts of ultra processed foods suggest they mess up the gut micro biome or at best get taken up into energy much faster than expected.
The items listed in the article fall into the ultra processed category. The ‘everything in moderation’ approach may not be that successful when too much of the diet flips into the ultra processed categories.
This app is amazing. I have been using it to cut back on bad additives. While nearly impossible to cut out all bad additives this app is a game changer.
