Study finds high intake of ultraprocessed foods increases heart disease and stroke risks.
A study involving over 200,000 U.S. adults found that consuming high amounts of ultraprocessed foods, especially sugary drinks and processed meats, increases the risk of cardiovascular disease by 11%, coronary artery disease by 16%, and stroke by 9%.
However, certain ultraprocessed foods like breakfast cereals, flavored yogurts, and packaged snacks were linked to a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease.
Ultraprocessed foods often include additives and have high levels of sugar, fat, and salt.
