researchers found that a 10% increase in the consumption of ultraprocessed foods was significantly associated with a 14% higher

The source of this food category is the NOVA food classification system – a tool for nutrition and public health research, policy and action that was used in the study published in JAMA Internal Medicine. It categorizes foods according to the nature, extent and purpose of processing. Here’s a list of some common ultraprocessed foods:
Carbonated drinks
Sweet or savory packaged snacks
Ice cream :naraz:
Candies (confectionery)
Margarines and spreads
Cookies, pastries and cakes :smack:
Cereal bars
“Fruit”-flavored drinks
Cocoa drinks :disgust:
Meat and chicken extracts
“Instant” sauces
“Health” and “slimming” products such as powdered or “fortified” meal and dish substitutes
Pre-made pies, pasta and pizza dishes
Poultry and fish “nuggets” and “sticks”
Sausages
Burgers
Hot dogs
Powdered and packaged “instant” soups, noodles and desserts
So will have to start making Ice Cream, cookies and cakes from scratch at home! :bummer:
I guess if it is truly homemade that it’s okay. As for me, my family hasn’t ordered pizza or any processed food for almost 10 years. I discovered so many delicious pizza recipes and decided to cook it by myself. I won’t compare was it worth in money, but at least I’m sure what ingredients were used (high-quality bacon, parmesan and blue cheese, for example). We mostly cook outside at the backyard with a portable pizza oven as https://pizzaovenradar.com/ advised (works on propane).
