Ultra-processed food intake and impairment across multiple cognitive domains in nationally representative older U.S. adults
Introduction: Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption, which accounts for more than 50% of energy intake in the U.S., has steadily increased among older adults over the past decade. UPF consumption is associated with overall cognitive decline, but few studies have examined the associations between UPF consumption and individual cognitive domains. In this study, we examined associations between UPF consumption and impairment in executive function, …
Associations between food insecurity and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program participation with ultra-processed food acquisitions for home consumption in US households
Objective: Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are shown to promote disease. Research shows high UPF intake with food insecurity and SNAP participation. However, no research has quantitatively examined UPF acquisitions (which includes purchases) by food insecurity and SNAP status in US households. This analysis examines food insecurity and SNAP participation with UPF acquisitions for home consumption. Design: Food insecurity was assessed through the ten…
Perceptions of Ultra-Processed Foods, Food Processing, and Food Healthfulness among a Cross-sectional National Sample of US Adults
Objective: There is growing public health interest in ultra-processed foods (UPF), but limited research exploring consumers’ perceptions of these foods in the United States. We aimed to characterize consumers’ beliefs about UPFs, the association between perceived food processing and perceived food healthfulness, and alignment between consumers’ perceptions and objective measures of food processing and healthfulness. Design: In a cross-sectional s…
Consumption of ultra-processed foods by foreign-born adults rise with increased levels of acculturation in the United States
Objective Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption has been linked to increased risks of negative health outcomes such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, and all-cause mortality. Some studies have shown an increase of UPF consumption with acculturation, whereas the influence of the Western diet on non-US born individuals is an area of increasing interest. The aim of this work was to investigate UPF consumption with an acculturation index and to assess wh…
Processing level and diet quality of the US grocery cart
Objective: The majority of groceries purchased by US households are industrially processed, yet it is unclear how processing level influences diet quality. We sought to determine if processing level is associated with diet quality of grocery purchases. Design: We analysed grocery purchasing data from the National Household Food Acquisition and Purchase Survey 2012–2013. Household grocery purchases were categorized by the NOVA framework as minimal…
Ultra-processed foods
The present commentary contains a clear and simple guide designed to identify ultra-processed foods. It responds to the growing interest in ultra-processed foods among policy makers, academic researchers, health professionals, journalists and consumers concerned to devise policies, investigate dietary patterns, advise people, prepare media coverage, and when buying food and checking labels in shops or at home. Ultra-processed foods are defined wi…
