Why ultra-processed foods (UPF'S) are not good for your body, they greatly affect your health!

 Why ultra-processed foods (UPF'S) are not good for your body, they greatly affect your health!



This term ultra-processed foods (ultraprocessed foods or UPF’s) was coined by the nutritionist-epidemiologist since 1990 in Brazil. Dr. Monteiro detected that childhood obesity was increasing rapidly. So his research team at the University of São Paulo carried out studies to get to the bottom of the problem. It was found that ultra-processed foods are contributing to the increase in obesity, type 2 diabetes, depression, heart problems and premature aging among some diseases.
UPF's are already a Global problem and represent 67 percent of the calories consumed by children and adolescents, mainly in the USA.

According to the NOVA classification established by Dr. Monteiro and colleagues, foods fall into 4 categories, clarifying that this classification is not based on their nutrient content, since almost all ultra-processed foods add vitamins or minerals to improve only the nutritional value but they are not healthy

Category ONE: Unprocessed or minimally processed foods such as fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables, beans, lentils, meat, chicken, fish, eggs, milk, natural yogurt, rice, pasta, corn, flour, coffee, tea, herbs and spices.


Category TWO: Processed culinary ingredients such as salt, cooking oils, butter, honey, vinegar and sugar


Category THREE: Processed foods that result from the combination of Group ONE and TWO that are preserved or modified simply by being canned, glass-packaged, fermented or baked. This includes freshly baked bread, canned vegetables, beans, fish, and some cheeses. Some add preservatives to make them last longer on the market.


Category FOUR: ultra-processed foods. These are the ones that are made industrially with ingredients that you do not use at home such as fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, proteins such as soy, and they also add colorings, sweeteners (to sweeten), and emulsifiers. Everything to make these foods look pretty and taste nice. Almost everything known as junk food falls into this group.


If you are one of those who consume many of these foods, your health may be affected. Review what you eat and improve your eating and nutrition habits. Remember eating is not the same as nourishing yourself with fresh foods with natural nutrients. Watch your health.

Also, if you do not have instructions from a professional to correct an illness, do not diet, because of fashion or because it was recommended to you. Many diets are fads and fads go out of style. If you want to lose weight, start measuring the amounts of food you consume per day using a measuring cup. Walk, exercise to suit you, sleep, relax.

And I add, you should drink water preferably from a mineral source, which does not mean that it should be carbonated and it should not be alkaline water all day. Do you know how much water you should drink a day?
