Limiting ultra-processed foods does not necessarily make for a healthy diet
Jul 3 2024 - Expert reaction to unpublished conference presentation on whether limiting ultra-processed food improves diet quality https://www.sciencemediacentre.org/expert-reaction-to-unpublished-conference-presentation-on-whether-limiting-ultra-processed-food-improves-diet-quality/ - Dr. Hilda Mulrooney, Reader in Nutrition & Health at London Metropolitan University, discussed an unpublished study at Nutrition 2024 that critiques the NOVA classification system, which categorizes foods based solely on their degree of processing. She pointed out that this approach overlooks the nutritional value of foods. The study found that it is possible to follow a diet high in ultra-processed foods (UPF) that still meets national dietary guidelines.
Limiting ultra-processed foods does not necessarily make for a healthy diet
Jul 3 2024 - This story was temporarily removed pending a review. While the research abstract and press release appear to attempt to debunk the notion that minimally processed foods are inherently healthier, they overlook several key aspects. Firstly, equating cost and shelf life with dietary quality is misleading; health benefits often come at a price. Secondly, the low Healthy Eating Index scores for both menus could suggest a possible poorly designed study, as a genuinely balanced diet would score higher regardless of processing level. Lastly, focusing solely on NOVA classifications without considering food quality and nutrient density paints an incomplete picture of dietary health. Once the full peer-reviewed paper is available, we will update this story accordingly.
Limiting ultra-processed foods does not necessarily make for a healthy diet
Jul 2 2024 - Title changed from "Eating primarily minimally processed foods does not make for a healthy diet, study shows" to better communicate that this content is a press release of results presented at NUTRITION 2024, and is not a peer-reviewed journal study.
