Have you ever noticed the ingredients written on the packaging while buying foodstuff and edible things?? Sometimes you see a long list of ingredients printed on the package, which is hard to even pronounce. It is often unlikely that you can find them in your kitchen cabinet and add those compounds to your food when cooking, such as emulsifiers, colors, stabilizers or additives that start with the letter E. Can you guess what they mean after all? That the food you are buying is of ultra-processed type and this may not be suitable for your health.
Research has shown that excessive use of these foods increases the risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and even premature death. The more ultra-processed food a person consumes, the more likely he is to develop depression and anxiety, and excessive consumption of these foods may lead to negative effects on the brain and reduction of learning ability and problem solving and acute risk of Alzheimer's.
