Ultraprocessed foods make up more than half the calories the average American adult eats. They're also linked to a wide variety of health issues including heart disease, obesity and diabetes. CNN's Meg Tirrell visits the NIH Clinical Center where researchers are trying to determine why ultraprocessed foods lead to such poor health outcomes and why it's so hard to stop eating them. https://cnn.it/3CJ1riv
It should be a national requirement to teach nutrition and financial literacy in middle school and again in high school. And give food vouchers to students in need at school that can only be spent on fruits and vegetables.
And we still produce and sell them at low costs while overpricing healthier options.
Be under no illusion that countries where ultra processed foods was not part of the food culture have better health outcomes. Home food cooked with no awareness levels of nutritional value and that prioritises taste over whether it is good for you is equally harmful.
Ultra-processed foods are high in calories and low in nutritional value, making them a cause for concern as they have been linked to a variety of health problems. The rising trends in diseases such as heart disease, obesity and diabetes may be closely linked to the increased consumption of these foods.

NIH Clinical Center (CC) hopefully you can have an arm in the trial that has people eating food coming from EU. We are supposed to have better quality of food. With that you can have an approx conclusion on which policies and regulations you need to change to reduce chemicals for fruits and vegetables, change the way big companies are feeding animals, etc.
