[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 3147, member: 1"] [HEADING=2][URL='https://www.marketwatch.com/story/processed-foods-like-ramen-packets-and-frozen-pizza-can-hurt-your-heart-and-the-globe-study-says-11648671786']Processed foods like ramen packets and frozen pizza can hurt your heart — and the globe, study says - Marketwatch[/URL][/HEADING] [B]Diets worldwide are more processed and less diverse, having an impact on human health and much-needed agrobiodiversity, this paper argues [/B] Our propensity for packaged ramen lunches, frozen pizza, too much pasta and then soda to wash it all down doesn’t only put our personal health at greater risk over the long run — highly processed diets are damaging the planet, a group of scientists argues. That’s because we’re killing off diverse plant offerings in favor of only a handful of grains for human consumption and to feed the animals we eat mainly for beef, pork and chicken. The connection between human health and environmental factors was laid out in new research [URL='https://gh.bmj.com/content/7/3/e008269']in the journal BMJ Global Health[/URL]. Ultra-processed foods, such as sweetened or salty snacks, soft drinks, instant noodles, reconstituted meat products, pre-prepared pizza and pasta dishes, cookies and candy, are made by assembling food substances, mostly commodity ingredients, and “cosmetic” additives, such as color and emulsifiers, through a series of industrial processes.
