Sensible comments here by my pal and colleague Eszter Vamos PHPE Unit Imperial School of Public Health theguardian.com/society/2023/j… 'available evidence on the harmful effects of high UPF intakes in children is too strong to ignore'

📢Sharing our new policy report on #UltraProcessedFoods in the diets of 👶👦👧 in the UK. Concerningly we find that #UPFs exist in all commercial baby & toddler food categories & among foods targeted at pre-schoolers. See firststepsnutrition.org/childrens-food… #BabyFood #ChildHealth #Nutrition

My book Ultra-Processed People is published today.
It’s about how UPF affects our bodies and the planet, and what you can do about it.
If you struggle with eating - remember, it’s not you, it’s the food. Order here waterstones.com/book/ultra-pro…
