Consumption of ultra-processed foods and multiple health outcomes: An umbrella study of meta-analyses

Likeness for ultra-processed foods may bump up an individual's risk of suffering from chronic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension.

This study seeks to obtain further evidence linking the intake of ultra-processed foods with the development of chronic diseases. Researchers performed a thorough analysis of data and evidence drawn out from 61 studies. 

Researchers found out that ardent consumption of ultra-processed foods correlated with high prevalence of chronic diseases, such as obesity, hypertension, and diabetes. This study provided additional evidence that a high ultra-processed food diet may promote the development of different chronic diseases.
