A study of almost 45,000 middle-aged people found that deaths from heart disease, cancer and other illnesses were linked to the consumption of ‘ultra-processed food’.
These include: chips, white bread, ready meals, sausages, sugary cereals and fizzy drinks – essentially any product involving an industrial procedure.
