Ultra-processed foods: how functional is the NOVA system?

Veronique Braesco et al.

Summary: The study found that while some foods were consistently assigned to specific NOVA groups, overall consistency among evaluators was low, even when ingredient information was provided. This suggests that the current criteria in the NOVA classification system may not allow for robust and functional food assignments.

Greater Ultra-Processed Food Intake during Pregnancy and Postpartum Is Associated with Multiple Aspects of Lower Diet Quality

Tonja R. Nansel et al.

Summary: Low quality diet during pregnancy and postpartum can lead to negative health outcomes for both mothers and infants. This study examined the association between intake of ultra-processed foods and diet quality during pregnancy and postpartum. The findings suggest that reducing intake of ultra-processed foods can improve adherence to dietary guidelines in pregnant and postpartum populations.

The associations between maternal and child diet quality and child ADHD - findings from a large Norwegian pregnancy cohort study

Tiril Cecilie Borge et al.

Summary: This study found associations between maternal diet quality during pregnancy and child ADHD symptoms and diagnosis. Higher maternal diet quality was linked to lower ADHD symptom scores and risk of diagnosis, while no significant associations were found for child diet quality. Causal inferences should be made cautiously due to potential unmeasured confounding.

Associations between Dietary Patterns and Inflammatory Markers during Pregnancy: A Systematic Review

Kuan-Lin Yeh et al.

Summary: Elevated inflammation during pregnancy is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes and future chronic disease susceptibility. Studies have shown that maternal dietary patterns characterized by high animal protein, cholesterol, and/or low fiber intake are linked to certain pro-inflammatory markers. Future research should explore a wider range of inflammatory markers, reduce measurement errors, and ensure adequate statistical adjustment.

A Multidisciplinary Perspective of Ultra-Processed Foods and Associated Food Processing Technologies: A View of the Sustainable Road Ahead

Francesco Capozzi et al.

Summary: Ultra-processed foods are negatively perceived by some and have been linked to adverse health outcomes in observational surveys. While specific food processing techniques and their impact on health outcomes remain unclear, evolving technologies offer potential for creating novel, low-cost ultra-processed foods with improved nutritional value. New paradigms for food evaluation and classification systems should be developed based on digital technologies and artificial intelligence, incorporating processing aspects and personalization of foods and diets, while also considering recycling and sustainability. Collaboration between academia and industry is crucial for addressing the complexity and scale of these tasks.

Ultra-processed foods consumption and diet quality of European children, adolescents and adults: Results from the I.Family study

Fabio Lauria et al.

Summary: The study found that a large proportion of daily energy intake in European children, adolescents, and adults came from ultra-processed foods (UPFs), especially in children and adolescents. Higher consumption of UPFs was associated with a lower quality of the diet.

Ultra-processed foods increase noncommunicable chronic disease risk

Mariana Zogbi Jardim et al.

Summary: This study found that high consumption of ultra-processed foods and drinks (UPFD) is closely associated with obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia, while consumption of natural foods and minimally processed foods may have a protective effect. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the intake of UPFD in order to improve dietary quality and reduce the incidence of NCDs.

Gut Microbiota Differences According to Ultra-Processed Food Consumption in a Spanish Population

Amanda Cuevas-Sierra et al.

Summary: The consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) may have varying effects on gut microbiota composition in women and men, leading to changes in the abundance of certain bacteria. This study highlights the importance of considering sex differences in the impact of UPFs on microbiota diversity and profile.
