Here’s something to process that may be hard to digest: highly processed foods, including soft drinks and most cereals, are both addictive AND linked to an increased risk of cancer!
This is the takeaway from two recent studies.
The University of Michigan National Poll on Healthy Aging asked Americans between the ages of fifty and eighty about their symptoms of addiction to highly processed foods. They found that FORTY-FOUR percent indicated at least one symptom, with the most common being “intense cravings” and “inability to cut down despite a desire to do so.”
And now, a study from Imperial College London has found an association between consumption of these foods and cancer. Specifically, for every ten percent increase of ultra-processed foods in a person’s diet, there was a two percent increase in incidences of cancer!
