    Pretty much anything that isn’t in the meat, produce and milk areas. If it’s premade from a big corp, it’s bad for you.

    Edit: Also, this…

    A small but landmark randomized controlled study in 2019, led by the National Institutes of Health’s nutrition expert, Kevin Hall, found that when inpatient trial participants received diets with ultra-processed foods, they ate roughly 500 extra calories a day compared to a control group of inpatient participants who were served a diet that was matched in macronutrients but did not include ultra-processed foods.

      Also, almost all sausages and other processed meats are considered ultraprocessed. Let’s not even consider vegan “meats”. For proteins you can essentially only eat chicken and eggs (though these obviously contain harmful antibiotics), and steak ( but red meat cause cancer).

      This is why it’s so important to do more research to find out which processes and additives are harmful and which are not, so we can better distinguish between harmful and safe food.

        I can’t touch vegan hamburgers unless I take a benedryl with it. I’m 100% in with your suggestion we do a lot of research for ourselves. If I eat poorly, it’s not just the allergies, I get down in the dumps. I always wonder if the food quality is making some people (not all, of course, but some) have a low quality of mental energy and mild depression.
