BITESIZE | Why You Can’t Stop Eating Ultra-Processed Foods | Dr Chris Van Tulleken

by Dr. Rangan Chatterjee   /  September 27, 2024

Here in the UK, ultra-processed food makes up 60 percent of the average diet.  The trouble is, says today’s guest, UPFs have been shown to be the leading cause of early death in the world, ahead of tobacco.

Today’s clip is from episode 414 of the podcast with Dr Chris van Tulleken. Chris is a practising infectious diseases doctor, one of the UK’s leading science broadcasters, and author of the book Ultra-Processed People.

Over consumption of ultra-processed foods may be the biggest public-health crisis of our time and, in this clip, he shares why he believes we eat stuff that isn’t really food and why can’t we stop.
