Nisu sve loše: Ovih pet ultra-prerađenih namirnica možete slobodno nastaviti da kupujete
Ultra-prerađena hrana na lošem je glasu već duže vreme. Istraživanja su je dovela u vezu sa većim rizikom od različitih zdravstvenih problema, poput raka, bolesti srca i dijabetesa tipa 2. Zbog toga ne čudi što mnogi brinu o tome koliko je konzumiraju – posebno ako se zna da u proseku čini gotovo 60 odsto našeg dnevnog kalorijskog unosa, navodi nutricionistkinja za BBC.
TL;DR
- Ultra-processed foods are linked to increased risks of cancer, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.
- The science behind how ultra-processed foods affect health is still unclear.
- The definition of ultra-processed food is based on the degree of processing, not nutritional value, including items like whole grain bread and canned beans.
- Reducing consumption of ultra-processed foods, instead of complete elimination, is a more achievable and beneficial strategy.
- Examples of ultra-processed foods that can be included in a weekly shop are whole grain bread, whole grain cereals, jarred pasta sauces, hummus, and fruit-flavored kefir.
- Focus on reducing intake of ultra-processed foods high in fat, sugar, and salt, rather than avoiding nutritious options like canned beans or whole grain products.
