Ultra-Processed Foods can cause cancer?

This study is far from the first to link processed foods with an increased cancer risk. In February 2023, another study from the Imperial School of Public Health linked UPFs with a greater risk of developing cancer overall, including breast and ovarian cancer.

For Head and Neck Cancer, the risk was 23% higher, and esophageal cancer was 24% higher.

“Our bodies may not react the same way to these ultra-processed ingredients and additives as they do to fresh and nutritious minimally processed foods,” said Kiara Chang, PhD, the study’s first author.

“However, ultra-processed foods are everywhere and highly marketed with cheap prices and attractive packaging to promote consumption,” she continued. “This shows our food environment needs urgent reform to protect the population from ultra-processed foods.”

Research has also linked processed meat products with an increased risk of colorectal cancer and prostate cancer. The World Health Organization even categorizes products like bacon, sausages, and ham as a Group One carcinogen.

Dr Sarah Jenkins exclusively tells us why we should be wary of placenta pills. "On review of the literature about the benefits of consuming your placenta, Human Placentophagy, there is no evidence to say this practice is beneficial," Dr Sarah says. "In the UK we screen all pregnant women for strep B and treat both newborns and women in hospital with IV antibiotics immediately after birth, as we consider this a very severe infection which is known to kill if not treated postpartum."
