You always do.
But that's likely not to be necessarily a direct effect of additives.
on cancer risk.
No.
It's likely to be the fact that the more ultra processed food you eat,
The more calories you eat, as we've seen from our first study, the more likely you are to be overweight, the more likely you are to have metabolic disturbances.
And we know that many cancers have uh increased risk if you are overweight, if you do have metabolic disturbances, if you are in a pro-inflammatory state.
Yes, this is one of my favourite studies.
It was published only the end of last year.
It's called the Restructure Study.
And this is a study conducted by scientist Kira Ford, based in the Netherlands.
And he wanted to pick up on some of the findings from that first study that we talked about, the study by Kevin Hall, that showed that there were differences in calorie intake and differences in how fast people were eating the food, depending on whether the food was minimally or ultra processed.
And so he did a randomised control trial where he recruited forty one participants to follow for two weeks a diet that was actually very ultra processed.
So about ninety five percent of their calories were coming from ultra processed foods.
But what he wanted to do was to tease apart
what is the impact that the texture and eating rate has?
in terms of how many calories we're consuming.
So you put all of these people on this highly processed diet.
And then he modified the texture in one of the diets so that it would encourage you to eat the food really fast.
So it was a very soft textured diet.
