Recap: How ultra-processed food impacts your brain | Prof. Felice Jacka

20 May 2025

Description

Today we’re exploring the impact that ultra-processed foods have on our brain. We often think of nutrition in terms of physical health - things like obesity, heart disease, or diabetes. However, what we eat also plays a crucial role in our mental health, influencing mood, cognition, and even our risk for conditions like depression. So, what can we learn from the studies that have looked into the connection between food and thought? I’m joined by world-leading Professor of Nutritional Psychiatry Felice Jacka to explore this fascinating link and discuss how we can make smarter food choices to keep our minds sharp and healthy. 🥑 Make smarter food choices.
