Consumption of ultra-processed foods and all-cause and cause-specific mortality in the Southern Community Cohort Study

The love for ultra-processed foods may increase diabetes mortality risk in men and women.

This study focused on the relationship between the intake of ultra-processed foods and the risk of dying from chronic diseases, such as diabetes. Researchers monitored dietary and mortality records obtained from over 75,000 men and women. 

Data analysis revealed that high dietary ingestion of ultra-processed foods heightened the risk of suffering from deaths resulting from complications of diabetes. This study concluded that habitual consumers of ultra-processed foods were liable to die prematurely from diabetes.
