About ultra-processed food
Ultra-processed foods (UPF) are industrially manufactured food products, generally derived from natural food or synthesized from other organic compounds. The term is commonly associated with the Nova food classification system, which distinguishes UPFs from minimally processed and processed foods. UPFs are typically formulated to be convenient, shelf-stable, and hyperpalatable, often through the use of food additives such as preservatives, emulsifiers, colourings, and flavourings. UPFs typically undergo processes such as moulding, extrusion, hydrogenation, or frying. There is currently no commonly accepted definition of ultra-processed food by codex alimentarius and food regulators such as the European Food Safety Authority.
