1. The UN Decade of Nutrition, the NOVA food classification and the trouble with ultra-processing

   Carlos Augusto Monteiro, Geoffrey Cannon, Jean‐Claude Moubarac, et al. · 2017 · Public Health Nutrition · 2,276 cites

   Given evident multiple threats to food systems and supplies, food security, human health and welfare, the living and physical world and the biosphere, the years 2016-2025 are now designated by the UN as the Decade of Nutrition, in support of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. For these initiatives to succeed, it is necessary to know which foods contribute to health and well-being, and which are unhealthy. The present commentary outlines the NOVA system of food classification based on the nature, extent and purpose of food processing. Evidence that NOVA effectively addresses the quality of diets and their impact on all forms of malnutrition, and also the sustainability of food systems, has

2. Ultra‐processed foods and the nutrition transition: Global, regional and national trends, food systems transformations and political economy drivers

   Phillip Baker, Priscila Machado, Thiago M. Santos, et al. · 2020 · Obesity Reviews · 1,162 cites

   Understanding the drivers and dynamics of global ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption is essential, given the evidence linking these foods with adverse health outcomes. In this synthesis review, we take two steps. First, we quantify per capita volumes and trends in UPF sales, and ingredients (sweeteners, fats, sodium and cosmetic additives) supplied by these foods, in countries classified by income and region. Second, we review the literature on food systems and political economy factors that likely explain the observed changes. We find evidence for a substantial expansion in the types and quantities of UPFs sold worldwide, representing a transition towards a more processed global diet but

3. Consumption of ultra-processed foods and health status: a systematic review and meta-analysis

   Giuditta Pagliai, Monica Dinu, Maria Pia Madarena, et al. · 2020 · British Journal Of Nutrition · 1,039 cites

   Increasing evidence suggests that high consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF) is associated with an increase in non-communicable diseases, overweight and obesity. The present study systematically reviewed all observational studies that investigated the association between UPF consumption and health status. A comprehensive search of MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar was conducted, and reference lists of included articles were checked. Only cross-sectional and prospective cohort studies were included. At the end of the selection process, twenty-three studies (ten cross-sectional and thirteen prospective cohort studies) were included in the systematic review. As reg

4. Consumption of ultra-processed foods and cancer risk: results from NutriNet-Santé prospective cohort

   Thibault Fiolet, Bernard Srour, Laury Sellem, et al. · 2018 · BMJ · 1,015 cites

   OBJECTIVE: To assess the prospective associations between consumption of ultra-processed food and risk of cancer. DESIGN: Population based cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: 104 980 participants aged at least 18 years (median age 42.8 years) from the French NutriNet-Santé cohort (2009-17). Dietary intakes were collected using repeated 24 hour dietary records, designed to register participants' usual consumption for 3300 different food items. These were categorised according to their degree of processing by the NOVA classification. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Associations between ultra-processed food intake and risk of overall, breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer assessed by multivariable

5. Ultra-processed food intake and risk of cardiovascular disease: prospective cohort study (NutriNet-Santé)

   Bernard Srour, Léopold Fezeu, Emmanuelle Kesse‐Guyot, et al. · 2019 · BMJ · 921 cites

   OBJECTIVE: To assess the prospective associations between consumption of ultra-processed foods and risk of cardiovascular diseases. DESIGN: Population based cohort study. SETTING: NutriNet-Santé cohort, France 2009-18. PARTICIPANTS: 105 159 participants aged at least 18 years. Dietary intakes were collected using repeated 24 hour dietary records (5.7 for each participant on average), designed to register participants' usual consumption of 3300 food items. These foods were categorised using the NOVA classification according to degree of processing. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Associations between intake of ultra-processed food and overall risk of cardiovascular, coronary heart, and cerebrovascular

6. Ultra-processed food exposure and adverse health outcomes: umbrella review of epidemiological meta-analyses

   Melissa M. Lane, Elizabeth Gamage, Shutong Du, et al. · 2024 · BMJ · 775 cites

   OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the existing meta-analytic evidence of associations between exposure to ultra-processed foods, as defined by the Nova food classification system, and adverse health outcomes. DESIGN: Systematic umbrella review of existing meta-analyses. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Embase, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, as well as manual searches of reference lists from 2009 to June 2023. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR SELECTING STUDIES: Systematic reviews and meta-analyses of cohort, case-control, and/or cross sectional study designs. To evaluate the credibility of evidence, pre-specified evidence classification criteria were applied, graded as convincing ("class I"),

7. Association between consumption of ultra-processed foods and all cause mortality: SUN prospective cohort study

   Anaïs Rico-Campà, Miguel Ángel Martínez‐González, Ismael Álvarez‐Álvarez, et al. · 2019 · BMJ · 537 cites

   OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between consumption of ultra-processed foods and all cause mortality. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra (SUN) cohort of university graduates, Spain 1999-2018. PARTICIPANTS: 19 899 participants (12 113 women and 7786 men) aged 20-91 years followed-up every two years between December 1999 and February 2014 for food and drink consumption, classified according to the degree of processing by the NOVA classification, and evaluated through a validated 136 item food frequency questionnaire. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Association between consumption of energy adjusted ultra-processed foods categorised into quarters (low, lo

8. Consumption of ultra-processed foods and health outcomes: a systematic review of epidemiological studies

   Xiaojia Chen, Zhang Zhang, Huijie Yang, et al. · 2020 · Nutrition Journal · 512 cites

   BACKGROUND: Consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) plays a potential role in the development of obesity and other diet-related noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), but no studies have systematically focused on this. This study aimed to summarize the evidence for the association between UPFs consumption and health outcomes. METHODS: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science to identify all relevant studies. Epidemiological studies were included, and identified studies were evaluated for risk of bias.A narrative review of the synthesized findings was provided to assess the association between UPFs consumption and health outcomes. RESULTS: 20 studies (12 cohort
