Carlos Monteiro, Camila Corvalán, and Phil Baker on Ultra-Processed Foods and Human Health

Ultra-processed foods are on the rise. Despite the emphasis placed on individual responsibility, our deteriorating diets are primarily the result of the sophisticated political tactics of a powerful global ultra-processed food industry. Addressing this urgent threat demands a coordinated response from the global public health community. So argues a 3-paper Series published in The Lancet that examines the evidence, proposes policies to halt and reverse the rise in ultra-processed foods, and illuminates the fundamental political and economic drivers at play. Professor Carlos Monterio, Professor Camila Corvalán, and Professor Phil Baker join host Callam Davidson to discuss this powerful and timely Series.
