Ultraprzetworzona żywność (UPF) to spożywcze produkty przemysłowe składające się z więcej niż pięciu składników i zawierające emulgatory, konserwanty, barwniki czy utwardzone oleje.
Każdy wzrost udziału UPF o 10% w codziennej diecie podnosi wynik w skali ryzyka demencji o 0,24 punktu.

Brain Changes Linked to Ultraprocessed Foods, Even in Otherwise Healthy Diets
— Food processing itself may influence cognitive health, study suggests
• A 10% increase in ultraprocessed food intake was tied to lower attention scores and greater dementia risk in a cross-sectional study.
• The relationships persisted even in people who followed a Mediterranean diet.
• No relationship emerged between ultraprocessed food intake and memory scores.

How worried should you be about ultra-processed foods?

We are constantly told to watch out for the health risks of eating ultra-processed food, but should you be worried every time you sit down for a meal?

App voor ultra-bewerkt voedsel

"de PureScore: een wetenschappelijk gevalideerde scoringsmethode die per product inzicht geeft in de mate van bewerking. De PureScore is te raadplegen via de gratis FLTRD-app."

"De PureScore laat zien hoe bewerkt een product is, gebaseerd op ingrediënten en bewerkingstechnieken. Met deze app kunnen consumenten producten scannen tijdens het boodschappen doen en direct zien hoe bewerkt een product is. De PureScore geeft voedingsmiddelen een score van 0 (ultrabewerkt) tot 100 (onbewerkt)."

"De PureScore beoordeelt producten op 3 componenten die samen de score bepalen:
- Bewerkingstechnieken
[…] Hoe intensiever de bewerking, hoe lager de score.
- Ingrediënten
Type en hoeveelheid van toegevoegde suikers, vetten, zout en additieven. Ook geraffineerde ingrediënten waarbij voedingsstoffen zijn verwijderd, verlagen de score.
- Biologische certificering
Biologische producten scoren hoger omdat ze minder pesticiden bevatten. "

"Veel mensen willen vandaag al minder bewerkt eten, maar ingrediëntenlijsten ontcijferen in de supermarkt is bijna niet te doen’, zegt Anke Kuik, medeoprichter van FLTRD. ‘Met de PureScore maken we de gezonde keuze een stuk makkelijker."

https://www.nieuwsvoordietisten.nl/nieuwe-scoringsmethode-voor-ultra-bewerkt-voedsel/

"Nu live op iPhone. Android komt eraan. Schrijf je onderaan de pagina in voor de nieuwsbrief en hoor als eerste wanneer de Android versie lanceert."

"Met FLTRD zie je in één seconde hoe (on)bewerkt een product is én vind je eenvoudig gezondere alternatieven."

"Scan en check de PureScore"

Eine neue Studie legt nahe, dass dem nicht so ist.

Ultrahochverarbeitete Lebensmittel scheinen unser Bedürfnis nach Mikronährstoffen stark anzusprechen und jubeln uns nebenbei jede Menge Kalorien unter.

Palm Oil Free Cooking Oil, Margarine and Spreads

Are you an avid lover of #Nutella and other spreadable butters and #margarines? Consider that many popular brands come tarnished with dirty #palmoil. Why is palm oil dirty? It has destroyed millions of hectares of rainforests all over the world. Firstly in SE Asia and increasingly now in Africa, South and Central America as well as India. Wild animals and indigenous peoples suffer the most. Here’s a helpful guide so that you can AVOID the major supermarket brands and still enjoy your hit of nut butter and chocolate spread WITHOUT Nutella.

By choosing locally produced cooking oils such as olive, sesame or peanut oil and by making your own foods instead of buying convenience foods you’re doing your health and the animals a favour. If you are ever in doubt look for the prefixes: LAUR, STEAR, GYLC and PALM in the ingredients list on packaging – this is most likely palm oil. Take action and buy #PalmOilFree #Vegan and #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife

https://youtu.be/bXvXNuKkVsk

DYK that #Nutella by #Ferrero contains forest-destroying #palmoil? Help #animals and #indigenous peoples by going #palmoilfree with your nut butters and cooking oil. Resist and #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife 🌴🔥🫢⛔️ learn more palmoildetect ➡️ https://palmoildetectives.com/2021/02/11/palm-oil-free-cooking-oil-margarine-and-spreads/

Here’s some nut #butter 🥜 #margarine and #cooking – free from #palmoil. Always buy #palmoilfree! As consuming palm oil is linked to human #health problems like #stroke and #heartattack. Please #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife 🌴🔥🛢️⛔ learn more https://palmoildetectives.com/2021/02/11/palm-oil-free-cooking-oil-margarine-and-spreads/

Palm oil is one of the world’s most destructive crops, as it can only be harvested in tropical rainforest and peatland landscapes where the highest concentration of endangered species live. The majority of palm oil and soy is fed to farm animals that people eat. This is why palm oil is an animal rights issue. And it is for these reasons that palm oil is NOT considered vegan by animal activists. It may be a plant-based substance, but it is NOT VEGAN. Convenience food mega-brands that make spreads and margarines like Mondelez, Nestle, Danone, CocaCola, Pepsi, Hersheys and Ferrero claim that the palm oil they use is vegan. Yet all palm oil is linked to greenwashing, extinction and ecocide!

Companies should give the people what they want – palm oil free!

Research finds that palm oil free labelling encourages more people to purchase these products

“The perceived effects of palm oil on health have the strongest influence on consumption intent, followed by environmental damage caused by palm oil production…Our research suggests that companies developing palm oil-free products could benefit from a label on the product stating their palm oil-free nature.”

Plasek B, Lakner Z, Badak-Kerti K, Kovács A, Temesi Á. Perceived Consequences: General or Specific? The Case of Palm Oil-Free Products. Sustainability. 2021; 13(6):3550. https://doi.org/10.3390/su13063550

“Results revealed that consumer exposed to the ‘palm oil free’ products showed a lower risk perception compared to those exposed to the ‘with sustainable palm oil’ products and to products without claim. Moreover, the product evaluation was better in the ‘palm oil free’ condition compared to the “with sustainable palm oil” condition”

Vergura, Donata Tania & Zerbini, Cristina & Luceri, Beatrice. (2019). “Palm oil free” vs “sustainable palm oil”: the impact of claims on consumer perception. British Food Journal. DOI:10.1108/BFJ-01-2019-0020

“Products with a free-from label were considered healthier than products without such a label, with the strongest effects occurring for labels indicating that products were free of GMOs and free of palm oil.”
