潜水简介：
- French researcherspublished a study Monday在JAMA内科杂志中，发现每年10％的10％增加，少量加工食品消费者吃，早期死亡风险较高的14％。
- The study also found that consumption of ultra-processed foods has increased significantly over the last several decades to now more than 29% of total calories consumed. Most of these foods are ingested as snacks, desserts or ready-to-eat meals. Higher processed food consumption was linked to younger ages, lower incomes, lower educational levels, living alone, higher BMIs and lower physical activity levels.
- 研究人员使用了44,551名法国成年人45岁及以上两年来进行这项研究。所有这些都每六个月给24小时饮食记录，并完成了对健康的问卷。该研究的作者称，需要进一步的研究来确认这些结果。
Dive Insight:
In recent years, processed foods have gained a bad rap as consumers grow more wary of unpronounceable ingredients. The movement has gained such steam that now, 91% of U.S. consumers believe food and beverage options with recognizable ingredients are healthier,根据Innova.。
但这并不意味着人们不仍然indulge. There are plenty of edible options available that contain high percentages of additives used for technological or cosmetic purposes — including emulsifiers, preservatives and saturated fat. With consumers finding themselves ever more pressed for time, it can be tempting to just reach for an easy, packaged meal rather than taking the time to cook in the kitchen. The result is an increased incidence of noncommunicable diseases, like obesity, which hasjumped considerably在过去的25年里。
尽管如此，作为第一项研究直接与早期死亡率，其他科学家和研究人员比较加工食品told CNN从研究中难以得出坚实的结论。他们发现这是因为“超级加工”食品类别如此大的事实，从包汤到巧克力棒。
尽管如此，这些结果似乎符合几十年的政府和监管机构。事实上，早在2014年，一些拉丁美洲国家非常认真地对待高度加工食品的威胁，他们制定了一个新的标签系统，如果产品含糖，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐，盐卡路里或脂肪。Chile also went as far as to ban advertising unhealthy products to children。在美国，食品和药物管理局发布变更在2020年和2021年生效的营养事实标签上。
While this study is significant, others will need to replicate the findings for them to have a widespread ripple effect within food manufacturing. This study did not include research on young people. Out of the 44,551 French adults that were monitored, the average age was 57 and nearly 73% of the participants were women.
此次研究表明，消费者对包装食品与长期对健康影响之间的联系变得好奇，因此CPG公司应该注意。已经，some strides toward less processing have been made由制造商。一个重大变化是溢价和清洁包装which allows consumers to see what the food or beverage itself looks like while boosting theperception of a brand's transparency。
味道仍然是国王，特别是对于小吃，往往是高度处理的。一种放大零食品牌的研究- 现在是Hershey的一部分 - 发现89％的千禧一代表示，他们首先想要一个味道的零食。对于改变来，消费者和政府将在他们对CPG公司的压力下保持不懈的，以创造不仅减少有害化学品和添加剂的数量，而且保持吸引人的味觉概况。
