Fascinating review by Fardet ! Well worth the read! I absolutely agree that ultra-processing is a holistic issue and should be treated as such. However, food policies like taxes might benefit from the evidence on specific food groups to avoid broadening food inequalities.

Excellent report from IPES-FOOD on the value of territorial markets 'as a cornerstone of healthy, affordable foods and dietary diversity, and as a buffer against ultra-processed foods (especially in countries being targeted for their expansion).' ipes-food.org/report/food-fr…

Accounting for the level of processing in food classification systems for food policy purposes is key to achieving desired outcomes! Here are 4 ways in which the Health Star Rating system could be modified👇

This is unacceptable! Governments must act to address these issues with mandatory food and nutrition policies and regulations! And must ensure monitoring systems are in place to capture any britches to these regulations!

🇧🇷 Brazil’s fiscal policies should support health. Health taxes on sweet drinks & other ultraprocessed foods to fund low-income Brazilians's access to whole foods is an option. New study Food Policy led by Paula Pereda shows how this enhances equity. doi.org/10.1016/j.food…
