Ultra-processed food corporation power is growing, & multi-stakeholderism is broadly accepted in global food governance. But who governs powerful multi-stakeholder institutions and what are their implications for UPF policy responses, governance & food system transformation? 👇🏼

Marion's blog recommended this book (free download) today, noting that it explains the resistance to the UPF concept not only from the food industry but also from some nutritionists. Marion is right (no surprise there)—it does. It's a must-read book! foodpolitics.com/2024/11/weeken…

A pleasure to speak last week with incredible colleagues on ultra-processed foods and what governments can do about this serious public health challenge. Drawing from our team's work, my talk focused on defining the problem, as largely a corporate and profit-driven one, and

Fundamentals of healthy and sustainable diets explained in terms of dietary: variety, balance and moderation, for dietary guidelines and food guides. With proposal to replace the vague term 'discretionary foods' with 'Ultra-processed foods'. See new paper-rdcu.be/d1U93

Brilliant explanation by Mark Lawrence on why limiting UPF intake should be an integral part of dietary guidelines to promote both public health and planetary sustainability.

Now with the right link. A long (historical) read on UPF, Nova, Nova-based dietary guidelines, and other accomplishments of our 35-year-old USP epi research center—and why these milestones were achieved outside the Global North. piaui.folha.uol.com.br/materia/carlos…

How long will the industry manage to keep regulations at bay? "..interventions are skewed towards informational measures to influence consumer choice .. These findings highlight an opportunity to broaden the scope and strength of UPF-related regulation" nature.com/articles/s4301…

The Novo Nordisk Foundation - which makes money from obesity drugs - is holding a meeting with food industry funded scientists to 'redefine' an unhealthy diet. This is bad for public health and more than 80 of the world's leading independent food scientists are calling for a boycott. 🧵

After 21 years at my dream job, I’m very sad to announce my early retirement from the National Institutes of Health. My life’s work has been to scientifically study how our food environment affects what we eat, and how what we eat affects our physiology. Lately, I’ve focused on
