Amanda's Wellbeing Podcast - Processed Foods

"Eat less processed food" - you hear it all the time. Today I discuss what that really means.
Some forms of processing, like freezing, to increase shelf life is not necessarily a bad thing. The problems lie with ultra-processing where multiple ingredients like fats, sugars and starches are mixed with other substances e.g. artificial colouring and flavourings to come up with some palatable food-like product. This ultra-processed "food" (if you can even call it that) is not health-promoting.
