Today, we attended the Food Drink Partnership Days 2026, an industry-led conference in Brussels, to discuss the health risks posed by ultra-processed foods #UPFs. 🧃
📢 We say loud and clear: public concern about the negative health impact of UPFs is NOT irrational, it is based on abundant science.
It really is a shame that RFK Jr. *could* have – given his stated interests – been a force of good in this country. Had he only used his position to reign in ultra-processed foods or #UPFs, he would’ve had a hand in saving countless lives…

🚨 Ultra-processed foods are engineered for repeat consumption. New evidence shows #UPFs rapidly deliver ingredients that reinforce cravings, strengthening the case for warning labels, health taxes and marketing restrictions to create healthier food environments. https://vitalstrat.org/4rqYuHd
⚠️ “Ultra-processed foods should be treated more like #cigarettes than #food” – study
#UPFs are made to encourage #addiction and consumption and should be regulated like #tobacco, say researchers from Harvard, the University of Michigan and Duke University.

#UPFs contribute to multiple adverse health outcomes, but that didn’t slow down the US appetite for junk food. Oatmeal was considered old fashioned--see the Quaker image on the box; dry cereals, in every rainbow color, quickly took over the breakfast table. No cooking; saves time. Costs lives.
Last week in India, our President Simón Barquera shared lessons from Mexico’s public health action - from food warning labels to SSB & UPF taxes - drawing on evidence from the Lancet UPF Series (published last year).

Ultra-processed foods – what’s the impact?
In a Lancet Series, experts warn a global rise in #UPFs presents a growing public health threat.
Read the evidence & policy recommendations ⬇️

1️⃣The European Commission's Plan for #CardiovascularHealth falls short of protecting public health. We are disappointed that the current proposal refuses to put forward any mandatory taxes or levies on #UPFs. Cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death in the EU.
2️⃣ Ultra-processed foods #UPFs are one of the main drivers of cardiovascular diseases and non-communicable diseases - #NCDs. We call for mandatory taxes on UPFs, targeting production and imports, based on maximum limits of UPF-linked additives and ingredients.
