But why? Yes, it\u2019s easy to overeat ultra-processed food because it\u2019s tasty. But if you count your calories and don\u2019t overeat, are ultra-processed foods still bad for you? In today's episode, we explore a new study that put people on either a diet consisting of ultra-processed foods or unprocessed foods. The researchers wanted to know a lot more than just if the participants would lose or gain fat weight, and they tested a lot of fascinating stuff, from sperm quality to phthalates (plastics) and lithium levels in their bodies. Let\u2019s break it all down! If you\u2019re interested in how the two diets looked, check out this pdf from the study. *** Do you like what you hear so far?
