Study finds that consuming ultra-processed foods raises the risk of mortality from chronic respiratory diseases.

Eating too much ultra-processed food may increase risk of chronic lung disease death

A large study suggests a link between high consumption of ultra-processed foods and a higher risk of dying from chronic respiratory diseases. Published in the European Journal of Nutrition, the research followed over 96,000 people in the US for nearly 20 years.

The study found people who ate the most ultra-processed foods (more than 40% of their diet) had:

  • 26% higher risk of death from COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)
  • 10% higher overall risk of death from chronic respiratory diseases, including lung cancer, asthma, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema

People who ate the most ultra-processed foods were also typically younger, had a higher Body Mass Index (BMI), and were more likely to have diabetes, emphysema, and high blood pressure. These factors can also contribute to respiratory problems.

Examples of ultra-processed foods include sugary drinks, packaged snacks, processed meats, and fried fast food. Researchers believe the preservatives and additives in these foods may increase inflammation in the body, worsening respiratory conditions.

This study highlights the potential benefits of limiting ultra-processed foods for lung health. Further research is needed to understand exactly how diet affects respiratory health.
