The Scary Connection Between Ultra-Processed Foods, Sugar, and Cancer, Doctor Reveals – Here’s exactly how the foods we eat are driving chronic disease. Whether you’re munching on salty snacks or sugary treats, it’s no news that any type of processed food isn’t great for your waistline—especially if you’re eating it in place of fresh fruits and vegetables or other healthy foods like legumes and nuts. However, what’s even more concerning is processed foods’ ability to wreak major havoc on your health later down the line. In Metabolical, which recently debuted in bookstores everywhere, Robert H. Lustig, MD, MDL, a pediatric neuroendocrinologist, exposes the many ugly truths of our current food system and modern medicine. He dives into the depths of eight pathologies within cells that belie all chronic disease, arguing that drugs aren’t an adequate solution for prevention or treatment. Instead, Lustig demonstrates how the food we eat is the real cure—and enemy—for non-communicable diseases. (from Eat This, Not That!)

That is 8,649 more than in 2019 and a 26 percent increase over the average number of deaths recorded annually between 2015 and 2019. (from Eurasianet)
