  • UPF? Ultra Processed Food? If so we don't eat any. We have quit touching those turds a few years ago and never looked back. Food as well as beverage.

    Edit: We used to eat a lot of that, me more than my spouse and people just can't imagine the impact quitting that had on our health (more so on my own and on my and my weight). That and starting to walk a lot.

    • Thats great! have you noticed a change in your health since you cut all the UPFs out?

      • Not one change. Many. And important ones.

        • Important weight loss but I also started walking a lot. So, they should both be considered responsible.
        • Not being constantly hungry.
        • A lot more energy, less dizziness, a lot less headache.
        • Much better sleep.
        • Better sexual abilities, too.
        • Without going into too much personal details, I have been suffering from severe health issues for many years but after less than a year eating healthier food only (fresh and handmade), not changing any medication and treatment, all the doctors were so surprised by the change they made me to redo all the usual tests and exams and then added a few extra ones to make sure that was real and there was not something else going on. Years later, they're still impressed by that change (and how stable it has stayed so far).

        Simply put, I went from being an old wreck barely able to walk a few steps (fetching the mail at the door forced to rest for the rest of the day) to being an older but working person that is able to do almost anything I fancy. Nowadays, I take long daily walks without breaking a sweat and I enjoy those long walks so much I would feel bad not doing it ;)

        So yeah, as far as I'm concerned over-processed food can go fuck themselves: I see those exactly as I see cigarettes and alcohol which are two other things I had to get rid of in my life, btw.
