We won’t treat cancer with paracetamol and we won’t solve all nutrition issues with UPFs…. Let’s move from proxies to root causes!

Every issue on nutrition science in one post! Nutrition has been based on epidemiological proxies for far too long! It’s a deeply imprecise science and we ought to fight for precision moving ahead and using technological advances. Mid 60s epi techniques won’t provide answers!!!

What we fail to remember is that a proxy is not an intervention target. A proxy means that if I had only one question, UPFs consumption would most likely be the one to describe eating habits, weight status, SES etc. like fever and being ill!

@ggkuhnle @TamarHaspel Agreed for some reason the upf argument goes hand in hand with the argument that crappy food at home, street vendors etc it’s ok! As if food behaviour is not universal! Also when will nutrition stop relying on epidemiological proxies!!!

@TamarHaspel The pictures shows exactly the opposite though - it confirms that it's composition and not processing.

Why ultra-processed foods are bad, in one picture. It's not emulsifiers or the additives or the processing per se. It's because processing has mostly been used to create crappy-ish foods that you can't resist.

@TamarHaspel The picture shows two non overlapping areas! The argument that a bad proxy is ok means that for some reason it’s ok to be biased in favour of the right hand side… nutrition science is full of crappy proxies it’s time we opt for precision rather than fancy crappy proxies

Do we know what a highly processed food really looks like? Maybe yes but it means different things to difference people. Read below why this is important! How we apply those systems will also change what they tell us about diet and health per our data: mdpi.com/2304-8158/13/8…

Great chance to discuss UPFs!
Yogurt in Nutrition@YogurtNutrition

During the 14th EFAD (European Federation of Association of Dieteticians) Congress we talked with @AntonisVls about how the definition of UPF covers 70% of the food you will find in supermarkets and how consumers can find interesting products checking other aspects, in particular the nutritional composition.
