Cardiologists Highlight Heart Risks Linked to Regular Ultra-Processed Food ConsumptionPreviousNext

Cardiologists warn that regular consumption of ultra-processed foods, even in small amounts like 100 grams daily, can increase risks of cardiovascular events, hypertension, and metabolic issues. These foods, often low in fiber and high in sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats, contribute to weight gain, high blood pressure, and insulin resistance. Experts highlight growing heart health concerns among younger adults in India, linking dietary shifts and sedentary lifestyles to rising cardiovascular risks.
