Abstract in brief

  • The NOVA classification categorizes foods based on their processing levels, focusing on ultra-processed foods (UPFs) that contain industrial ingredients and additives for sensory modification.
  • The Siga classification expands on NOVA by introducing subgroups that assess the effects of processing, added nutrients, and the presence of harmful additives in various food items.
  • A study using the Siga algorithm on nearly 25,000 packaged foods found that two-thirds were ultra-processed, with certain categories, like salted meats and breakfast cereals, showing particularly high levels of UPFs.

@ScepticalDoctor @KevinH_PhD @ggkuhnle Being precise, UPF should not be identified thrue "traditional" ingredients but rather by MUPs.. Now, traditional ingredients is a good first way to advertise general public. Mangesium might not be one of them. I Never saw it in a kitchen cupboard.. https://t.co/ydTRX15gZV

@fenris1234 Hay 7 modelos, que yo sepa, pero este es el más aceptado. A mí los que más me convencen son NOVA y SIGA, pero de este último hay muy poca evidencia. https://t.co/1ulNBXyTuK
