Abstract in brief

Evidence indicates a link between the consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF) and increased risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and respiratory disease, as well as their co-occurrence (multimorbidity).
In a study using data from the UK Biobank, participants showed significant hazard ratios for developing diseases with a 10% rise in UPF intake, with the strongest association seen for CVD mortality.
Replacing 20% of UPF with unprocessed or minimally processed foods may reduce the risk of CVD, respiratory diseases, and their combined occurrence by significant percentages, suggesting dietary changes could be beneficial.
