More about the book

An event publication that promises to change how we eat, saving ourselves and the planet at the same time. Ultra-Processed People is a fast paced and eye-opening book which reveals the true cause of both obesity and poor health; ultra-processed food, or UPF. Van Tulleken delves into the science and economics of UPF, reframing obesity as a "commerciogenic disease" driven by an unregulated industry and caused by the consumption of knowingly harmful, addictive substances. It is not a diet book, but it may lead to weight loss; it is not an environmental treatise, but it will help the planet.
