Ultraprocessed foods can cause metabolic havoc, says former FDA Commissioner David Kessler. “They target the brain reward circuits that keep us coming back for more. They trigger overeating. They deprive us of any sense of fullness,” he explains. “Those calories are not just empty. They're ending up in your liver, and that fat in your liver is going to migrate into other organs. And it's the cause of cardiometabolic disease,” Kessler adds. #health #ultraprocessed #fda #diet
