He points to studies linking UPFs to obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Alarmingly, around 60% of children’s calories come from UPFs, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. What’s less clear is which UPFs cause harm, why they do so and what the federal government should do about it. Amid this debate, I decided to launch a bold experiment with my then 8-year-old daughter: We would try to stop eating all UPFs for one month. Could we do it? Would our bodies and brains notice a difference?
