Step away from the Coco Pops!Put down that spoon!Put away that bowl! Dr. Chris van Tulleken, a writer and associate professor, volunteered to the House of Lords select committee on food, diet, and obesity last week, recommending that it, as well as other "harmful" junk food, be stripped of health claims and barred from advertising. He was one of a number of experts who spoke to Parliament about the blight of junk food, especially when it comes to children. Dr. van Tulleken accused the mass-produced food industry of behaving in a similar manner to big tobacco in the sale of addictive drugs that could be harmful. It's a subject he's written about in his latest book Ultra-processed People: Why Do We Eat Stuff That Isn't Food, And Why Can't We Stop, which was serialized by the Daily Mail, and it exposes the traumatic health risks of junk food, heart disease, and cancer. 'The poor diet has overtaken tobacco as the leading cause of death globally,' he says, and an ultra-processed diet leads to an overcooked diet.'
