Nine servings of ultra-processed foods each day increases your risk of dying from heart attack, stroke and heart disease by 67 percent, according to a new analysis of thousands of Americans’ health data.
Each additional serving of salty, fatty or sugary food each day raises the risk of life-threatening conditions by around 5 percent, the American College of Cardiology reported Tuesday. People in the study had been eating this way for more than a decade, with data collected between 2000 and 2012, according to the report.
