Bottom-line:

  • So many patients and clients in PT are looking for weight loss. Some try fad diets while others attempt to stick to foods they know and enjoy, even if they are ultraprocessed.
  • Emerging research has shown the ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) could pose a health risk -- but how much and what health factors are affected?
  • In this research video update, we cover a new double crossed trial to look at the short term health effects. We also want to hear from you -- what have you seen in your practice or experience?
