Controversy continues around classifying foods based on variable criteria that incorporate some degree of food processing and characteristics related to food formulation. Processed foods are in the news, on social media, and debated across the globe. Health-related characteristics of processed foods continue to dominate discussions from consumers to policy makers.
But the science landscape is not stagnant. Research is continuing. This event provided an updated view of the scientific landscape on processed foods and connect attendees with research consortia that are working to advance science and benefit public health. With science and evidence, all stakeholders can continue to revise and strengthen their approach.
