A study presented at the American College of Cardiology conference found that people consuming more than nine servings daily of ultra-processed foods had a 67% higher risk of heart attack, stroke, or cardiac death compared to those eating one serving daily. The increased risk persisted even after accounting for total calorie intake, overall diet quality, and common health conditions, with each additional daily serving raising the risk by over 5%.
