Here’s the gist in bullet form from your text:
-
Processed meats (cold cuts, sausages, bacon): High in sodium, saturated fats, nitrites/nitrates → ↑ cardiovascular risk + linked to colorectal cancer.
-
Sugary drinks (soft drinks, industrial juices): Contain excessive sugar → abdominal fat, insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, ↑ triglycerides; “light/natural” drinks may hide sugars or sweeteners.
-
Trans fats (pastries, snacks, margarines): Raise LDL, lower HDL, cause vessel inflammation; still present in many ultra-processed foods despite bans.
-
White bread & refined flours: Cause blood sugar spikes → arterial damage, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, heart disease; better to choose whole grains/legumes.
-
Excess salt: Leads to fluid retention, high blood pressure, vessel damage, heart overload; most sodium comes from processed/pre-cooked foods, not the salt shaker.
