And, since cardiovascular diseases are our leading killers, it also makes sense that excess intake of ultra-processed foods could lead to increased overall mortality.

Instead of focusing solely on prevention, he insists, we must invest in treatments that can swiftly weaken a virus once it has entered the body, reducing both the severity and duration of illness.
