It’ll be interesting to see if we can find more than a correlation. This ought to be a polymarket bet… But mine would be on either ultra processed foods or microplastics.

More than likely the ultra processed foods. So much shit added that other countries ban because it’s carcinogenic but not in the USA because it’s cheap and makes the line go up. Think it was a documentary that included the Oreos CEO who refused to eat their own product.

I saw a video where they talked about a bunch of studies about ultra processed foods, and the top 3 worst foods for health were (iiirc)

Processed meats like bacon and hotdogs

Sugary drinks

Sugary baked goods

Those 3 were like 99% of the danger of processed foods.
