A study has found that a diet consisting of minimally processed foods may lead to greater weight loss than one that includes ultra-processed foods. The research suggests that this holds true even when the ultra-processed foods are considered healthy, with some findings indicating that minimally processed diets can result in twice as much weight loss. The study's results imply that avoiding ultra-processed foods and opting for home-cooked, minimally processed meals may be beneficial for weight loss.
