Ultra-processed foods and mortality: analysis from the Prospective Urban and Rural Epidemiology study

Background: Higher intake of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) has been associated with increased risk of CVD and mortality in observational studies from Western countries but data from non-Western countries are limited. Objectives: We aimed to assess the association between consumption of UPFs and risk of mortality and major CVD in a cohort from multiple world regions. Design: This analysis includes 138,076 participants without a history of CVD between the ages of 35 and 70 y living on 5 continents, with a median follow-up of 10.2 y. We used country-specific validated food-frequency questionnaires to determine individuals' food intake. We classified foods and beverages based on the NOVA classification into UPFs. The primary outcome was total mortality (CV and non-CV mortality) and secondary outcomes were incident major cardiovascular events. We calculated hazard ratios using multivariable Cox frailty models and evaluated the association of UPFs with total mortality, CV mortality, non-CV mortality, and major CVD events. Results: In this study, 9227 deaths and 7934 major cardiovascular events were recorded during the follow-up period. We found a diet high in UPFs (>= 2 servings/d compared with 0 intake) was associated with higher risk of mortality (HR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.15, 1.42, P-trend < 0.001), CV mortality (HR:1.17, 95% CI: 0.98, 1.41, P-trend = 0.04), and non-CV mortality (HR: 1.32, 95% CI 1.17, 1.50, P-trend < 0.001). We did not find a significant as-sociation between UPF intake and risk of major CVD. Conclusions: A diet with a high intake of UPFs was associated with a higher risk of mortality in a diverse multinational study. Globally, limiting the consumption of UPFs should be encouraged.
