Be Proactive on Ultraprocessed Foods Discussions, Actions
Description
Rocco Renaldi, secretary general of the International Food & Beverage Alliance (IFBA), discusses the movement toward defining foods on the processing spectrum from “not processed” to “ultraprocessed,” and how the challenges run deeper than the superficial labels that currently exist.
In addition, Renaldi shares his ideas for how the industry can work together with science and find a way forward that not only properly categorizes foods on this spectrum, but also works to make more healthy, fresh foods more affordable and accessible for communities and consumers who need them most.
