Article Synopsis
  • A study analyzed how Canadians consumed ultra-processed foods (UPF) using data from the 2015 Canadian Community Health Survey, which involved a 24-hour dietary recall.
  • Findings showed that UPF accounted for about 44.9% of Canadians' daily energy intake, with children and adolescents consuming over half of their energy from these foods.
  • Results indicated that non-immigrants and those living in food-insecure households had higher UPF consumption levels, suggesting that public health interventions should target these groups to encourage healthier diets.
