On the most exhausting days when you’re in need of a serious energy boost, it can obviously be tempting to continuously reach for a cup of coffee throughout the day.

You’ve likely heard health experts say that eating whole foods and skipping processed foods is a key to optimal health. A December 2022 study, for example, presented a pretty scary statistic linking ultra-processed foods to cognitive decline, saying that people who ate more than 20% of their daily calories from processed foods had a 28% faster decline in global cognition and a 25 % faster decline in executive functioning, compared with people who ate less than 20%.
If you’re wondering what an “ultra-processed” food is, you’re not alone. It’s a complicated topic.
