ANTWERPEN - Of course you already know that ultra-processed food is not the healthiest choice. Yet you probably eat it far more often than you think (yes, even that healthy-looking jar of humus is ultra-processed), and that may be becoming a problem. After all, scientific research is increasingly convincingly linking ultra-processed food and drink to all sorts of serious health problems, from cardiovascular disease to mental disorders.
Journalist Eva Kestemont eliminated all factory foods from her menu for a month and made some disturbing but also some hopeful discoveries. For example, ultra-processed food turned out to be a fantastic starting point for thinking about the world of tomorrow. Does this food deserve a place in that, and if so, what should it look like? Or do we just want to do without it altogether? What should we expect from the government and the food industry itself? And above all, how can more enjoyment of food help build a sustainable future?
Improved Recipe is an optimistic book with accessible infographics and simple recipes for anyone who produces food, makes decisions about food or eats at all once in a while themselves.
