Health experts and toxicologists frequently recommend avoiding several specific food additives commonly found in ultra-processed grocery items. Chief among these are artificial trans fats (partially hydrogenated oils), which drastically raise bad cholesterol and heart disease risks; high-fructose corn syrup, linked to metabolic syndrome and obesity; artificial food dyes like Red 40 and Yellow 5, associated with hyperactivity in children; chemical preservatives like BHA, BHT, and sodium benzoate; and excessive artificial sweeteners.
