California moves to curb ultra-processed foods in new health legislation

Original: California targets ultra-processed foods with sweeping new health legislation

California has introduced sweeping new health legislation aimed at ultra-processed foods, positioning the state as a leader in regulating the products increasingly linked to obesity, diabetes and other chronic conditions. The move follows growing public and scientific pressure on food manufacturers, and it is expected to influence how packaged foods are formulated and labelled across the United States.

Why now: California is one of the first US states to legislate directly against ultra-processed foods, a fast-growing public health debate.
