California targets ultra-processed foods with sweeping new health legislation

California is moving forward with sweeping new health legislation aimed at curbing ultra-processed foods in the state. The measures would tighten rules on how such products are formulated, labelled or sold, positioning California at the forefront of US efforts to address the health risks linked to diets high in processed foods. The move is being watched closely by the food industry and public health advocates nationwide.

Why now: Lawmakers and public health advocates are intensifying scrutiny of ultra-processed foods, and California's legislation sets a precedent other states may follow.
