The Lancet slams “corporate power” driving UPFs, nutritionists reject processing-based dietary advice
As global policymakers and healthcare advisers move to curb ultra-processed foods (UPFs), the UK medical journal The Lancet has published a three-part series outlining policy recommendations to regulate and reduce these products, underscoring that education and consumer-focused behavioral shifts are still insufficient to address the public health threat. “This rise in UPFs is driven by powerful global corporations who employ sophisticated political tactics to protect and maximize profits,” stress The Lancet authors. “Deteriorating diets are an urgent public health threat that requires coordinated policies and advocacy to regulate and reduce UPFs and improve access to fresh and minimally processed foods.”

New GLP-1 science and drugs reach “tipping point,” reshaping health and nutrition
Emerging science and drug product development are poised to transform the US GLP-1 landscape, potentially increasing the adoption of these medications even further. Researchers are exploring how organs beyond the gut secrete GLP-1 and other satiety hormones, and how nutrition may impact this system. Meanwhile, the pharmaceutical pipeline is expanding rapidly into new indications, hormone combinations, and more convenient delivery formats. At the recent Discovery Forum on precision nutrition in the GLP-1 era, organized by the University of California (UC) Davis, US, we caught up with a metabolic health researcher and the program director at the Innovation Institute for Food and Health (IIFH).

In its efforts to develop infant nutrition that is compositionally closer to breast milk, Valio highlights the potential of exosomes for innovative formulas. These nanosized vesicles are generated by nearly all cells and are increasingly recognized as critical messengers that influence cellular communication and development. Valio notes that, in early life, human milk exosomes play a key role as mediators of mother-to-child interaction, supporting gut maturation, immune function, and nervous system development. However, the processing steps in infant milk formula production may impact their activity.
