Study participants at the upper end of ultra-processed food consumption — for whom the daily energy percentage contribution of such foods was above 19.9% — showed a 28% faster rate of global cognitive decline, and a 25% faster rate of decline in executive function — the mental skills used every day to learn, work and manage daily life.

That’s compared with people who ate no ultra-processed foods or, if they did, stayed below the 19.9% threshold over a follow-up period that averaged eight years.
