                                According to a 2024 study in *The BMJ*, diets high in ultra-processed foods (UPFs) have been linked to an increased risk of over 30 health problems, fueling widespread consumer concern. Many are now questioning if common products like Bertolli spread fall into this category and what that means for their diet.
