Dr. Rupy Aujla, a family doctor in London, changed his diet significantly after being diagnosed with a heart condition in his twenties. Moving away from processed convenience foods, he now prioritizes plant-based whole foods, fiber, and the quality of ingredients. Aujla believes that the prevalence of ultra-processed foods negatively impacts gut health and inflammation, leading to various health issues. He emphasizes the importance of dietary changes in conjunction with medication and lifestyle adjustments, and he incorporates greens into every meal for better health.
"It's been apparent to me that the overuse of additives, emulsifiers, and the habituation of this kind of food in our diet are responsible for a huge swath of ill health, and it goes beyond obesity."
"This is the most important thing because it affects your gut, which affects inflammation. There is a very clear link between the ultra-processed diet that is so normalized and a number of different conditions that we see affecting people across the UK and beyond."
