8 Foods That Can Contribute to Anxiety and Depression 06/01/2026

"Commercially processed foods can negatively affect your mental health."

"When university and medical school researchers from North and South America set out to explore the theory that processed foods contribute to poor mental health, they found ultra-processed foods (UPF) to be the worst offenders. Ultra-processed foods are commercially prepared convenience food products that contain little to no whole food ingredients, often lack essential nutrients, and often contain additives, such as flavorings, colorings, and other products that make the food more appealing to consumers. In other words, they in no way resemble the original food sources from which they are made."

People successfully make lifestyle improvements when they have robust accountability, guidance, and support.

At Puvema, we rely on evidence-based approaches to lasting behavior improvement and positive habit formation, and we never go it alone. We go it together. Because wellness starts with "we".
