Ultra-processed foods can have a negative effect on mental health, and this is especially true for younger people, who consume more of these foods than older people.
Over time, there has been increasing evidence that those whose diet includes large quantities of ultra-processed foods are more likely to develop physical health issues.
These issues can include obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and even more rapid aging. This is supported by wide research, including a paper by the IRCCS Neuromed Mediterranean Neurological Institute in Italy, involving about 23,000 citizens from the Molise region.
The researchers found that individuals whose consumption of ultra-processed foods is as high as 14.6% of their overall food intake have a 26% increased mortality risk over those who eat fewer UPFs. It further goes on to say that the same group of people faces a 58% greater chance of dying from cardiovascular diseases.
Atom Computing has created the first quantum computer to surpass 1,000 qubits, which could improve the accuracy of the machines.

Emerging generalist models could overcome some limitations of first-generation machine-learning tools for clinical use.
An already-approved chemotherapy drug could reduce the risk of dying of cervical cancer when added to the current treatment standard, according to new research presented at a major medical conference.
The study, presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology, followed 500 people, most of whom had âlocally advancedâ cervical cancer that hadnât yet spread to other body parts.
Half of the patients were treated with chemoradiation â the current gold standard for treatment, researchers said. The other half were given combination therapy that included a pre-dose (or induction dose) of chemotherapy before every session of chemoradiation.
Sofia Hart has no pulse due to heart failure, and uses TikTok to document her life with an LVAD, a device that pumps her heart while she awaits a heart transplant.

Tesla has reportedly surpassed 2,000 open and active Supercharger stations in the U.S., marking a major milestone in the automakerâs continued deployment of charging infrastructure.
How many qubits do we have to have in a quantum computer and accessble to a wide market to trully have something scfi worthy?
Today, a startup called Atom Computing announced that it has been doing internal testing of a 1,180 qubit quantum computer and will be making it available to customers next year. The system represents a major step forward for the company, which had only built one prior system based on neutral atom qubitsâa system that operated using only 100 qubits.
The error rate for individual qubit operations is high enough that it wonât be possible to run an algorithm that relies on the full qubit count without it failing due to an error. But it does back up the companyâs claims that its technology can scale rapidly and provides a testbed for work on quantum error correction. And, for smaller algorithms, the company says itâll simply run multiple instances in parallel to boost the chance of returning the right answer.
