Ultra-processed food products and obesity in Brazilian households (2008-2009).

<h4>Background</h4>Production and consumption of industrially processed food and drink products have risen in parallel with the global increase in overweight and obesity and related chronic non-communicable diseases. The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between hou...
