Ultra-processed foods and health: hard evidence or hysteria, with Jenny Chapman

In episode 9, we had an informative discussion  with Jenny Chapman, a Churchill Fellow and food systems researcher. Jenny has a degree in Biology from the University of Oxford, a Masters in Taxonomy from Imperial College London, and a lifelong love of the natural world.  Her work has involved researching safe, healthy, sustainable and ethical protein sources. Jenny was awarded a Churchill Fellowship in 2023 to investigate the adoption, acceptance and trust of plant-based meat. Jenny recently published a report entitled’ Processing The Discourse over Plant-Based Meat’ which is an essential read for anyone who is trying to understand more about the “ultra-processed foods” debate.
