Ultra Processed Foods | Should We Eat Them? | Doctor Explains 🩺

In today’s episode I give you the low down on Ultra-Processed Foods (UPFs). These are foods that generally have 5 or more ingredients to them which typically include additives and emulsifiers to preserve shelf life.

Recent research has shown that we are consuming a lot of UPFs which may have a negative impact on our health, such as contributing to heart disease and colorectal cancer.

Be sure to always check the nutritional label when buying food from the supermarket. If the ingredient list looks like a science experiment, it’s safe to say it’s a UPF.

I hope you enjoyed this video and as always if you have any questions or comments please drop me in a line.

Women’s Health | Free Breast Cancer Screening for Ages 50-74

Are you aged between 50-74? Are you up to date with your breast cancer screening?

If the answer is no to the above then it’s time to get screening.

According to the Australian Institute of Health & Welfare, only half of women in the target age group are taking up their two yearly free mammograms to test for breast cancer.

Breast screening is important for the early detection of breast cancer. The earlier breast cancer is detected the sooner it can be treated with more favourable outcomes. Breast screening also helps to provide women with reassurance following a normal result.

Breast screening is performed using a machine called a mammogram that pushes pressure onto the breasts whilst images are taken. This usually lasts for 10 seconds at a time.

These images are then analysed by a specialist doctor and the results are sent to yourself and your GP. You will then be put on a register to remind you to return every 2 years until the age of 74.

If you have any concerns regarding breast cancer or would like advice on how to check your breasts come and see me in clinic today.

For women who are eligible for a free breast screen visit https://breastscreen.qld.gov.au/

Take care & stay healthy
