Every woman should read this book. (Actually, every human should read this book). I have been interested in Ultra Processed Food for some time now, and have read a few books on the subject. 'Ultra-Processed Women' taught me stuff I didn't know, but more than that, it was tailored towards how UPF affects women in particular. And what Hill has discovered is truly disturbing. I had no idea about UPF in cosmetics, and now I will be very careful what I buy. I am already eating as well as I can, but Hill explained how UPF disrupts so much of the female body, and I am now committed even more to being careful what I put in, and on, my body. The book is so easy to read, so relatable, so very important.

This is a thoughtful book on how ultra processed foods affect women, because their bodies are different from men.
Also they may be more conditioned to buy these foods by social pressure, for example in wishing they were thinner, or sknny which is the word the author uses. There is a lot more to this book than the examples I have given,. Whether we agree with all that is said in the book or not it is a good read, that shows the impact of these foods on males, but in particular on women.
I did not finish the book because it was heavy going at times and for the same reason I missed bits out, especially the bits not relevant to me. However the bits I did read were good and although I disagreed with some of what the author said, it was worth my time reading it.
