Unfortunately there seems to be no good aligned definition of what (highly) processed food is. 1,2

Whole grain bread or infant formula can be “highly processed” despite very healthy.

In the end someone else cooks for you and packages it. They can cook healthy or not or in between, add a lot of salt or little, .. as always it’s more complex.

"processed" and "healthy" are oxymorons.

I think it's better to tell people to restrict themselves to "whole foods".

I believe you’re missing their point. As well as demonstrating a complete lack of information about infant formula.

To me it seems the point is “processed” == bad. Isn’t it? And NOVA seems to be the gold standard for what’s “processed”.

Of course there’s better things as whole grain bread in plastic foil (whole grain bread freshly made) or infant formula (breastfeeding). But they are more healthy than other things that rank better in NOVA.
