TL;DR Summary

Author and associate professor Dr Chris van Tulleken argues that ultra-processed foods are addictive and harmful, comparing their effect on the brain to that of cocaine. He highlights the negative impact of junk food on physical and mental health, particularly for children, and calls for stricter regulations on advertising and health claims for these products. Additionally, a breakthrough drug for severe hair loss sufferers has been announced, former Strictly star Robin Windsor has passed away, and the UK government will now issue 'baby loss certificates' for stillbirths and miscarriages before 24 weeks.
