I mean, which foods even count as ultraprocessed isn't well defined. It's not an ingredient, it's not a technique. OP was trying to find a problem for their solution, you're right, but lack of exercise is just as big of a suspect if not bigger.
They're engineered to be very appealing for sure, but do you have a link for the not filling us up bit? That one's new to me.
