Do ultra-processed foods affect men and women differently? Journalist Milli Hill joins Liz to reveal how the menopause leaves women vulnerable to the detrimental effects of UPFs.

Liz and Milli look at how UPFs are marketed at women with labels such as 'low-calorie' and 'skinny', plus consider how our period symptoms and the menopause are linked to our diet.

Milli also walks Liz through other health issues that UPFs may present for women, such as osteoporosis and dementia.
