  California is moving forward to pass the first state law to define potentially harmful ultraprocessed foods and prohibit them from being added to school lunches.

The article from CNN dated June 3, 2025, discusses a new legislative proposal in California aimed at reducing the consumption of ultraprocessed foods. The bill, introduced by State Senator Maria Elena Durazo, seeks to impose warning labels on food products that contain high levels of artificial additives and sugars, which are linked to various health issues including obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. The legislation is part of a broader movement to improve public health by encouraging consumers to make more informed choices about their diets. Proponents of the bill argue that it will help combat the rising rates of chronic diseases, while critics express concerns about the potential economic impact on food manufacturers and the complexity of defining what constitutes an ultraprocessed food.
