As a skeptic, I think that they have defined too broad of an umbrella in the research, and so they're sweeping up huge swaths of people's diet under one label and then claiming it's bad.

Up thread, people are talking about using minced soy protein. I'm kind of surprised that itself is not ultra processed, given that bread flour is considered to be ultra processed.

Soy protein isolate is considered ultra processed just like whey. The problem is people taking a technical term then using it in casual discussion, especially for something as complicated and diverse as diet and nutrition.
