Introduction: Obesity increases the risk of morbidity and mortality. A major driver has been the increased availability of ultra-processed food (UPF), now the main UK dietary energy source. The UK Eatwell Guide (EWG) provides public guidance for a healthy balanced diet but offers no UPF guidance. Whether a healthy diet can largely consist of UPFs is unclear. No study has assessed whether the health impact of adhering to dietary guidelines depends on food processing. Furthermore, our study will assess the impact of a 6-month behavioural support programme aimed at reducing UPF intake in people with overweight/obesity and high UPF intakes.
Methods and Analysis: UPDATE is a 2×2 cross-over randomised controlled trial with a 6-month behavioural intervention. Fifty-five adults aged ≥18, with overweight/obesity (≥25 to <40 kg/m 2 ), and ≥50% of habitual energy intake from UPFs will receive an 8-week UPF diet and an 8-week minimally processed food (MPF) diet delivered to their home, both following EWG recommendations, in a random order, with a 4-week washout period. All food/drink will be provided. Participants will then receive 6 months of behavioural support to reduce UPF intake. The primary outcome is the difference in weight change between UPF and MPF diets from baseline to week 8. Secondary outcomes include changes in diet, waist circumference, body composition, heart rate, blood pressure, cardiometabolic risk factors, appetite regulation, sleep quality, physical activity levels, physical function/strength, well-being and aspects of behaviour change/eating behaviour at 8 weeks between UPF/MPF diets, and at 6-month follow-up. Quantitative assessment of changes in brain MRI functional resting-state connectivity between UPF/MPF diets, and qualitative analysis of the behavioural intervention for feasibility and acceptability will be undertaken.
Ethics and Dissemination: Sheffield Research Ethics Committee approved the trial (22/YH/0281). Peer-reviewed journals, conferences, PhD thesis and lay media will report results.
Trial Registration Number: NCT05627570.
