Discover the hidden impact of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) on women's health with Ultra-Processed Women. Everyone is talking about the rapidly mounting evidence that our diet of ultra-processed food (UPF) is fundamentally damaging our health. But what barely anyone is talking about is the specific impact that this very modern way of eating could be having on the female body, and on women's health and lives. Women are so often left out of the health conversation with the male body treated as the default - let's make sure this doesn't happen again as the spotlight is turned on UPF. Ultra-Processed Women would be written in Milli Hill's usual style: readable, warm, engaging, campaigning, and at times, humorous. The science would be central and well researched but ultimately this would be an expose: a book that opens women's minds to the possibility that all of the health issues they often attribute simply to 'being female', could potentially be improved not just by 'eating better', but by specifically and consciously removing UPF from their shopping trolley. Ultra-Processed Foods (UPFs) are linked to, for example: * More painful and heavier periods, and worse symptoms of PMS * Increased symptoms of menopause * Unwanted weight gain and obesity * 50% higher risk of depression in middle age women * Increased risk of developing and dying from female cancers * Higher risk of health problems in pregnancy * Increased risk of dementia and Alzheimer's Ultra-Processed Women is uniquely placed as the only book on the market to focus on the specific affects that UPF has on women's health, while not being a diet or weight loss book. It is readable, accessible, actionable, and based on cutting edge science, by one of the UK's most respected and outspoken health writers.

Ultra-Processed Women draws on the widespread success of Chris van Tulleken's Ultra-Processed People, but goes further to focus on UPFs uniquely dangerous impact on women's health, whilst similarly using science-backed evidence as the foundation of the book. * This would build on the success of Chris Van Tulleken's Ultra-Processed People (142,382 TCM), covering areas he didn't go into and bringing women's health into the forefront. * Over the past 13 years, Milli has written for all the major UK newspapers and has contacts across the UK press. * She is particularly known in the women's health field and has been on dozens of podcasts including Deliciously Ella as well as BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio 2 (with Amol Rajan) and BBC Radio 5 (with Emma Barnett). * Milli's substack The Mule now has over 5,000 subscribers, including over 240 paid subscribers. Her Instagram account is blue check marked and has 17k followers. She has 40k followers on Twitter.
