Bill Seeks To Remove Ultra-Processed Foods From School Lunches in California Lawmakers seek to ban all ultra-processed foods from school lunches in the state of California by 2032, amid growing evidence of the long-term health risks for children. March 24, 2025 Michael Adams Add Your Comments Amid growing evidence that children face an increased risk of type-2 diabetes, fatty liver disease and other serious health conditions from ultra-processed foods, California lawmakers have introduced a first-of-its-kind bill that seeks to ban items from being included in school lunches. If the bill is enacted, the process of phasing out ultra-processed food would start in 2028, and conclude with a total ban on the products by 2032. Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) have become very popular over the past two decades, with food manufacturers marketing a wide variety of items that are made with highly refined ingredients, and a mix of additives designed to replicate the flavor, look and feel of natural foods. They include sugary breakfast cereals, packaged frozen meals, sodas and other snack foods like chips. These foods are often loaded with preservatives, artificial sweeteners and emulsifiers to enhance the product’s taste, texture and shelf life, while contributing little to no nutritional value. However, it now appears that the food industry has long been aware of potential health risks associated with these products, but has continued to promote them aggressively to both adults and children. Processed Food Lawsuit Did your child develop health problems from consuming processed foods? Lawsuits are being filed against the food industry for intentionally manufacturing ultra-processed foods with addictive and harmful substances that have contributed to a spike in childhood diabetes, fatty liver disease and other chronic illnesses.

Lawsuits are being filed against the food industry for intentionally manufacturing ultra-processed foods with addictive and harmful substances that have contributed to a spike in childhood diabetes, fatty liver disease and other chronic illnesses. Learn More SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION According to an NBC News report that was published last week, California Assembly Member Jesse Gabriel (D) has introduced Assembly Bill 1264 to the state legislature, which will completely ban ultra-processed foods in California school lunches by 2032, if enacted. The report indicates that this bill will be the first of its kind in the U.S., and that it appears to have bipartisan support within the California state legislature. The California bill is being proposed at a time when newly appointed U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., has been targeting ultra-processed foods as a major contributor to diseases and other adverse health conditions affecting American youth. Kennedy even vowed in his Senate confirmation hearing to make a focus of his tenure as Secretary at HHS to be removing ultra-processed foods from American children’s school lunches. Ultra-Processed Foods Health Concerns Gabriel and Kennedy’s attempts to tackle the issue of ultra-processed foods in school lunches comes at a time when the products are gaining increased attention due to their many adverse health effects. A report published last month by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada showed that ultra-processed foods can be linked to almost 40% of all heart disease cases. The researchers also found that UPFs currently make up 43% of Canadian adults’ total daily energy uptake. Another study published in December 2024, found that ultra-processed foods can worsen certain chronic skin conditions, such as psoriasis. Among the study’s participants, those with active psoriasis were also more likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease and inflammatory rheumatism as well. As a result of these findings and others, lawyers across the U.S. are investigating potential ultra-processed food lawsuits for families of children diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or fatty liver disease, alleging that food manufacturers knowingly downplayed health concerns while prioritizing profits, by using marketing strategies that misled consumers and failed to warn about the dangers linked to ultra-processed foods. Ultra-processed food lawyers handle all claims on a contingency fee basis, meaning there are no fees or expenses unless a settlement or lawsuit payout is obtained on an individual’s behalf.
