You have a study link? I’m interested in how they show causation. Because health conscious people will be more likely to eat healthier, and less likely to eat highly processed foods.
Looks like this is the relevant study from that video. It found people eat more calories of highly processed food when given the option, which makes sense. Weight gain was highly correlated with calorie intake though, so if you eat the same amount of calories of highly processed and unprocessed food, it should have the same weight gain.
