Abstract Ultra-processed food (UPF) intake is associated with increased non-communicable disease risks. However, systematic reports on sociodemographic predictors of UPF are lacking. This review aimed to understand consumption based factors, using nationally representative cohorts. The was pre-registered (PROSPERO:CRD42022360199), following PRISMA guidelines. PubMed/MEDLINE searches (‘ultra-processed/ultraprocessed’ and ‘ultra-processing/ultraprocessing’) until 7 September 2022 retrieved 1131 results. Inclusion criteria included: observational, adult samples, in English, peer-reviewed journals, assessing the association between sociodemographics individual-level defined by NOVA classification. Exclusion not representative, no assessment NOVA. Risk bias assessed Newcastle–Ottawa Scale (NOS). Fifty-five papers were included, spanning thirty-two countries. All thirteen variables identified significantly one or more studies. Significant differences seen across age, race/ethnicity, rural/urbanisation, insecurity, income region, up 10–20% (% total energy). Higher intakes younger urbanisation being unmarried, single, separated divorced. Education, socioeconomic status showed varying associations, depending country. Multivariate analyses indicated that associations independent other sociodemographics. Household gender generally intake. NOS averaged 5·7/10. Several characteristics independently high intake, indicating large variation risk. These findings highlight significant public health inequalities urgent need for policy action minimise social injustice-related inequalities.

Since the 1980s, chronic kidney disease (CKD) affecting all ages has increased by almost 25%. This increase may be partially attributable to lifestyle changes and global consumption of a “western” diet, which is typically energy dense, low in fruits vegetables, high animal protein ultra-processed foods. These modern food trends have led an advanced glycation end products (AGEs) conjunction with metabolic dysfunction, obesity diabetes, facilitates production endogenous AGEs within body.
