It's simple. Avoid them, just as you should avoid processed meat.

Easy less processed food, and lots of fruit, veg, fiber, and protein from whatever source you like. That's the key to a healthy diet.

I don't get the downvotes, it's a pretty solid advice.

You have to try really hard to be unhealthy if you eat unprocessed meat, veggies, grains and stick to the basics. It's what millions of years of evolution engineered our body for. Not 300gr of smoked bacon every morning and 1L of fruit juice per day.

A good heuristic for this is don't eat anything that, in its purest form, wasn't around 10,000 years ago.
