There are two types of curses found in Scripture. There's the natural curse and the direct curse.
The natural curse is obvious in things like gravity. If you jump off a 20 story building there is a natural curse applied.
The direct curse is one that God may apply due to extreme rebellion against Him. We see curses like this with King Saul. Contrary to popular teaching, these direct curses still apply to day. Look at what Christ said to the church of Thyatira in Revelation:
Behold, I will throw her onto a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her I will throw into great tribulation, unless they repent of her works, 23 and I will strike her children dead. And all the churches will know that I am he who searches mind and heart, and I will give to each of you according to your works.
Revelation 2:22-23
That being said, for some time, I've believed that Americans are suffering from natural judgements that God has placed in the world. We are told how to eat but because we indulge in sweet goods and deserts, we are suffering from the natural judgement of cavities, obesity, and diabetes.
That being said, a new massive study has found 32 harmful health conditions that are directly linked to the consumption of ultra processed foods. If you're like me, you're wondering what ultra-processed food entails. The study used definitions that were listed in the Nova Food Classification System.
Examples of ultra-processed foods is fatty, sweet, savory, or salty packaged snacks, sodas, ice creams, energy drinks, powdered instant soups, margarines, etc. You can see the study and the list of ultra-processed foods in the links below.
