Reviewer 1 Report

some typos, and grammer please check

discussion should be enriched, how about challenges for government, academia, and industry partnerships ? possible harmonization for regulatory on ultra processed foods, and more references should be for a review paper

Reviewer 2 Report

Dear authors

thank you for presenting a very interesting and actuall topic

The general opinion of the paper is:

it is well written, with proper introduction, methods , discusion and conclusions according to the topic od research.

The possible minor changes could be made in abstract:

describe conclusions that go pro or contra (barriers /facilators) to policies , that you have already stated in conclusion section4.

such as effective communication to public, policies for preventing obesity, country specifc policies ,,.... etc

AND In section 3.4. you can divide pro et contra strategies,

as you mentioned that Usa regulations are not so strict, pressures of food industry, influence on policy

v.s.

European strategies (France ....) that are more strict and concerned about health issues and food

with higher public awareness about health and food

best regards,

the reviewer
