Description

According to a recent government-funded food pyramid study from Tufts School of Nutrition, Lucky Charms are healthier to eat than steak. So how did such an obviously ridiculous claim pass multiple levels of review at a widely respected research institution? Calley Means joins us to expose the decades-long influence that processed food and pharmaceutical companies have held over America’s research institutions, how it’s led to skyrocketing rates of obesity and other chronic health conditions, and simple reforms to programs like SNAP that could make America healthy again.

Calley Means is a food-as-medicine advocate and the co-founder of TrueMed. He was previously a consultant for food and pharma companies and is now exposing practices they use to weaponize our institutions of trust. Follow Calley on Twitter at @calleymeans.

Keep drinking the Kool-Aid Crenshaw. If you really want us to believe that lobbyists only give you up to $5K and that’s it you got a think they were blind. I’m sure it was only $5K contributions that made Pelosi a multi millionaire.  There’s so much more that lobbyists give than just money. And you know that!
