1220: Industry Influence Behind New Dietary Guidelines

'New Dietary Guidelines Were Written by Authors With Strong Ties to the Food Industry' and 'Dietary Guidelines Are a Mixed Bag, Show Industry Influence, Says Physicians Committee' The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans were written by authors with strong ties to the food industry (at least 7 of 9!) and they sidestepped longstanding federal legal protections by ignoring the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee's recent scientific report and relying instead on the recommendations of a hastily assembled panel of industry insiders, without any oversight or input by the public.  Listen to today's episode from Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine at PCRM.org #vegan #plantbased #plantbasedbriefing #DGA #dietaryguidelines #industryinfluence #carnivore #maha #UPFs #processedfoods #naturalfoods #realfood #healthyprocessedfoods    ================== Original post: https://www.pcrm.org/news/news-releases/new-dietary-guidelines-were-written-authors-strong-ties-food-industry-doctors https://www.pcrm.org/news/news-releases/dietary-guidelines-are-mixed-bag-show-industry-influence-says-physicians  ================== Related Episodes: 966: Prioritizing Plant-Based Protein in the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines https://sites.libsyn.com/342677/966-prioritizing-plant-based-protein-in-the-2025-2030-dietary-guidelines-from-pcrmorg  ====================== The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is a non-profit organization founded by Dr. Neal Barnard, combining the clout and expertise of more than 12,000 physicians, dietitians, and scientists and almost 200,000 members worldwide.

And since 1985, the Physicians Committee has worked tirelessly for alternatives to the use of animals in medical education and research, and for more effective scientific methods. The Physicians Committee is dedicated to saving and improving human and animal lives through plant-based diets and ethical and effective scientific research. ============================== FOLLOW THE SHOW ON: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@plantbasedbriefing     Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2GONW0q2EDJMzqhuwuxdCF?si=2a20c247461d4ad7 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/plant-based-briefing/id1562925866 Your podcast app of choice: https://pod.link/1562925866 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PlantBasedBriefing   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/plant-based-briefing/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/plantbasedbriefing/
