About this episode

Vani Hari is an author, activist, and founder of Food Babe. Something is profoundly wrong with America’s food industry. From the scientists shaping America's understanding to the regulatory bodies meant to protect us, there are deep-seated problems in the system. The fight to restore America’s health has begun, but corruption and troubling ingredients in our food supply are just the tip of the iceberg. Expect to learn why Vani Hari took her fight straight to the front steps of Kellogg's headquarters, why so many ingredients are approved in the U.S. but banned in Europe, which companies are the biggest culprits in adding unnecessary junk to food, why seed oils are at the centre of the debate over healthy products, the major conflicts of interest among food scientists and studies and much more...
