Jordan Sather and Nate Prince deliver a packed episode of MAHA News, kicking off with the CDC's explosive website update acknowledging that claims of “no link” between vaccines and autism are not evidence-based, triggering absolute meltdown across legacy media, pharma loyalists, and blue-state health bureaucracies. The hosts track the political fallout, RFK Jr.'s direct role in ordering the change, and the wave of scientists now admitting long-ignored biologic mechanisms worth investigating. From Bhattacharya and Makary's blunt critiques of captured institutions to Robert Malone exposing the financial corruption inside the AAP and ACIP, the guys highlight a medical landscape finally cracking open. Jordan and Nate also dive into SSRIs, microbiome destruction, gut health, antibiotic overuse, and the soaring chronic-illness rates no one in the old regime wants to talk about. The episode closes with a fiery breakdown of SNAP as corporate welfare, revealing how billions in taxpayer dollars funnel straight into Coca-Cola, Frito-Lay, Walmart, and Big Food, while politicians pretend it's about “feeding the poor.” A fast, funny, and fiercely honest episode charting the scientific and political shifts reshaping U.S. health policy.

The food system isn't broken. But it has a big problem. That is land – and how little of it we have. Journalist and author Michael Grunwald joins us on the show today to talk openly about the elephant in the food ecosystem. Regenerative agriculture, precision fermentation, vertical farming, meat alternatives … we have no shortage of innovative ideas in the food system. But very quickly, a ‘quick fix' turns out to be just a dumb idea. Despite a growing population, climate change challenges, and a human hypocrisy problem, Mike says we can feed everyone with the land we have, we just can't keep taking more of it for agriculture. Perhaps, then, the biggest consideration facing food businesses today is not to chase the ‘next big thing', but as we scale nascent ideas, to consider land in that equation - and not as a ‘free' asset. Because as Mike says, with the land we have, the math sucks.----------More:Looking Outside podcast www.looking-outside.comConnect with host, Jo Lepore on LinkedIn & Substack & jolepore.comLearn more about Michael GrunwaldFollow Mike on LinkedIn & XGrab a copy of Mike's book 'We are eating the earth'Speaking opportunities with Mike ----------⭐ Follow & rate the show - it makes a difference!----------Looking Outside is a podcast exploring fresh perspectives of familiar topics.

How do we turn untapped science into the next generation of food companies? In this episode, we sit down with Giacomo Cattaneo, co-founder of EverGrain and now the driving force behind FOOD FOUNDERS Studio, a Swiss venture studio dedicated to turning Europe's breakthrough food tech IP into market-ready startups.Giacomo walks us through his journey from mechanical engineer to food innovator, his time inside one of the world's largest beverage companies, and why he believes the future of food demands new models of venture building. We dive into the systemic challenges holding the industry back, from off-notes in plant protein to the disconnection between science, startups, and Big Food, and how his studio is working to bridge those divides.Whether you're a founder, investor, or scientist curious about the startup journey, this conversation offers a front-row view into a new way of scaling innovation, one grounded in science but built for real-world impact.Episode Guide00:00: Intro01:01: Giacomo's path from engineering to food innovation02:49: Taste, texture & affordability: the big foodtech hurdles10:11: Why venture studios matter, and how this one works13:21: How corporates & universities fit into the puzzle21:21: Scientists vs entrepreneurs: roles in startup success25:05: Lessons from building food tech companies34:05: Novel ingredients & solving legacy problems36:01: The FOOD FOUNDERS Studio model38:10: Mapping real problems with the right partners41:15: Building and using strong advisory boards44:49: Fundraising as a venture studio48:07: Lightning Round: books, bold ideas, and one big wish57:11: Closing thoughts

Are multivitamins bad for you? How could that be? In this video, I'll share the truth about the multivitamin scam. Find out about the vitamins you should never take, supplements that don't work, and the harmful ingredients in your supplements. 0:00 Introduction: Multivitamins truth0:19 Harmful ingredients in supplements 1:45 Synthetic vs. natural vitamins 3:38 Do multivitamins really work?9:32 Natural vitamins and minerals11:17 Fake vitamins exposed! Many multivitamins are made with the cheapest, synthetic ingredients which could be doing more harm than good.The first ingredient in many multivitamins is often calcium carbonate, which is limestone! The first ingredient usually makes up the majority of the product. Magnesium oxide, another common ingredient, is very cheap and has the lowest absorption rate compared to other forms of magnesium. The term “natural” isn't regulated, so ingredients derived from sources such as petroleum and coal tar can be labeled as natural. In nature, vitamins don't exist alone; they are combined with other nutrients and cofactors, which are often missing when you take synthetic vitamins. Biochemistry can not work without cofactors. Although there are nutrients that are difficult to obtain in sufficient amounts from food, that doesn't mean they should be replaced with synthetic multivitamins.Maltodextrin is commonly used as a filler in vitamins and minerals. It's a highly refined industrial starch, classified as a complex carbohydrate, and spikes blood sugar more than sugar. Ascorbic acid is a synthetic part of the vitamin C complex. Approximately 90% is made in China from GMO corn and sulfuric acid. Many people have a genetic issue converting cyanocobalamin, a synthetic form of B12, and folic acid, a synthetic form of B9, into their active forms. This can cause negative side effects in 40% of the population.Almost all of the popular multivitamins are owned by Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Chemical, or large investment groups. For example, Centrum Silver is owned by Pfizer, and One a Day is owned by Bayer. Nature Made is owned by the same company that sells Abilify!Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Big Food, Big Pharma, and government liars poison America with obesity and death jabs. John Jubilee exposes fat tax scams, GLP1 fraud, and Energized Health's cellular fix that torches fat, reverses disease, and builds warriors to get in fighting shape or become depopulation bait. After getting cuffed on felony charges for stalking my family, harassing my kids and destroying my boat, Zionist fake pastor Mike Montgomery has resigned from his position and is leaving town. But Montgomery is just the first. We're declaring total war on these pulpit snakes, who are deceiving their flocks into worshipping the modern-day nation-state of Israel as a false idol. We will be exposing every last one and taking our churches back for Jesus Christ. Behavioral analyst Jen, known as Blue Montauk , exposes Erika Kirk as the Trump picked, jewel covered phony widow whose micro expression leaks, smug duping delight grins, and handkerchief cover ups scream Mossad trained crisis actress hiding the truth behind Charlie Kirk's assassination.   Western civilization has been infected by a parasitic invasion of foreign ideals and values that have been introduced into our culture by strange and morally degenerate people whose goal is world domination. We have been OCCUPIED.

Waarom grijpen we zo vaak naar ongezonde voeding en worden we daardoor met z'n allen zwaarlijviger? Aan onze kennis over gezonde voeding kan het niet liggen. Want die was nog nooit zo goed als vandaag. Er moeten dus andere redenen zijn waarom we ons altijd weer laten verleiden om ongezonde keuzes te maken. En dus wordt het tijd dat we onszelf de vraag stellen: waarom eten we wat we eten? In de vierdelige podcastreeks Buikgevoel onderzoekt Alexander Lippeveld samen met Maxie Eckert, Nathalie Carpentier en Jef Poppelmonde wat er schuilt achter ons eetgedrag. De volledige podcastreeks kun je vanaf 7 november beluisteren in de vernieuwde luisteromgeving in de app van De Standaard. Ze hebben het over de verslavende logica van sociale media en de sluwe marketing van Big Food achter sommige voedingshypes, over onze tieners die er niets aan kunnen doen dat ze niet kunnen weerstaan aan al die snacks, en over waarom een suikertaks helemaal niet betuttelend hoeft te zijn in tegenstelling tot wat de meeste van onze politici beweren. Maar ze hebben het ook over hun eigen overtuigingen over eten, en nodigen je uit om mee na te denken wat jij zelf belangrijk vindt aan eten. Buikgevoel is een journalistieke zoektocht naar hoe buik, brein en beleid bepalen wat we allemaal naar binnen spelen – en wat dat zegt over wie we zijn.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. In this episode, Dr. Jack examines a constant of all of the patients he sees — they all want the best for their families, but they don't always know what that is… until they take the time to study and learn what changes to integrate into their family menu and lifestyle, and that it all begins with baby steps and continuous routine that become habits, leading to sustainable lifestyle changes. The “Big Food” marketing tricks exist for the bottom line of making money with low quality food-like-products that cost consumers a lot more than the cost of production. Some of the terms to be aware of when it comes to supposedly healthy foods. For instance, “net carbs” is a phrase used when they subtract the fiber and sugar alcohol from the total carbohydrate count to trick the unsuspecting buyer, to get consumers to buy into thinking that the rest of the carbs don't matter, and that's not accurate. Then, Doug and Dr. Jack shed light on the E. coli outbreak from McDonald's Quarter Pounders, On the topic of food-borne illnesses, the gentlemen break down the difference between E. Coli, Listeria, Salmonella, etc. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Recorded live at the Coffee Association of Canada Annual Conference, this special edition of The Food Professor Podcast with Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois brews up a rich conversation on the state of Canada's food economy, the coffee industry's shifting landscape, and the global forces shaping what Canadians eat and drink live on the stage.The episode opens with Michael and Sylvain diving into the latest geopolitical tensions influencing trade and agriculture. From Washington to Mexico City, Sylvain shares insights from his travels and firsthand discussions with U.S. policy insiders and Latin American producers. The conversation highlights how Canada's trading partners are adapting quickly, especially Mexico's resilience and growing potential as a key agri-food ally in the hemisphere.The professors then turn to an annual highlight — an early look at the 2026 Canada Food Price Report, compiled by a network of ten universities using AI-powered forecasting. Sylvain hints at tough times ahead for consumers, forecasting that meat and poultry prices could rise by as much as 25% in the months ahead, putting pressure on Canadian households. He connects this to the emerging “protein play” trend, where consumers are seeking protein in unconventional forms — including fortified beverages like coffee. While acknowledging the opportunity, he cautions that nutritionists are warning against over-fortification, signaling that balance and consumer education will be key.The discussion then flows into GLP-1 drugs and their growing impact on food demand. As consumers change their eating patterns, Sylvain warns that Big Pharma's gains may translate into Big Food's challenges — though innovation and reformulation could open new opportunities. From AI-enabled efficiency to personalized nutrition, the professors explore how food and beverage brands must adapt to new consumption realities.Rounding out the first half, they discuss the “Battle for the Third Place” — how coffee shops are redefining the space between home and work post-COVID. Sylvain urges operators to double down on human connection and service excellence, even as automation and rising wages push toward efficiency.In the second half, guest Doug Porter, Chief Economist at BMO, unpacks Canada's economic outlook. Porter delivers a grounded view of growth, inflation, immigration, and consumer spending, labeling the new federal budget “boring — and that's a good thing.” He weighs in on labour shortages, immigration reform, the “K-shaped” economy, and AI's role in reshaping productivity, closing with optimism that innovation and adaptation — not fear — will guide Canada's next decade.

Your favorite social media influencers might be under the influence. Discover the truth about Big Pharma and the social media influencer marketing corruption tactics they use to spread health misinformation online. Don't let Big Pharma influencers affect your health choices!0:00 Introduction: Big Pharma exposed0:55 How Big Pharma buys influencers 1:24 Big Pharma corruption and lack of trust2:24 How Big Pharma controls the media 7:11 How to identify health misinformation online 11:36 Myth-busting online Did you know that Big Pharma and Big Food buy social media influencers? These social media health gurus influence what you eat, the decisions you make about your health, and attempt to invalidate other health influencers and information. As Big Pharma loses public trust, it turns to social media influencers to try to regain it. Since 2000, penalties for Big Pharma have totaled over $126 billion. Sixty billion of that was related to patient injury and harm. Modern medicine, with the help of Big Pharma, has shifted its focus from health to profit. Approximately 90% of the media on TV is funded by Big Pharma. This is also true for digital marketing. On average, social media influencers are paid $20 to $25 per 1,000 views. If that influencer has more trust, they can make 8 to 12 times this amount. Based on my trustworthiness and credibility, I could be paid between $250,000 and $500,000 for a 60- to 90-second post.Big Pharma goes through PR firms to connect with social media influencers. These influencers are required to disclose that they're being paid, but many of them do not. People like Dr. Mike recommend medicine and vaccines yet claim Big Pharma is not paying them.Dietitians for larger agencies, such as the American Beverage Association and the Canadian Sugar Institute, have gotten into trouble with the FTC for being paid to share dietary advice without disclosing their financial ties.It's often difficult to determine whether Big Pharma is influencing health information online, but examining the intention can sometimes help. Are they recommending fewer ultra-processed foods and chemical drugs, or more? Check out their funding. Is it coming from Big Food or Big Pharma? This is a big sign that they're being influenced.

Jordan Sather brings a high-energy Halloween edition of MAHA News featuring a deep dive into the SNAP welfare system and the billions flowing from taxpayers to Big Food corporations. He exposes how companies like Coca-Cola and General Mills profit massively off subsidized junk food purchases, creating a self-feeding cycle of sickness that fattens both Big Food and Big Pharma. Jordan also breaks down breaking news on an alleged coup inside HHS after the firing of Dr. Stephen Hatfill, who had been working on an executive order to investigate mRNA crimes. Then, special guest Kim Bright joins the show to discuss the growing health crisis caused by microplastics, how they infiltrate the body and a natural solution found in kimchi. The episode wraps with coverage of RFK Jr.'s latest vaccine reforms, the Breaking Big Food documentary, and candid talk about toxic chemicals, clean living, and how to fight back against modern poison.

Paul tells the Ephesians to walk in such a way that wisdom marks our path. He then says to redeem our time, for the "days are evil". If they were evil then, we know that we know they are evil now. In fact, the days of Noah were evil plus - and so shall our days be. So what are we watching this week? It will be different tomorrow probably, and next week as well. We went from weekly newspapers in large cities back in the 19th century, to daily in the last century, to non-stop today and newspapers are not even read anymore. In light of all of this, we talk about redeeming the time in a very encouraging article to start us out. Then we talk about the uniqueness of Israel - but in a way you may not have thought of because God is sovereign over ALL nations (Acts 17).  More headlines - Big Food wants us all to be vegans, and they can prove it. A hurricane update and just how the fake media is paying richly for their censorship and lies, which has touched every life at some point. Evil days - bright future. Hold fast!

From the glowing horrors of Fruit Loops and GMOs to the “catastrophic quartet of Big Food, Big Ag, Big Pharma, and Big Insurance” re-engineering our food to overcome the effects of drugs like Ozempic, the pair wonder if it's time for a 12-step program for food addiction. Jillian delivers wake-up calls on the transgender movement and the “psyop” of body positivity, before reflecting on training "The Biggest Loser" contestants and the vital role of personal responsibility and escaping victimhood. She describes the vaccine debate as a “red herring,” and Glenn breaks down his stance on gay marriage, MAHA, and what the liberals of his generation got right.     GLENN'S SPONSORS:    Relief Factor:   If you're living with aches and pains, see how Relief Factor, a daily drug-free supplement, could help you feel better and live better.

More with Kevin Hall! Until recently, Hall was the U.S. National Institutes of Health's key researcher on the connection between ultra-processed foods and obesity. He took an early retirement due to increasing censorship of his work. He talks about his groundbreaking study with former “The Biggest Loser” contestants, the link between Big Tobacco and Big Food, and why Canadian scientist expats like him may soon be looking to return home.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Carolina Schneider, MS, RD.

Reforming SNAP. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program—formerly known as food stamps—is designed to address nutritional gaps for economically disadvantaged Americans. But critics argue that SNAP's lack of selectivity when it comes to ultra-processed foods stokes the current epidemic of obesity and metabolic disorders. Nutritionist Carolina Schneider, MS, RD, joins us to discuss an opportunity to reform SNAP. She makes the case for emphasizing fresh, minimally processed food as eligible for purchase under SNAP. Also, she urges inclusion of vitamin D under SNAP benefits because of the pervasiveness of vitamin D deficiency, especially among SNAP recipients. Check out a hub for citizen activism at www.All4VitaminD.org. In Part 2, we shift to consideration of plant-based diets: What are their advantages, and what are potential pitfalls? 

Alex Conley has lived every phase of the wellness journey, from surviving childhood cancer to chasing fitness perfection to realizing that health isn't something you buy, it's something you build through integrity and awareness. In this episode, Alex shares how years in the fitness and supplement industries exposed the cracks in our modern health system — from FDA loopholes and overprocessed supplements to the corruption of Big Food and the destruction of our soil. He explains why simplicity is the real cure, what we get wrong about hydration, and how mental health, anger, and anxiety are symptoms of a deeper imbalance in the way we live. We also cover: Why only 12% of second opinions confirm the original diagnosis How the supplement industry gets away with harmful ingredients What 98% of conventional farming means for your health The connection between soil quality, nutrition, and mental well-being Why the cure has always been simple — and how to return to it This conversation will challenge what you think you know about “wellness” and remind you that healing doesn't have to be complicated.

⚠️ WARNING: This episode will challenge everything you think you know about health. “Obesity kills more people worldwide every year than car crashes, terrorism, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and malnutrition combined.” In this eye-opening episode of Start Today, I bring you Dr. Saman Soleymani—a no-BS physician and entrepreneur running over a dozen practices—who exposes how Big Pharma and Big Food profit from disease while ignoring the #1 factor that could save your life: nutrition. From the obesity epidemic to GLP-1 drugs, testosterone, antidepressants, and birth control, Dr. Soleymani rips the lid off the lies that are killing people every single day. We uncover why waist size is the ultimate death predictor, how visceral fat destroys men's hormones, why SSRIs don't cure depression, the promising science of psilocybin, and the dangerous side effects of hormonal birth control that no one talks about. No fluff. No sugarcoating. Just the truth you need if you want to take back control of your body, your health, and your future.

Send us a textWhat if paying protesters made movements more honest instead of less? We sit down with Adam Swart, CEO of Crowds on Demand, to unpack how compensated advocacy actually works, why protests are context builders rather than public headcounts, and how to navigate a media ecosystem that rewards outrage over nuance. Adam pulls back the curtain on strategy: where you rally, what you say, and how you craft visuals—all to reach the second audience that never shows up in person but decides what trends tomorrow.We trace the arc from personal discipline and leadership ideals to modern persuasion. Adam shares why he sees compensation as the backbone of professionalism, how underdogs can outmaneuver entrenched money with smarter tactics, and what it takes to ask questions that bridge divides instead of hardening them. We examine the algorithms that keep us scrolling, the sensationalism that books TV guests, and the practical habits that help anyone spot manipulation: contextualize numbers, interrogate claims, and talk with people who don't vote like you.Adam also breaks down one of his most visible projects—the Delete Facebook movement—and the ripple effects it helped catalyze, from brand repositioning to political ad shifts. Then we go bigger: a candid call to challenge Big Food's engineered addictions and the unequal health burden they create. If you care about civic power, media literacy, and how ideas win attention in 2025, this conversation offers a blueprint you can use—whether you're organizing a cause, leading a team, or just trying to think more clearly in a noisy world.If this episode challenged you or gave you a new lens, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review to help more curious listeners find us.Thanks for listening.

Send us a textHarvard-trained physician-scientist Dr. Nick Norwitz joins me to unpack the real drivers of metabolic health. He shares how keto sent his severe ulcerative colitis into remission within one week, why “calories in, calories out” is a dead-end tautology, what happened when he overfed ~6,000 calories/day and didn't gain weight, and how medical training ignores nutrition while Big Food-friendly myths persist. We hit CGMs in med-ed, GLP-1s, statins' surprising effects on GLP-1, funding unbiased metabolic research, and whether long-term keto is not just therapeutic but optimal.Where To Find Nick Norwitz:Youtube:  @nicknorwitzMDPhD  Website: https://www.nicknorwitz.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicknorwitz/X: https://x.com/nicknorwitz

When I was growing up, my mother believed the food she fed her family was safe for us to consume. In fact, the 1950's was just the beginning of the corporate takeover of agriculture and food production in the United States. Over the next thirty years it would culminate in Big Ag, Big Chem, and Big Food all having their hey dey producing corporate profits at the expense of American's health. In a properly functioning democracy, the U.S. government - as part of its mandate to protect the common good - would regulate corporate behavior to insure profits were never placed before the safety, health and well-being of people and planet. Yeah, well….that would be nice. Beginning in the 1980's, our government began to promote corporate interests too often at the expense of our well-being. In area after area, corporate profits became America's bottom line. More and more Americans realize this now. We need a world in which the safety, health and well-being of our children takes precedence over an economic trickle-down theory of economics. This is a fundamental way in which we've gone astray, and one of the ways in which in time we will self-correct. My guest today is Bill Freese, science director at Center for Food Safety (CFS), a non-profit organization that supports sustainable agriculture and opposes harmful food production technologies. Take care. Stay informed. We're going to create a more beautiful world.

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince return with another eye-opening episode of MAHA News, kicking off with the “MAHA Tip of the Week” on how cheap tea bags can load your brew with billions of microplastic particles—and why loose leaf tea is the healthier choice. From there, the hosts highlight surprising wins against Big Ag and Big Food, applauding Tyson Foods' decision to drop high fructose corn syrup, sucralose, and harmful preservatives, while noting McDonald's $200M investment in regenerative farming. They skewer politicians like Chuck Grassley for pandering to corn lobbies, call out media hit pieces on RFK Jr., and spotlight MAHA Action rallies planned nationwide. The big story centers on the CDC's vaccine advisory panel overhaul under RFK Jr., including bombshell votes to end universal COVID vax recommendations, delay MMRV shots, and scrap the Hep B shot at birth. With sidebars on illegal Chinese vapes, organ donation reforms, and new supplement launches, the episode delivers MAHA's trademark mix of health news, political fire, and unapologetic truth-telling.

Why does a podcast about capitalism want to talk about science?Modern capitalism and science have evolved together since the Enlightenment. Advances in ship building and navigation enabled the Age of Discovery, which opened up new trade routes and markets to European merchants. The invention of the spinning jinny and cotton in the 18th century spurred textile production. The United States' Department of Defense research and development agency helped create the precursor to the internet. The internet now supports software and media industries worth trillions of dollars. On the flip side, some of America's greatest capitalists and businesses, including Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and Bell Labs, gave us everything from electricity production to the transistor. Neither science nor capitalism can succeed without the other.However, science's star is now dimming. Part of this is due to political intervention. In the U.S., the federal government has cut funding for scientific research. The Covid-19 pandemic diminished the public's trust in scientific experts, which social media has exacerbated through misinformation. Restrictions on immigration may further hamper scientific research as some of the world's brightest minds lose access to funding and state-of-the-art facilities.But so too has capitalism played a hand in science's struggles. While corporations sponsor a significant portion of funding for scientific research, this funding too often comes with undisclosed conflicts of interest. Or corporate pressure may influence results in other ways.Stanford University professor John Ioannidis is a physician, writer, and one of the world's most-cited scientists. He studies the methodology and sociology of science itself: how the process and standards for empirical research influence findings in ways that some may find inaccurate. His 2005 essay "Why Most Published Research Findings Are False" is one of the most accessed articles in the history of Public Library of Science (PLOS), with more than three million views. Ioannidis joins Bethany and Luigi to discuss the future of the relationship between capitalism and science, how both will have to respond to contemporary politics, and how one even conceptualizes robust measurements of scientific success.Listen:Science for Sale, with David Michaels: Learn how corporate-funded science uses doubt to its patrons' advantage.The Money Behind Ultra-Processed Foods, with Marion Nestle: Examine the role of Big Food in public health.The Capitalisn't of the U.S. COVID Response: Understand the factors that exacerbated the pandemic's fallout for the most vulnerable in society.Read:Food for Thought: An excerpt from the second edition of Marion Nestle's book, Food Politics: How the Food Industry Influences Nutrition and Health.How Conflicts of Interest Shape Trust in Academic Work: What is the impact of various conflicts of interest on readers' trust in academic research findings?

Food is supposed to nourish us, but what if the system that produces our food is actually making us sick? According to Stuart Gillespie, a veteran of global nutrition and development, that's exactly what's happening. He argues that Big Food has become a machine designed less to feed people than to maximize profit, leaving behind a trail of obesity, malnutrition, and environmental damage. But Stuart says there's a way out. His new book is called Food Fight: From Plunder and Profit to People and Planet.

Exposing Big Food, Big Pharma, and the Path to True Health In this week's episode, Marcus, Melanie meet with Calley Means — entrepreneur, healthcare reform advocate, and co-founder of TrueMed. Calley has been making waves in the national conversation about health, nutrition, and the systems driving chronic disease. As a former consultant to some of the largest food and pharmaceutical companies in the world, Calley offers a rare insider's perspective on how financial incentives can prioritize profits over people. Now, through TrueMed, he's working to flip the script — helping Americans use tax-free health savings accounts to pay for food, exercise, wellness coaching, and other preventative health measures. Calley is also the co-author (with his sister) of the bestselling book Good Energy, which explores the connection between metabolism and health, and he's an investor in companies tackling metabolic health, mental health, and longevity. A graduate of Stanford University and Harvard Business School, Calley also co-founded Anomalie, a custom bridal brand later acquired by David's Bridal. In this powerful and eye-opening conversation, Calley shares: •How his insider view of Big Food and Big Pharma shaped his mission to reform healthcare •The shocking incentives that drive the chronic disease crisis in America •How TrueMed empowers people to use HSAs and FSAs for healthy living •The link between metabolism, mental health, and performance — and why it matters for every American •Why systemic change requires both personal responsibility and policy reform Whether you're a health professional, a parent trying to improve your family's nutrition, or simply curious about the future of healthcare, this episode will challenge assumptions and offer practical solutions. Don't miss this episode with Calley Means — a candid, informed, and inspiring discussion on how we can take back control of our health. In this episode you will hear: • [Marcus] We turned a vegan into a meat-eater. A vegetarian was working at our house and smelled [Mama Holly's Prime Rib] and said “What is that?” And I said that's prime rib and said “I'm a vegetarian.” I said “I don't know man. I think you might give this one a whirl.” (3:20) • Pharmaceutical is about 50% of TV advertising. (5:50) • The 2 ways you get researchers money is just research grants (that's their life blood) and direct bribes. (7:10)  • Anxiety was created as a sub-category of medicine in the 1970s, explicitly by pharmaceutical companies who had Valium to sell. (8:21) • If you can make obesity a national standard and tell people it's not you fault and jab them for a lifetime – that's a profitable patient. (18:33) • 25% of women are on some kind of psychiatric drugs, That produces reoccurring appointments and prescriptions. (20:01) • A doctor is a medical drug doctor. They're a drug prescriber. Who made that rule? That's not how it is in other countries. (22:51) • [Marcus] If you tell yourself your body is a racecar, or a fighter jet, or a monster truck, what kind of fuel are you putting in that sucker? (36:40) • If you can get seed oils, processed sugar and processed grains out of you house, that gets you about 80% there [the single most important thing a household could do.] • I think people should be more scared. I think we should have apps and blood tests and doctors telling people “You're not gonna make it through your life to meet your grandkids.” (41:57) • [Farmers] have low prices, high input costs, more weather challenges, trade issues that aren't their fault. They're taking it from all fronts. (59:05) • The system is built for drugs, not medicine right now. Drugs are profitable, healing is not profitable. Thriving is not profitable.

Episode 2698 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss mixed messages in nutrition, MAHA, and the need to stop the insanity. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/09/stop-the-insanity-episode-2698 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Stop the Insanity Chris and Vinnie strategize on how to get more followers using AI. (2:00) They discuss Catholic school sex ed from when Vinnie was in school. (10:00) Using this as an example of contradictory messaging and hypocrisy. Mixed messages are the reasons behind many of the issues in the health of society today. (16:00) There are claims that obesity isn't related to personal choice. (17:30) Disadvantaged communities struggle since so many processed foods are cheap, and that can be true. (18:00) The other claim has to do with poor gut health, which Vinnie doesn't believe. (18:30) Vinnie believes it has to do with misinformation and following the federal dietary guidelines. MAHA appears to be divisive for various reasons. (27:30) They discuss some of the concerns expressed about changing the SNAP problem, including expense and waste. But it seems there should be workarounds to resolve the concerns, so stop the insanity. Big Food and Big Pharma aren't likely to want the changes, it seems. (45:00) They discuss Alpha-gal syndrome, which is an allergy to red (mammalian) meat and sometimes dairy. (47:00) It is caused by a tick bite. Other meats, like chicken and fish, can still be eaten, so there's no real need to go vegan. Apparently, Martha's Vineyard is a hotbed of Alpha-gal. (53:00) They discuss how expensive certain farmers' markets are. If you are interested in the NSNG® VIP group, it will be reopening soon.

In 1985, scientists in Antarctica discovered a hole in the ozone layer that posed a catastrophic threat to life on earth if we didn't do something about it. Then, something amazing happened: humanity rallied together to solve the problem.Just two years later, representatives from all 198 UN member nations came together in Montreal, CA to sign an agreement to phase out the chemicals causing the ozone hole. Thousands of diplomats, scientists, and heads of industry worked hand in hand to make a deal to save our planet. Today, the Montreal protocol represents the greatest achievement in multilateral coordination on a global crisis.So how did Montreal happen? And what lessons can we learn from this chapter as we navigate the global crisis of uncontrollable AI? This episode sets out to answer those questions with Susan Solomon. Susan was one of the scientists who assessed the ozone hole in the mid 80s and she watched as the Montreal protocol came together. In 2007, she won the Nobel Peace Prize for her work in combating climate change.Susan's 2024 book “Solvable: How We Healed the Earth, and How We Can Do It Again,” explores the playbook for global coordination that has worked for previous planetary crises.Your Undivided Attention is produced by the Center for Humane Technology.

Episode 2695 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss a listener's bizarre health report, how labeling lies matter, and not limiting your goals. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/09/labeling-lies-matter-episode-2695 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Labeling Lies Matter Scott, a listener, was in horrible shape, but a family member called CPS services because they were worried for his well-being. (2:00) They thought he was going through a mental health challenge because he was eating healthfully and trying to become active. Protective Services observed him for 3 months to ensure nothing was wrong. But now, the family is on board. (7:00) The ridiculous viewpoint appears to be that a person must be mentally unstable for trying to eat low-carb and for eating more healthfully. (11:00) Vinnie's “Dirty Keto” documentary was prophetic. Companies had started marketing products labeled “keto” that were still junk. (17:00) Lawsuits are popping up based on claims made on certain keto product labels. LMNT electrolytes is being called out for the use of things like maltodextrin hidden under the canopy of “natural flavors.” (21:00) It's interesting to see people start to push back against Big Food. (27:00) “Keto Certified” is not something the FDA actually does. Washington, D.C, is one of the most expensive places to live in the United States, and it's not a coincidence that it's filled with luxury shopping areas. (37:00) Back to the RFK fitness challenge video (link below for reference). (43:00) Some view it as unfeasible for most people, so they shouldn't even try. (45:00) The moral of the story is to try something new and set goals. Get started at the level you can begin now, and set incremental goals. The goal isn't the problem—the problem is the limited mindset. (54:00) If you are interested in the NSNG® VIP group, it will be reopening soon.

What if the foods you think are healthy are actually disrupting your biology? From sugar marketed as a performance tool to “whole grains” that drive cravings, this episode uncovers how hidden traps in modern nutrition can hijack your brain, wreck your metabolism, and accelerate aging. You'll learn how to rethink daily eating so it fuels energy, resilience, and long-term health instead of quietly sabotaging it.

Sincere question. At a minimum - who in government is actively trying to improve the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness for Americans? It would be impossible to say Democrats. Whether they're fighting President Trump on deporting illegal alien criminals, developing more energy sources, reducing crime in our major cities, or challenging Big Food and Pharma to make Americans healthy again - Democrats simply can't abide Trump success. Meanwhile, the President assures everyone yesterday he's alive and well as he moves the Space Force, blows Venezuelan drug cartels out of the water (literally), and pledges to fight activist judges on his tariffs to save the country economically. We get into the law surrounding tariffs and other matters with Mark Weaver. John Hayward from Bretibart discusses the eyebrow raising meeting between Inda, China, and Russia. And meet a candidate and former judge taking on a Soros-backed DA in Philadelphia. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

August 31, 2025 Welcome back to Grifty, the podcast where cult wellness, corporate greed, and authoritarian politics meet at a potluck dinner nobody wanted. Tonight's theme is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again plan, better known as MAHA. The Trump team is branding it as a health revolution. But peel back the organic avocado sticker and it looks more like the same old MAGA project: pretend to fight for wellness while quietly dismantling the science and institutions that actually keep people alive. Let's dig in. ⸻ Segment 1: The Food Fight Nobody Ordered Robert F. Kennedy Jr., serving as Trump's Health Secretary, launched MAHA to target ultra-processed foods, artificial dyes, and chemical additives. Big food corporations such as Kraft Heinz, Mars, and Kellogg have already pledged to remove synthetic dyes by 2027 under mounting pressure (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-robert-kennedy-maha-food-plan)). Supporters frame MAHA as consumer protection. Critics see Kennedy using it to market himself as America's wellness crusader while sidelining medical professionals and spreading distrust in vaccines and science. Questions:     1.    Is this food reform real progress or just wellness-washed authoritarianism     2.    Should we be celebrating slightly cleaner Pop Tarts while the CDC is gutted behind the scenes ⸻ Segment 2: Polls Love Food Reform, Hate Science According to an Axios Ipsos survey, 87 percent of Americans support stronger food safety rules, with bipartisan backing (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Nobody is begging for more Red Dye No. 40. But vaccines remain a dividing line. Gallup found that Republicans are significantly less supportive of childhood vaccinations than Democrats, leaving MAHA as a unifying food crusade that simultaneously deepens America's science divide (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Food For Thought:     1.    Does this prove people only support science when it is about snacks     2.    What does it mean when food safety unites but basic vaccines divide ⸻ Segment 3: GOP Breaks Up With Big Food The Republican Party has suddenly distanced itself from Big Food. Instead of defending corporations, GOP leaders are aligning with suburban parents worried about chemical exposure and warning labels on junk food (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). But corporate donors are not walking away quietly. Agricultural giants like Mountaire and Reyes Holdings are resisting regulation, and their financial influence means the fight is just beginning. Questions:     1.    What happens when Republicans break up with Big Food, and who is their rebound     2.    How long before Fox News says Biden wants to ban Oreos ⸻ Segment 4: MAHA's War on Science The Trump administration is using MAHA to undermine public health. The CDC is being overhauled and senior scientists are resigning in protest of political interference and Kennedy's rejection of mRNA technologies (The Hill (https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/5475599-trump-administration-overhauls-cdc/amp/)). Experts warn this is not temporary. Cutting research programs and pushing conspiracy rhetoric risks decades of progress in medicine and public health Questions:     1.    What does America look like when essential oils replace vaccines     2.    How do we measure the long term cost of this brain drain from the CDC ⸻ Segment 5: Killing Cancer Research While Posing As Wellness Saviors While Trump and Kennedy promote MAHA as a children's health movement, they are simultaneously dismantling federal programs designed to find cures for cancer, Alzheimer's, and ALS (House Appropriations Committee (https://democrats-appropriations.house.gov/news/press-releases/trump-team-dismantles-efforts-find-cure-cancer-and-other-deadly-disorders-and)). The cruelty is in the timing. The New York Times reported promising breakthroughs from a new pediatric brain cancer trial group just this week (New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/well/pediatric-brain-cancer-trial-group.html)). While researchers bring hope to families, Washington is choking off the funding that sustains them. Questions:     1.    How do you square calling yourself pro child health while cutting cancer research     2.    Is this just political theater that uses kids as props ⸻ Segment 6: MAHA 2026 Political Weaponized Wellness Kennedy and Trump are positioning MAHA as a key wedge issue for the 2026 midterms. The strategy is to woo suburban women, independents, and younger voters with promises of food safety and wellness transparency (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/24/rfk-jr-maha-strategy-2026-midterms)). The contradiction is glaring. They say they care about your family's health, yet they are dismantling the very systems that could save your family from disease. It is not Make America Healthy Again. It is Make America Hypocritical Always. Questions:     1.    Is this wellness movement just MAGA wrapped in Whole30 branding     2.    How do Democrats fight back against a political cleanse disguised as health reform ⸻ OUTRO That is MAHA in all its kale washed glory. A movement pretending to save you from Lucky Charms while cutting off cancer research and gutting public health. This is violence with branding. Trump and Kennedy are not protecting families, they are using wellness as a mask for authoritarian power. Kendrick Lamar. Please take us out.

Bobby Kennedy, Jr. seemed on the right track when he launched his “Make America Healthy Again” campaign.Well, not the wacky-quacky part of that agenda, where he teeters off into the prickly thicket of medical voodoo and vaccine bugaboos. But he was onto something fundamentally important when he began to rally public opposition to the arrogance, greed, and willful destructiveness of pesticide peddlers and other Big Food profiteers.As Secretary of Health, Kennedy pushed Trump's “presidential commission on children's health” to take long-overdue action to rein-in those agribusiness contaminators of our food supply and natural resources. He called for limits and outright bans on industrial ag and food processing abuses that grow corporate profits at the expense of healthy kids.Great!But wait – the commission's draft report is now out, and none of Kennedy's most meaningful stuff is in it. None! There's no suggestion, for example, that even the most toxic cancer-causing pesticides should be outlawed, permanently removed from food products and our environment.What happened? Money. While Kennedy was publicly talking a good game, Big Food profiteers were paying a million dollars each to have intimate talks at private dinners with Trump. And when money talks, political integrity walks.Sadly, rather than resigning in protest of Trump's whitewash and rallying America's families to carry this betrayal into next year's elections, Kennedy is hyping the report's empty calories as a people's victory! But he can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure. Grassroots groups themselves call the gutted report “beyond laughable,” “profoundly disappointing” and “dangerous.”For genuine, structural change in food policy, go to Environmental Working Group: ewg.org.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

Episode 2681- Vinnie Tortorich welcomes dietitian Michelle Hurn, and they discuss disrupting Big Food, lobbying for truth, and the downsides of shortcuts. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/08/downsides-of-shortcuts-michelle-hurn-episode-2681 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Lobbying for Truth Michelle Hurn has been a Registered Dietitian for years, but she challenges the current nutrition guidelines. (2:00) Early nutrition guidelines were established by Seventh-day Adventists to eliminate the eating of meat. The facts are lined up and vetted in FAT: a documentary. (6:30) Vinnie curates knowledge of other experts on his show. (11:30) Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has caused some disruption to the messaging; however, as long as Big Pharma and Big Food are allowed to lobby, there won't likely be much change. Lobbying affects both sides of the aisle, and changes have not been made. (18:00) It's part of what has been driving the decrease in metabolic health of our society. (20:00) Being a registered dietician is a challenge; positions in hospitals and schools pay less than half of what Big Food will pay. (22:00) Vinnie shares the story (and misconception) behind “fat burns in the flames of carbohydrates.” (28:00) Michelle shares her story of how she discovered what she had learned was wrong. (34:00) Her health had deteriorated, and she became very ill. It was when she learned about low-carb that she regained her health. Vinnie shares how he figured out how to fuel himself with fat for his ultra races. (40:00) Michelle is a marathon runner and made discoveries of her own, including high-fat/low-carb to fuel her body. (45:00) The Downsides of Shortcuts GLP-1s are all the rage, but nothing in biochemistry is free of consequences. (51:00) You can't affect any one issue in isolation. There are downsides to shortcuts. The side effects are a serious concern. Suppressing ghrelin can suppress hunger, but that means it also suppresses autophagy, which is your body's way of cleaning toxins from its cells. (52:00) They discuss other implications associated with GLP-1s, like loss of muscle tissue. Michelle and Vinnie have both helped numerous people just through the low-carb lifestyle approach alone. (57:00) Those changes alone have gotten people off certain medications and reversed diabetes.

What if the same playbook that made cigarettes addictive is now being used to make our food irresistible? This week we're exploring Ariana Huffington's eye-opening piece about how Big Food borrowed tactics directly from Big Tobacco, using the same scientists and brain research to hook us on ultra-processed foods. We dig into a groundbreaking lawsuit that's drawing explicit connections between food companies and tobacco giants, and why this might be our "big tobacco moment" for the food industry. From a 1962 memo revealing that tobacco companies saw themselves as being "in the flavor business" to the staggering health costs we're paying today, this episode connects the dots between corporate strategy and our current health crisis - and explains why there's actually reason for hope.
