    #867 - Vani Hari - Exposing The Food Industry’s Dangerous Lies
    Nov 21 2024
    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...

Can't believe only 2 reviews. Fantastic podcast.

Glad this is on Audible. Probably the best podcast. Me and a friend of mine both listen to this podcast on long runs.

Also the sponsorships are actually useful to listen to and relevant, which is unusual.

Disappointed

This probably would have been really good at the beginning but as time goes on, podcasts invite too many guests. Unfortunately some guests and intelligent enough to stick to their area of expertise. Listened to two episodes and was left disappointed. I found them to be a waste of time rather than "modern wisdom"
