Description
Americans are increasingly overfed and undernourished, with rapidly growing rates of heart disease and diabetes. Who’s to blame? Food corporations, increasingly on the defensive, have come under fire for their role in feeding America fat and sodium laden foods. As large blue chip companies such as McDonald’s, Coca-Cola and Kraft market healthier foods, are they really offering a solution? And what about the paradoxical lobbying against pragmatic and health driven nutrition policies. This book, written by an attorney and public health expert, educates the professional about the true politics behind the food industry, and how we can educate consumers to be more savvy to shallow marketing and meaningless sound bites.
