The real solution is for the people to control the food industry. And how do you do that? You just simply stop buying their product and watch them change.
Why do so many Americans struggle with obesity despite knowing the health risks? Dr. David Bissonnette, an associate professor of nutrition and author of 'Insatiable: A Nation’s Unappeasable Hunger', joins the 'American Medicine Today' hosts to tackle this pressing question. The conversation dives into the startling statistics: nearly two-thirds of Americans are overweight, and about 40% are obese. Dr. Bissonnette argues that our food environment, filled with cleverly marketed, highly processed foods, plays a huge role.
These foods are designed to hit our pleasure centers with the perfect mix of fat, sugar, and salt, making them hard to resist. But there's hope. Dr. Bissonnette believes that by choosing whole foods and supporting local produce, individuals can take control of their diets and push back against the food industry's manipulative tactics. He also touches on the impact of artificial sweeteners and the radical changes needed to curb this epidemic.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the deeper issues fueling America's obesity crisis and looking for practical advice on making healthier choices.
