I am all in favor of Taking Personal Responsibility for Your Health (https://ift.tt/2pOSEVY), but the strong-arm tobacco-style tactics of the multi-trillion dollar food industry are contributing to the deaths of an estimated 14 million people every year. I’ve talked about this before in videos such as: • Food Industry-Funded Research Bias (https://ift.tt/2wZp7Lx) • Big Food Using the Tobacco Industry Playbook (https://ift.tt/2G04wun) • Controversy Over the Trans Fat Ban (https://ift.tt/2xRAzK4) • How the Dairy Industry Designs Misleading Studies (https://ift.tt/2G050AH) • The Food Industry Wants the Public Confused About Nutrition (https://ift.tt/2u82j7J) And specifically about sugar in Sugar Industry Attempts to Manipulate the Science (https://ift.tt/2G052Zl). This is part of an on-going series I’m creating about breakfast cereals, and is a follow-up to The Worst Food for Tooth Decay (https://ift.tt/2Yb5qM3). Are there any healthy cereals? A few make the cut. See The Five-to-One Fiber Rule (https://ift.tt/2G04Byb). Keep your eyes out for the next sugar video, coming out in a few weeks: How to Stop Tooth Decay.
