Can Nutrition Policy Be Purchased? With Sherene Chou

Can Nutrition Policy Be Purchased? With Sherene Chou

Jessica is back with fellow dietitian Sherene Chou for an episode about food conglomerates and their connection to the primary dietitian interest organization, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

Jessica starts by recapping the past week's hysteria about the Siete food brand selling to Pepsico for $1.2B, and asks what that means.

Jessica then discusses the investments that food conglomerates and interest groups make in Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. She talks to Sherene about her experiences in the Academy, from policy to bullying and burnout, and the influence of food and agriculture conglomerates on her work there. Sherene leaves listeners with insight into how the Dietary Guidelines are created.


Stay tuned for a bonus episode about FNCE from Danielle Smiley, the Plastic Surgery Dietitian.
