The Propaganda Machine Behind the Scenes
The American Heart Association was launched by Procter and Gamble in 1948. In the 1970s, seed oil industry paid scientists to heckle them about trans fats. The research shows that financial corporate interests are involved in nutrition science.
Nina Teicholz is the author of the groundbreaking book The Big Fat Surprise, which exposed many of the conflicts with the established beliefs around saturated fat being inherently "bad". Her work has been cited in the New York Times and several medical journals including The Lancet, The BMJ, and the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Nina has established herself as a thought leader in the world of nutritional policy with much of her work starting with her book and appearances on major media platforms like Joe Rogan and other major news sources. Her efforts to shift the existing narrative overshadowing the existing nutritional dogma have built an entire movement of people looking for alternatives to Big Food and Big Pharma. Nina has shed light on so many important connections and stories through history that have uncovered a larger agenda happening in the world of food. Her experience as a researcher was born out of her studies at Yale and Oxford, and now the former vegetarian (of 25+ years) is helping deconstruct the multiple layers of problematic policies destroying our health.
