On this episode, Dr. O peels back the covers on the shoddy "science" that undergirds the USDA Food Pyramid.

What is the "Food Frequency Questionaire"?

The "which shoe brand do you wear" analogy?
Did you know that the people who make the food are the same people who fund the research? What is "Regulatory Capture"?
