You'll never see the claim "eat less"
—————————————————————————————
Apparently Michelle Obama plans to have a war on obesity (why is everyone in the whitehouse always declaring war on things?!?!) and stamp out childhood obesity. Although it sounds like a nobel cause it will go the square root of nowhere once she tries to actually implement any strategies.
The reason this is such a futile effort is because drastic changes require drastic action, and when it comes to weight loss claims and recommendations drastic action is NOT what any industry wants.
Of course the answer for weight loss is to simply eat less. But less of what? Beef? The cattlemans beef association will never let that pass as a policy recommendation. Dairy? The dairy council won’t let that happen. Grains? You know the gran producers will never go for that.
Nope, this initiative will just fade away into meaningless recommendations like “eat more healthy food”…the key word being MORE. The food industry will NEVER allow a national recommendation of eat LESS.
In this podcast we’ll discuss why this will never change and what the message of eat LESS for weight loss, always turns into eat MORE healthy food.
