Nothing about industries that have captured legislature?

Bayer/Monsanto (pesticide exposure, water contamination, cancer risk), Tyson Foods (antibiotic resistance, air and water pollution, respiratory illness), American Crystal Sugar Company (obesity, diabetes, heart disease), Koch Industries (pollution, weakened environmental standards), ADM (antibiotic resistance, pollution), Bunge Ltd (antibiotic resistance, pollution), Nutrien (fertilizer runoff, water contamination, cancer risk), Corteva (pesticide exposure, water contamination, cancer risk).

This is so on point, the big money in ag is pushing a lot of these conspiracies. If that's your argument for your diet, it's a shaky one.

I will go that far to admit I don't know what's the healthy diet in the end, because there's too much industry influence anywhere you look.
