In this follow-up episode of Staying Healthy with Dr. John, Dr. John Poothullil continues his conversation with Marion Nestle, acclaimed nutrition expert and author of What To Eat Now?. In Part Two, they explore how politics, industry, and policy shape the food choices that define America’s health. Nestle explains how lobbying, marketing, and weak regulations have fueled the epidemics of obesity and chronic disease—often putting profits ahead of public well-being.
Together, they discuss how aligning food policy with preventive healthcare could reduce the nation’s chronic disease burden, and what reforms are most urgently needed to protect consumers from misleading marketing and poor nutrition standards. Nestle also shares how empowering people with knowledge, as championed by MAHA’s mission, can help counter the influence of the processed food industry. The conversation concludes with her vision for a national policy that prioritizes education, transparency, and real food as the foundation for a healthier future.
