For more on health entities appeasing the junk food industry, see my video Collaboration With the New Vectors of Disease (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/collaboration-with-the-new-vectors-of-disease). Even the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the registered dietitian organization, has quite the shady history I document near the end of my 2014 annual review presentation From Table to Able (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/from-table-to-able). 

Even cynical me was surprised by my profession’s hostility towards nutrition. See:
• Nutrition Education Mandate Introduced For Doctors (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/nutrition-education-mandate-introduced-for-doctors/)
• Medical Associations Oppose Bill to Mandate Nutrition Training (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/medical-associations-oppose-bill-to-mandate-nutrition-training/)

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/hospitals-selling-sickness/ and he'll try to answer it!
