I recently spoke at a hearing of the 2020 Dietary Guidelines Committee. Watch the highlights and my speech here: Highlights from the 2020 Dietary Guidelines Hearing (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/highlights-from-the-2020-dietary-guidelines-hearing/). 

The sugar industry keeps pretty busy, as you’ll see from my recent videos: Are Fortified Kids’ Breakfast Cereals Healthy or Just Candy? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/Are-Fortified-Kids-Breakfast-Cereals-Healthy-or-Just-Candy) and Sugar Industry Attempts to Manipulate the Science (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/sugar-industry-attempts-to-manipulate-the-science).
