### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Courage In Writing
  

*by A***O on Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2019*

This is the story of how corporate interests direct and control university research in nutrition. Nestle documents the influence of commodity groups in directing research aimed at finding the good news about industry’s favorite foods. It’s science with an agenda. As she jokes ; if people are anxious about erectile dysfunction, the scientist can find a berry for that. Her writing is punctuated with short pithy sentences that drive the point home. Remember how Michael Pollon summed up his nutritional advise in just seven words? Her style has a cadence that makes learning smooth. It’s a small thing to suspect media reports touting nutritional benefits are just marketing ploys. It’s more serious when the dependence of university researchers on corporate dollars is well documented by Nestle’s diligent work. A 2016 examination of documents ( provided by other researchers ) from the Sugar Research Foundation gives us a disturbing picture of Harvard’s Fred Stare and his pernicious influence on dietary policy. Sugar is more serious than just empty calories. The obesity epidemic is shortening lives. And, politically, our democracy is at stake. Nestle’s insight into the corruption in science is very disturbing indeed. Corporations run the world. She advises us to recognize the loss of independence for university scientists and believes steps can be taken to reign in excessive corporate control of research. To take control of your health you need to see how the line between science and food marketing has been blurred.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Sobering
  

*by E***T on Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2018*

First part destroy nutrition myths, based on investigations supported by food industries. Unfortunately, the second part, regarding interests conflicts in research, turns a bit technical. Anyway, as Miss Marion used to be, this book create consciousness about what we eat.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Technical but next level
  

*by I***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2018*

Nestle (no relation to Nestle’ the brand) is an expert in her field. But warning this book is next level-technical especially in the last chapters.
