Welcome to another episode of Gut Heroes! In this episode, I dive into a groundbreaking new report released by the World Health Organisation. It sheds light on the staggering influence of four major industries - tobacco, ultra-processed foods, fossil fuels, and alcohol. The report reveals the shocking tactics employed by powerful corporations to maximise profits at the expense of people's well-being. It includes:
✔️ How these 4 industries cause a whopping 19 million deaths per year globally (34% of all deaths) ✔️ Ultra-processed food industry tactics: delaying and blocking health policies, misleading marketing, targeting vulnerable populations ✔️ The consequences of failing to regulate harmful industry practices: declining public health and chronic diseases ✔️ Proposed solutions: stricter regulations on marketing, transparency, lobbying and conflicts of interest
