It's meant to confuse you.

Food industry has their hand in it.

We need to have really clear labeling laws so people know, like in South America, it's got black stop signs on the front of the package if it's got bad crap in it.

School lunch programs, thank God we have the new guidelines because they're going to influence those programs.

Those will change.

Healthcare reimbursement needs to change.

We're now actually, this is really exciting.

Medicare has just announced a hundred million dollar, a hundred million dollars for studying functional lifestyle medicine to address chronic disease.

This is revolutionary.

It's going to be 30 studies over three years, each funded about three and a half million dollars.

in order to help find out if certain approaches that are different than what we do now are better at improving health outcomes or lowering costs or both.

And once they find that that works, they're going to pay for it.

In other words, insurance will pay for it.

Medicare will pay for it.

That's really exciting.

So Food Fix Uncensored, a new book that I wrote with my wife, actually my old book that we rewrote, kind of updated it, really describes how food policy shapes what ends up on your plate and how our health is.

So it also shows

what policies need to change, and also how you as an individual can make better choices inside a broken system.

So the guidelines are amazing.

To summarize, they're a beginning of a new revolution in food and food policy.
