Good to see you.

Thanks for having me.

Yes.

I'm excited to be here.

Welcome to the show.

I want to start off with a question, which is around the food system in America.

I am curious, based on your research as a science-based dietitian, is our American food system setting us up to be healthier

or more sick currently as it's set up? Yeah, so I always talk about this. You can set systems up

in order to see the most people succeed or the most people fail, and our food system is set up

very much so for the most people to fail. Really? Yeah. Why is that? Why wouldn't the system be set up for us to succeed? Let's define what we mean by succeed and fail. We mean health, right? Be healthy. Yeah, yeah. Not be the most profitable. Because it is set up for the most people to succeed financially. But if we're talking about our health, it's certainly set up

for the most people to fail. And the reason is because we've built the entire system from

the food we grow to the food we market and sell for profitability at the expense of health.

Not necessarily to make people unhealthy. That's not really the goal. The goal is just like,

well, it may or may not make you unhealthy, right? But that's not really

our primary goal. Our primary goal is profitability. From all of your research in the last few years,

what have been some of the shocking stats you've seen around our health system or around chronic

disease and the health system? Yeah, I mean, so what got me into this field was chronic disease.

So my grandpa was, you know, really close to me, lived a mile down the road, and he was in his

early to mid-60s, and, you know, his early 60s and was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
