. The Food Pyramid Is a Scam
Many people are waking up to the fact that Americans are getting sicker and sicker each year while spending more time and money than taxpayers in any other country on health care. Clark began by explaining how the food we eat is poisoning us. She calls the food pyramid a “manipulated work of fake public health.”

The food pyramid was created in the 1970s and adopted by the United States in 1992. It has had disastrous results for American health, particularly by minimizing the role of healthy fats and proteins and increasing low-nutrition carbs.

Nutrition expert Dr. Paul Mason has an excellent video detailing the history of the food pyramid. It was created by flawed and inaccurate studies, and heavily influenced by politics and not research. Since the food pyramid was set as a guideline, the average American adult weighs 30 pounds more than Americans did previously!

Secondly, the pyramid’s suggested protein intake is much too low, even though protein is necessary for maintaining and growing muscle, can help decrease unhealthy weight gain, regulates blood glucose, and so much more. Finally, the pyramid’s neglect of healthy fats has led to a misunderstanding of dietary fat, causing many to avoid beneficial fats even though unsaturated fats help lower the risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death in America.

These are just a few problems with the food pyramid. It has had devastating effects on the health of this country.
