link between sugar sweetened beverages and diabetes and we know that is not the case. whenever the soft drink industry is in the dark the same line of defense just gonna be hard to explain. to me. it's a donation more a different reality. is that over and over to. all of us. the rhetoric is so smooth that it seems like a broken record to be ok just because some research shows you know have shown between their conception of sugary beverages and visiting. that. different. questions and we meant different researchers many of them compare the
6:34 am
fight against the consumption of sugary beverage to the side of tobacco what do you . mean here enters. the grandmotherly community. through for 20 years the soft drink industry has denied any link between its products and disease to maintain the illusion it employs all sorts of methods since 2015 coca leaks has revealed that the lobby puts pressure on journalists keeps discredit on studies it dislikes finances favorable research and hob nobs with political leaders. to ensure this results contact was established within the senate we will actively campaign to register that as. off drink tax is discriminatory regressive and will not address the challenge of obesity we have commissioned the economic institute to complete a study which will prove inefficiency of such tax it will be ready in 15 days which

6:36 am
found that every study that found that there was no association between sugary beverage consumption and obese in diabetes was funded in some way by the industry. whereas among all the studies that found that there was an association between the consumption of soda and sugary beverages and obesity diabetes except for one were independently funded so we now know and there's other evidence that industry has been. influencing very deeply the medical and scientific establishment to create controversy over the question of whether their products cause disease. the junk food industry is cornered all over the globe activists are demanding tighter legislation. to protect consumers the battle has now become political. in the 30 years since warning labels and other forms of regulation were placed on

tobacco. over 1000000000 of lives have been saved thanks it's a pretty good day at the office for people who make policy. illegal cohen and one of her fellow supervisors have made san francisco the 1st u.s. city to declare war on sugary sodas. when people realize how much sugar they're consuming in one can of soda they stop and they think so we had testimony right here in this chamber of doctors of nurses of researchers that talk to us about the effects of sugar in our body and it was through these ongoing dialogues for years that we came up with that idea to begin to tax sugary beverages. imposing a tax is virtually revolutionary in the united states. industry reached its
6:38 am
sad speech the line that the government was interfering with grocery shoppers. leading a family is difficult enough in today's economy now some politicians want the government telling me how i should do it they want to put new taxes i'm on a grocery side by the beverage the sugary beverage and history came out they hired lawyers they hired lobbyists they found people within the community to come out and say please don't tell us what to eat or what to drink this is not a nanny state we want to make decisions on our own they spent millions of dollars as a matter of fact they outspent us almost $6.00 to $1.00 me a break i can just side what to buy without government help the government is just getting too involved in our personal lives tell the candidates government is to to image booklet. health advocates were able to mobilize citizen protests against the recalcitrant industry we're going to. this bad doctors and politicians lining up

6:53 am
president sebastian pinera official veto then he had to overcome the industry's campaign to denigrate him. finally the law passed in 2016 it was the type of song agribusiness dreads most. $950.00 mostly men to come in there say you have given me the country that this date is what he wanted i'm going to be made of a single letter yet that it will also be a if then it will look. a lot simply for the matter of your puppet i mean that's so stupid that it will just sound stupid in which i would ask you if you're going to get so wound. up when you're say son you want on your say son you're. going to steal by. us what then don't get it
6:54 am
and you know at least that the little of that in with you know the you know to say do you mean we do need to seek it out why does it didn't exist when it isn't and then clearly yes and the national guard is yes there's something subtle so useful in that i live that is not that was limited it was in memphis. you know we will succeed in the world. move within it will be celebrating soon. you know i think i want to see another you should know where that it will be sitting for a minute nowhere near where i was not with the digits no with an adventure forsooth i don't know where the narrator bit of a goes into winter but i mean you'll remember said you know through t.v. we're going to. be in the precinct and you'll say good little bitch smyrna looking for you to pull up but those who took us from that it just will keep on us for this when you do if inciting to you know us and what mean you eat some of us have bill
6:55 am
for those. who come in been up to some that have been you but i don't you boy so there you go from pursuit a lot of them didn't look at. what the industry argued that the legislation would be ineffective and would penalize the poor but only 2 years after going to affect a virtuous circle for. love one of the 2nd family. in the novel that i thought more laughs about killing then a hobby of the child about bigamy come an impulse he would let. that enable to get me money sick i mean of course it does look a little hans he ought to for more now you little boy. i think i love it but when it seems all if i suppose the least that i'm. not going to say you have a textbook. to give up on them. when that same 18 month we saw 25 percent reduction and purchases of sugary
6:56 am
beverages and children. that's unprecedented and we're seeing large reductions of all the ultra processed junk foods as well as of the community that is the 1st time we've seen the glimmer of a country that might change the norms toward healthy eating. the chilean food revolution has inspired action in neighboring countries peru has instituted the same labels and uruguay is about to do so and dramatically mexico is joining them and its new president and congress have just passed new legislation requiring the same kind of labeling rice chili with my job. on the other side of the atlantic the contrast is striking europe's nutri score labeling is fairly termit compared to the black labels in chile only a few countries have adopted it and it is not even mandatory.

6:59 am
so what males have tended to do and still do is is we tend to we certainly have empathy all of that but we also tend to do nurture through aggression so we create things like soccer and football and you know all of the various hundreds of games that involve aggression you know women are aggressive and can play those games no doubt very well but when you go back to why they were created those games were created for males to nurture other males through aggression to teach them how to be of capek's through aggression.
