me ah me, the obesity epidemic is the most important international health problem. me let me dive if i need to. i think we saw the basal into anything. just the factory. it's a man made tragedy. ah, earlier my life. i thought that my weight was all my fault. i felt like a failure and frankly unworthy. ready and it took me awhile

to really start question, leave and challenging those thoughts like well are you are really a failure? and the answer is no, i'm not. i'm not. but it took a while to get to the point, the obesity. a blob of our arrows fantasies caught in a web of prejudice. it prompts scolding for poor choices and accusations of laziness. liberty genes provide an alibi. what it will be city where a collected failure, not an individual one symptom of a free market that hates that, that produces fax, those and a b for genic society. the news, the global phenomenon, not one country to talk today. ah,

the right now there are 2000000000 people adults and children who are overweight or. busy obese, this doesn't happen by magic, it takes work and you need to look at who it is, is driving that process. well, otherwise we'll live in, in societies in which, you know, one on of every 3 people has diabetes where everybody's obese, where people are dying of stroke and heart attack at age 40. i mean, the choice is an obvious one. if we don't do something, we will collapse as society is not just in america, but in mexico and russia, and china and europe. it's happening everywhere. mm. almost everywhere in the world, men and women are battling this fate. political leaders, physicians, regular citizens. they brave the multinational. ah, we truly believe that the industry is wrong and that they're poisoning and

targeting people, and people need to know about it. ah, wielding the weapons of law science and public policy. they want to help us regain control of our bodies with me. the in the 1st years of the 21st century western countries declared war on obesity. to no avail. experts estimate that by 2030 there will be 250000000 obese children in the world. the government taken the right pack ah, ah, at least 2 such men and women in the u. k. or as a way to break finding

the bay city life changing impacts on the body slowly lower your quality of life. ah. according to the messages spread far and wide, we alone are to blame for our weight. that people are simply gluttons unable to control their appetites. you have a choice, make the change the we are told it's up to us. but is it really? for me, the most difficult segmented. copeland is this idea that the people have no willpower. the people and larger bodies people to be so i don't know if they will power or else they wouldn't carry excess weight because we're told so often

that that's all it takes to lose weight. go to the gym, follow this diet program. you know, if you just stick to it, you'll get there. i was sure that a little personal will power was all it would take to lay obesity exercise more became the mantra of the 2000. it would go around the world. ah. so let's start moving. let's start pushing, twisting, climbing, and raising the roof. let's start moving more every day for 30 minutes or 6 feet. and if you feel like stopping, you can always start back up. let's start moving. it's so easy for us to look at being person and say they have such will power. they're so moral and strong. and then look at someone with a weight problem and attribute all of these negative traits. oh, they're just weak. they don't have willpower. it's not at the individual level,

it's not individual willpower. and if we go on believing that or never change this obesity epidemic, hey everybody, you know, getting active every day helps us all be healthy and feel great. the same old ernest advised about exercise is proffered that the best intentions in 2010. michelle obama launched the campaign against child abuse and he got to 1st lady her therapy session to move your body aiming to set healthier standards for food, served in school lunch. when we send our kids to school, we have a right to expect that they will be eating the kind of fatty salty, sugary foods that we're trying to keep from them when they are at home. unfortunately, michelle obama was on the right track right from the beginning. and i think she got derailed by a mixture of bad advisors. and by bringing in the food,

the food companies and they were able to dilute very powerful message down to something where, you know, it's just her on television, encouraging people to move that way rather than, let's move together as a movement to be able to transform the system, the better became moved more just to be on the easily upstage the public service message a boon to the multi nationals who quickly joined the dance in 2015 from coca cola created the global energy balance network. a worldwide think tank dedicated to solving the obesity problem gets out by promoting exercise. most of the focus in the popular media and in the scientific breath, is there eating too much eating too much eating too much? blaming fast food, blaming sure,

very drinks and so on. and there's really virtually no compelling evidence of that . in fact, is the car professor sees blair, is one of the head researchers recruited for the network. he's a specialist in physical exercise that may be the reason they're eating more calories than they need is because they're not burning many. so we need to be in balance. initial syndic transitional do here. okay. cuz it passes all the money back corner. so kyla, don't, i guess she'll be here because they do, jeff bon, i'm just gonna put you on the phone with the okay, here's how that translates into marketing. i just wanna be ok. the industry has been focused on the story of calories and calories out. no, you can drink what you want. just go, go on and jog and work off your calories. well,

we know that actually is not true. that's not the true story. me allegedly, to avoid waking, we would simply have to burn the same number of calories as we eat. the theory sounds logical. unfortunately, it is untrue. physical exercise actually plays a minor role and weight control. you have to jog for one hour to eliminate a hamburger a pick. so though requires over 2 hours of running if you look at it from a calorie perspective, that is the accumulation equals sort of calories in minus calories out. and they say, well that's always true because if you look at from, from a physics perspective, that is always true. but the problem is that that's the physics and we're dealing with human physiology and really has nothing to do with each other. i think we should take the focus off of calories. yes, you can eat less and lose weight for a short while,

but your body will fight back. and over the long term, we know that metabolism is stronger than willpower. me, alright. if individual will power is not to blame. what caught the deep rise nearby city curve starting in the 1980. so what's the difference between 970 and 2019? while i don't think it's the basic biology of the person, but it's something to do with the way that we eat both the types of food and the frequency of the foods that we me and 40 years are eating habits of under gone are real revolution fermented by public health policies of the late 19 seventies. at the time, cardiovascular disease was the grim reaper, causing millions of them. the senate special committee on nutrition looking into the connection between diet and hawkins. the sugar lobby

succeeded in having a high fat diet declared guilty of false verdict, but had serious consequences. public health officials recommended that we could use our intake as fast grains coded as collateral, free replace meat as a stable food and so eating more brad more bryce. more potatoes, for example, because they're very low fat and, you know, eating less dairy less meet low fat dairy. that kind of thing. that was the standard advice for so many years. and i think that is the most likely culprit as to why people have gain weight u. s. government called on the food industry to market thousands of processed foods that were reduced in fat and saturated fat. so if you're the food industry and you're supposed to reduce fat, what are you going to replace it with? well processed grains and sugar. the grow industry,

slight of hand, made the transition payment, sugar, a cheaper placement for fat made light. casey and chemist went to work extruding, ingredient, supermarket shelves filled with attractively package starchy reprocessed, the bread, cornflakes, and convenience to the food industry did what they were told. they were happy to do it because sugar is actually cheaper than fat. so they could increase their and call these products headphones. public ultimately paid the price to $1.00 man you knew were the one in for children here right now is overweight. one of the big reasons with our thinking, we give them biscuit sweets, kristen chocolate. every day. eating excessive sugar causes deep dysfunctions inside our bodies, starting with

a hormone imbalanced. when you eat certain hormones go off and the main hormone that's involved in energy metabolism is insulin enjoy determines whether the calories we eat, get burned, or get stored as fat. ah the i don't know some steps in there were rescuing the food that they were not scabbing or were rescuing resources that are still good. this is best by march 21st. which is in 2 days. all these potatoes hall panels, onions. all of these came from waste brown sources. this is

great for me because i'm always looking for a way to give things away. dr. because the tax laws, you know, definitely do benefit the wealthier people and our society. so that makes sense for them to throw it out right off, rather than give it to somebody who could use it. and then that person is not going to buy it. who want to make note? you know, board is adams, my number is emerge. we don't have authority, we go to the back seen the whole world leads to take action and be ready. people are judge. 2 governors crisis we can do better, we should be better. everyone is contributing each in their own way, but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is paid for

the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we need together in glucose sugar and that is fuels nearly all living cells. when we eat, our pancreas secretes insulin. and this instantly is what transports sugar to ourselves. and our diet for heavy and foods that are starchy and sweet by processed foods. in fact, our insulin levels are constantly high ah. with too much in our fat cells. the fat tissue in our body takes up to many

calories and hold on to them. so there aren't enough calories for the rest of the body. there aren't enough calories for the muscle for the organs in the brain. and that's why we get hungry. so these highly processed food, fast foods should read beverages and junk foods that were snacking on the digest very quickly. but they don't provide much satiety. so it's these processed carbohydrates driveway to, ah, despite the negative impact these ultra process food, tablet, metabolism, nothing has stopped there. spread with its profitable to sell food that is fatty and sugary and faulty and addictive is much less profitable to sell food that is wholesome. that is high in fiber and is minimally processed. so what's driving the obesity epidemic?

it's corporate probably me this. dietary revolution has bothered empires. next, you know, lever coca cola kellogg's pepsi co. currently, a handful of huge corporations. nearly every brand of food. together, they pull in $500000000000.00 in annual sales and have taken control of our dinner plate, the food. because a huge sector by society, it's not only the food company, it's not just the nestle and dan ohms, and coke and pepsi. it's the food retailers at the walmart and curry force. it's the agra businesses are huge that control all the supplies commodities. and then also the marketers, it's all the advertises, making money from marketing junk food and beverages to people. so we're talking

about massive, massive component of our society is focused on showing the world unhealthy food and beverage of the food. multi nationals have a secret weapon price. the products they sell are up to 60 percent cheaper than fresh foods. the shoppers with the smallest budget stuck up with these low income consumers. sitting ducks are the primary victims of the system. the the, the hamilton family lives in one of washington's poorest neighborhoods. a few miles from the white house. the fresh produce is nearly impossible to find within walking distance. yes

or so you've got the washington wealthier areas be city rate is 10 percent here it effects 42 percent of the population. today's new features, not ground beef and tomato sauce, with extra sugar garnished with sour cream. one last meal in the body. that guy will not be in jesus name. we do pray. a miss, a man locally owned family restaurant had abandoned the hamilton's inner city neighborhood. fast

food chains rushed in to fill the vacuum. their impact is multiplied by an implacable marketing strategy that starts on the street corner. the food industry says it's your fault, but the reality is they've changed the whole food environment. they've created a food environment where every place you turn, if it's on your smartphone, if it's on seeing a billboard, if it's seeing any kind of advertisement. if it's watching television movies, you see their junk food being pushed. the manipulation starts with the children. the find to big studies show there is a direct link between the ad children see and the types of food they like to eat. the world health organization recommends regulating food commercials on tv,

but the industry is ingenuous. it infiltrates new areas, like social networks, or online game. that's what marketing is supposed to do. that's what it's designed to do. they're very good at it. so the marketing was successful. the question is, was it helpful? the my help? the sleek marketing hides the fact that junk food causes one of the most devastating diseases that exists. diabetes today, it kills one person every 6 seconds around the world. 25 years ago. if i told you that i have an 18 year old patient in my clinic with type 2 diabetes, you would have said, oh my gosh, it's incredible. it's so rare. and so strange. now it's very commonplace that young

people, children have type 2 diabetes. no, we're like fighting a war at home. it's heartbreaking. it's unfair, it's unjust. people are making money off of this suffering. it's preventable. it's. it's dehumanizing to ignore it. it's inhumane to ignore it. was kenny h 141 and willie 15 must take diabetes, medication daily or killing those. it's actually math suicide in a way in a country like mine. we don't give them health insurance and they've got the diabetes and they have the hypertension. we're killing a generation of poor the

one of every 2 african american children will develop diabetes. one of every 5 african american children is obese. the rate is even higher among hispanics. a young woman spoke out and triggered a rebellion. we eat like we still play. yesterday i decided to write down some really is my day to big diet part. that was a 1000000 things back from now. and then that was sugar. flour, sugar jargon in room post or white powder, high food pulse for sugar died a little 40 died brands to dive. dad died. i heard a young woman who was 16 at the time and she performed a poem that even though it may remain the hair on my arm stand up. and for the 1st time i saw a young person describing the obesity and diabetes epidemic as

a social problem. and i realized that she in a way is a much more effective messenger than i ever could be in christopher, i haven't even now diabetes. that is why i is like suicide news. jean shillinger is coordinating the energy his nonprofit youth speaks of writing workshops for young people in the bay area. he wants to use wrap and smoke and where to raise consciousness and thwart food and st propaganda. this idea that they were being lied to, that's what inspired them to become change agent. that's what turned their palm from being a piece of art into a weapon. armed with talent and

a video camera, they launched an awareness campaign called the bigger picture. so for me, each one of those films as a stone that we were throwing at at the waterhole and trying to see which one could make the biggest ways always do that. but the middle, my debbie was seen with the wake up, walked through the bus pass, mcdonald the liquor stores past pop, past the 1st visit to the 2nd bedroom, she ordered my favorite, well, hash brown brown bodies drawer. and i don't know if we love deserting. i just love not being hungry, written and performed chiefly by young hispanics and african americans. the videos garnered over a 1000000 views on youtube. so i, i think awareness makes it possible for people to make choices. i think we're

fighting to be heard. i think we're fighting, get the word out. i think we're fighting against interest that wants to see us fail as long as big, so to spending money, they don't sleep that the campaign a fight against them can't sleep. meanwhile, 3000 miles away on the east coast. another activist has risen up and coming to podium to tell the community it is being decimated. and how is a crisis in our community and from me as a crisis, because i'm finding that i'm losing more people to sweets than i am to the streets . and i'm losing more people took diet related issues than i am to the streets, to gun violence. this is an epidemic, and one that i'm deeply concerned about the

already in his combat against this evil, reverend coats is not inhibited by the conventions associated with his calling. then this can of soda pop. right? there are 39 grams of sugar. 39 grams of sugar in one can of soda. now, how many teaspoons of sugar is that? anyone know how? almost 10 d, as i say, why i want to see how much that is. so pastor coats actually the major demonstration doing a sermon. and so that to me was like so impactful because i just never realized like how much sugar i was actually putting inside of my body every time i would drink a soda. and so i'm doing that at least $7.00 to $8.00 times per day. and maybe a half me,

this is how much sugar is in just one drink and our children are getting pre diabetic by the age of 9. and in borderline diabetes, by the time that 13 years old and we are sabotaging the entire generation of our people because of sugar. people were very shocked. and when he poured the sugar inside the glass, they were like this demonstration show them what they probably should have learned like from childhood. ah, you know, life, it's diverse. that's what makes it interesting. when you have a monoculture, it's dangerously monochromatic. like when you have only one train,

a banana and a banana gets sick. and now there's no more bananas to because there's no more diversity. ah, working room or should she popped in? she said, well, i'm getting ready to go shopping for christmas. and we, we said there was a good device to another, shooting another safe part of american life. shattered by violence. the gunman was armed with an a ar 15 any automatic rifle. when the issue comes home, it's time to act. when we're filing on this issue, the other side wins by default, lady that lived over there because i was walk in, one of the dogs. she said, why do you wear again? were you scared? nothing. i took it off and i think the people need to take responsibility in their own hands and be prepared if those kind of weapons were less available. we wouldn't

have a lot of shootings and we certainly wouldn't have the number down. i think the, the, the top stories, not a disgrace. european law may, can condemn spain and the you over the rest of the castle and separate his leader called jermel, initially after almost 4 years on the run, brussels is strictly paid in parliament for unity. the 9 faces expedition to spain face trial. also this our key back out last case related protest, nice schools and medical facilities, but critics call the ban and infringement of civil liberties. and less than the year after coming to the office, joe biden, to prove the writings following a raft.
