Ad-free Episodes & Dr. Hyman+ Audio Exclusives We are getting
sicker every day from cheap, addictive junk food. The food industry
approaches food as “engineering projects,” with the end goal of
creating “heavy users”—a disturbing internal term used by food
manufacturers that helps them make as much money as possible at the
expense of public health. It’s time we take a look at the
intentional manipulation of our taste buds and the politics that
support these practices. In today’s episode, I talk with Michael
Moss, Dhru Purohit, Calley Means, and Nina Teicholz about the
formula to get you addicted to junk food and the money spent to
influence you to buy more. This episode is brought to you by Rupa
