According to a study performed by the Commonwealth Fund, Americans are sicker than ever while spending more on healthcare than any other country.

Let that fact sink in for a moment. For a developed nation, we expect so much better for our country and we desperately want to see change.

So why are Americans spending so much on healthcare, and still getting sicker? it seems that the answer isn't in your medicine cabinet - it's in your pantry. We’re taking a look into the dirty alliance between Big Food, Big Pharma, and the politicians who enable them. From high fructose corn syrup in everything to SNAP benefits funding junk food addiction, we're exploring the system that's literally killing us for profit.

Every dollar you spend is a vote for the kind of food system you want. Every conversation you have about this topic chips away at the lies we've been told. Every time you choose real food over processed garbage, you're fighting back against a system designed to exploit your health for profit.

The food industry is counting on your ignorance and your convenience addiction. They're betting you won't read labels, won't ask questions, won't connect the dots between what you eat and how you feel. Prove them wrong.
