DGA 2020 Conflicts of Interest with 95% of "Experts"
Incredible COI summary of "expert" members of the DGA for 2020. Hard to believe that this is the document updated every 5 years that guides physicians, dieticians, and other health care providers in dispensing advice to the U.S. population, and upon which the food companies base their products. These shiny, happy people are making great income while being paid by a variety of invested corporations to provide health guidelines their way:

The word "joke" doesn't begin to describe these dynamic relationships. If they truly believe in what they're doing and that they aren't unethically deluding the population, there's a different word that is more apt in this case, "sociopathy."
How many of us know people getting this advice who are confused, frustrated, and metabolically unhealthy? How much has this influenced the cost of health care? Bottom line is that we are on our own, and it's only fair to share this with others, so they truly understand.
