674. Food Marketing and Children

Did you know that during the COVID lockdowns the food industry doubled down on their marketing to children? Knowing that children were mostly at home, watching TV, the food industry geared its advertising directly to them. It’s being called food porn! The study, published in the Journal of American Medical Association, revealed that over 90% of children between the ages of 2 and 19 live on junk food. On top of that, 70% of children in the United States are obese! 70 percent! Dr. Martin is angry this is happening! It literally makes him sick knowing how this will affect his grandchildren. By the year 2030, the World Health Organization is predicting a pandemic of diabetes – a pandemic of diabetes! Our health truly is in jeopardy!
