In Michael Pollan’s article “Escape from the Western Diet” the author reminds us of the many different studies that tell us that what is considered healthy for us, changes like the shifting wind. Pollan goes on to say that there are three groups that gain from the confusion what is a healthy diet, the food industry, nutritional science, and journalism. Pollan claims the food industry is to blame because they use different nutritional theories to release new products, and that the nutritional science industry is to blame because they use theories to develop new prescriptions and treatment methods. A journalist writes the articles pertaining to all the different ways that are claimed healthy eating. Pollan says “eat foods that are less processed”.
