Nonprofit organizations exposed: American Dietetic Association and others in bed with Monsanto


(NaturalNews) There is a reason why the American Dietetic Association (ADA), which was recently renamed the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics
(AND), often makes ridiculous nutrition recommendations such as to eat
lots of grains as part of a "healthy" diet, or to avoid eating fats,
particularly saturated fats, which it falsely suggests are harmful to
health. It turns out that this nonprofit organization and many others
routinely accept cash contributions and sponsorships from major industry
players like Monsanto, Procter & Gamble, and the National Dairy Council, which steer the types of information they disseminate publicly.

According to information compiled by the Center for Science in the Public Interest
(CSPI), a food safety and nutrition advocacy group, the ADA, for years,
has been accepting cash donations from the pharmaceutical,
biotechnology, and processed food industries in exchange for allowing
these industries to basically publish its materials, and craft its
nutrition advice. Back in 1996, for instance, ADA accepted large cash
contributions from Kellogg's, Kraft Foods, Nestle USA, Coca-Cola,
General Mills, Monsanto, Nabisco, Procter & Gamble, and others, all
of which were given access to the development of a number of official
ADA "fact sheets."

ADA 'fact sheets' often nothing more than industry propaganda

These
fact sheets, of course, were distributed to the public as trusted
nutrition guides, and contained all sorts of flawed information about
"healthy eating" such as recommendations to eat more canola, corn, and
soybean oils, and to avoid saturated fats like coconut oil and butter.
These same ADA fact
sheets have been instrumental over the years in making people view
"fats" in general as unhealthy, which has led to much confusion about
the importance of eating healthy fats, as well as a massive upswing in
chronic disease rates all across the board.

In 1999, the ADA
actually partnered with the ConAgra Foundation, which pushes all sorts
of unhealthy, processed foods on the public that contain
genetically-modified organisms (GMOs), harmful additives like monosodium
glutamate (MSG), refined sugars and flours, and other toxins, to put
out a pamphlet entitled, "Home Food Safety: It's in Your Hands." This
guide specifically directs people away from drinking whole, raw milk,
for instance, because of its supposed "dangers," and instead encourages
people to basically eat all their foods heavily cooked. (http://www.cmu.edu)

ADA partnership with drug industry responsible for bias against dietary supplements

That
same year, it was announced that ADA had partnered with the
pharmaceutical industry and Monsanto to "educate" the public on the
"appropriate" use of dietary supplements. As can be expected, this
unbelievable conflict of interest led ADA to generally discourage the
use of supplements by ordinary folks. ADA's position today suggests that
most people do not need dietary supplements, and that those who do take
them without any obvious health problems are attempting to shortcut their way to nutrition by not having to eat fruits and vegetables.

As we have pointed out numerous times before here at Natural News,
dietary supplements can be highly beneficial for many seemingly-healthy
people because the modern food supply, which is largely grown
industrially in nutrient-deficient soils, lacks basic nutritional
elements. On top of this, the government's recommended daily allowances
(RDA) for various vitamins and minerals are far too low to maintain
optimal health anyway -- and ADA, of course, aligns itself with this
flawed RDA paradigm.
