    The Trillion-Dollar Trap with Marion Nestle
    Jun 25 2026
    In this episode, longevity expert Dan Buettner sits down with renowned academic and food politics expert Dr. Marion Nestle to unpack how the American food system became dominated by ultra-processed foods and skyrocketing obesity rates. Nestle breaks down the historical and political shifts—from the Nixon-era agricultural policies of the 1970s to the corporate deregulation of the 1980s—that prioritized commodity crops like corn and soybeans over public health. They discuss why food corporations are structurally incentivized to maximize shareholder profit rather than consumer well-being, leaving everyday shoppers to fight a trillion-dollar industry entirely on their own.
