Politics & Prose at Busboys and Poets, 14th & V, present Marion Nestle to discuss her new book Soda Politics: Taking on Big Soda (and Winning).
One of the country’s leading experts on health and food policy, Dr. Nestle, currently NYU’s Paulette Goddard professor, has been instrumental in establishing nutrition guidelines with the American Cancer Society, the DHS, and the FDA Food Advisory Committee and Science Board. In her ninth book, Nestle confronts the soda industry. With products that cost nearly nothing to make and companies investing huge amounts on marketing, Nestle helps consumers fight back by publicizing soda’s contribution to obesity, diabetes, dental problems, and more.
