ban GMO's and unsafe additives to food and abandon the outdated food pyramid that is making this country obese.

Thanks to a very flawed study by Ancel Keys, our country has been conned about the dangers of cholesterol and have steered away from eating healthy whole foods and duped into eating whole grains. This flawed study also launched a food industry of overly processed foods that are making us obese and hurting our economy due to outrageous healthcare costs. It's time we start curing our ailments with nutrition and not trying to throw a pill at every problem. We can start by abandoning the food pyramid and ban or at least label GMO's. We should also ban a majority of the additives that we put in our foods. For example, a number of food colorings are banned in Europe and Canada after studies suggest they lead to behavior problems in children, but they are totally legal for consumption here.
