The former Biggest Loser coach has joined the Physician’s Committee for Responsible Medicine in an attempt to convince Congress to reduce funds that help subsidize less healthy food and the producers of those products.

Mark Bittman is using his New York Times column to explore the possibility of taxing unhealthy food.

Bittman feels this is a way to get Americans to change their eating habits and hold companies accountable for producing products that contain harmful ingredients.

“Simply put: taxes would reduce consumption of unhealthful foods and generate billions of dollars annually,” Bittman writes in an article titled, “Bad Food? Tax It, and Subsidize Vegetables.”

“That money could be used to subsidize the purchase of staple foods like seasonal greens, vegetables, whole grains, dried legumes and fruit.”

Self magazine has named the three least nutrient dense veggies. None of the vegetables are completely without nutritional value, but Self recommends swapping some of the lower nutrient dense veggies like celery and iceberg lettuce for plants that pack more goodness like carrots and romaine lettuce.
