Michael Pollan spoke with Dr. Sanjay Gupta on CNN recently about the recent recall of 550 billion eggs nationwide due to salmonella concerns.

Pollan thinks a single authority over food safety issues like the one president Obama recommended last year would help curtail these issues.

“Our food industry has fought to keep power divided and power divided is never strong,” Pollan said.

Dr. Sanjay Gupta recently touched on the new study that suggested eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day isn’t as beneficial in preventing cancer as once thought.

The study, published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, followed thousands of Europeans in 10 different countries over nine years and only found a weak association between cancer and produce intake.

Specifically, the study found those who got an extra 2 servings of fruits and vegetables a day reduced their cancer risk by 4%, versus the 20% or 30% found in previous studies that launched the famous “Five a Day” campaign.

It’s thought this exaggeration was found because previous studies used healthier populations who were less likely to get cancer and more likely to demonstrate other health conscious practices to begin with.

Does that mean you should toss your daily apple to the birds?

Not exactly, unless you enjoy feeding them.

“Experts do agree still, of course, that you should eat your carrots, your tomatoes, your spinach, et cetera, it’s good for your heart,” Dr. Gupta said on a recent segment on CNN. “It’s good for your waistline as well. And, by the way, keeping the fat off is also a good thing because the estrogen in fat can fuel some cancers.”

Fruits and vegetables contain fiber, which keep you fuller, causing you to eat less, which is a proven way to keep fat off.
