As #obesity rises, #BigFood & #dietitians push ‘#AntiDiet’ advice

…the “anti-diet” movement, a #SocialMedia juggernaut that began as an effort to combat #WeightStigma & an unhealthy obsession w/thinness…[has now been co-opted by]…global food marketers…seeking to cash in on the trend.

One company in particular, #GeneralMills, maker of CocoaPuffs & LuckyCharms cereals, has launched a multi-pronged campaign that capitalizes on the teachings of the #AntiDiet movement…. General Mills has toured the country touting anti-diet research it claims proves the harms of “food shaming” [it does harm, but doesn’t necessitate unhealthy food habits].

#GeneralMills has showered giveaways on registered #dietitians who promote its cereals w/the hashtag DerailTheShame, & #sponsored #influencers who promote its sugary snacks. The co also enlisted #lobbyists & pushed back against fed policies that would add #health info to #FoodLabels.

…Online dietitians—many of them backed by food makers—also are building lucrative followings by co-opting #AntiDiet msgs. Anti-diet hashtags…have proliferated on #SocialMedia.
