Exposing the Truth about the Industrial Food System

What does it really take to eat healthy? Most people think they know. But look deeper—beneath the veil of marketing, corporate influence, and half-truths—and everything changes. Once you see it, there’s no turning back. But there is a way forward.

That’s what Reforming Food is about: pulling back the curtain, exposing the truth, and reclaiming real food.

The Rotten Truth About Our Food System

The modern food system isn’t built for health, sustainability, or transparency—it’s built for profit and control. A handful of corporations dictate what we eat, shaping everything from what’s on the shelf to what’s in our bodies. Their dominance erodes our health, devastates the environment, and locks small farmers out of the system.

Corporations control over 80% of the U.S. beef market.

0

Companies own over 60% of U.S. poultry production.

Chemical giants—Bayer, Corteva, and Syngenta—control over 60% of the global seed market.

The Consequences of Corporate Control

  • 1 in 2 Americans will develop a lifestyle-driven chronic disease, largely due to ultra-processed foods.

  • Over 70% of calories in the average American diet come from industrial, ultra-processed food.

  • Glyphosate (Roundup)—a probable carcinogen—is found in 93% of tested urine samples.

  • Small farms vanish daily—an average of 4,000 acres of farmland is lost every day to consolidation.

  • 50 million Americans live in food deserts, with little to no access to fresh, real food.

🚨 The system isn’t broken—it was designed this way. But we don’t have to accept it.
