Inside the FDA with a Former FDA Director, Richard Williams

<p>Richard A. Williams, former&nbsp;Director for Social Science with the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition at the FDA,&nbsp;takes us behind the scenes on what the&nbsp;FDA actually does: how regulations are put into place, and why they sometimes aren’t when they should be; how warning labels and bans on things like trans fats are determined, and by whom; food safety versus nutrition, and Genetically Modified versus Genetically Engineered. Is irradiation (similar to microwaves) a safe way to kill pathogens in food?&nbsp;Why is&nbsp;obesity still on the rise? And we take a look at the future of food, from precision fermentation, vertical farms, and 3D-printed foods, to personalized diets and so much more.</p><p><strong>Guest Links:</strong></p><p>Website:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.richardawilliams.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.richardawilliams.com</a></p><p><br></p><p>For 25% off The Fitness App by Jillian Michaels, go to&nbsp;<u>www.thefitnessapp.com/podcastdeal</u></p><p>Follow us on Instagram @JillianMichaels and @MartiniCindy</p><p>Email your questions to&nbsp;JillianPodcast@gmail.com</p><p><em>You can find new episodes of Keeping It Real: Conversations with Jillian Michaels, completely ad free, on Wondery+&nbsp;</em>https://wondery.app.link/jillian</p><p><br></p><p>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.</p>
