Ever wondered how the food on your plate is influenced by science and law? In this episode of 'Lobes and Robes', Dr. Davidson and Dr. Carle sit down with Professor of Law Dr. Lewis Grossman to explore the intricate connections between neuroscience research, the Western diet, and obesity. Dr. Grossman, an expert in food and drug law, dives into potential policy measures like labeling, limiting, and nudging to reduce the consumption of harmful foods.
The conversation sheds light on the challenges of turning scientific research into effective public policies and laws. They also discuss the FDA's role, industry influences, and the conflicts of interest that can arise. For anyone interested in how our food choices are shaped by neuroscience and legal frameworks, this episode offers a fascinating look behind the scenes.
