Here is what the page “Food Industry Greed Bigger Problem Than Obesity, Warns Prof Kent Buse” contains. Professor Kent Buse argues that the real culprit behind rising cancer rates in under-50s is not obesity itself, but the profit-driven food system that causes it. In a letter responding to a Guardian editorial, Buse points to The Lancet's series on ultra-processed foods, which shows these products are displacing traditional diets globally and driving chronic disease. The series also documented over 200 interconnected lobby groups used by the industry to block regulation.
Buse's warning comes as ultra-processed foods now make up a significant portion of diets in many countries, with links to obesity, cancer, and other health issues. Other letter writers, including Hugo Harper, Dr Pawan Randev, and Patricia Hampton, also weigh in on the need to address food industry influence. The full version stays on the original page, which this listing opens directly.
