New FDA rules aim to redefine what's considered 'healthy'

Season 2024 Episode 362 | 5m 59s

The Food and Drug Administration has issued new rules for food labels for the first time in three decades, an update the agency says will help empower consumers to make healthier choices in the grocery store. Lindsey Smith Taillie, a nutrition epidemiologist at the University of North Carolina’s Gillings School of Global Public Health, joins William Brangham to discuss the changes.
