iEat Green Shares Interview with Stacy Malkan!

Hi All,

My guest this week was Stacy Malkan, the co-founder and co-director of U.S. Right to Know, which is a nonprofit investigative research group focused on the food industry. We had a great conversation about her current work shedding light on hidden chemicals in our food, as well as her past work in the cosmetic and beauty product industry. Her award-winning book, Not Just a Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry (New Society, 2007), raised the awareness of the dangers in cosmetics and beauty products, and was responsible for cosmetics companies removing hazardous chemicals from nail polish, baby products, make-up and hair products.

Stacy’s work with the U.S Right to Know keeps her pulse on the issues we all need to pay attention to, such as; GMO labeling, gene editing, false PR spins on the need for chemicals in agriculture, Cokes claim that sugar does not contribute to obesity, the Monsanto lawsuits, and corporate money in research.

If you want to meet Stacy in person, you can come listen to her talk on, Spinning Food: How pesticide industry PR tactics shape the story of the food we eat, on Monday Jan 27, from 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm at The Real Truth About Health Conference at the Hilton in Melville
