Ihr macht uns krank - Die fatalen Folgen deutscher Ernährungspolitik und die Macht der Lebensmittellobby | Ex-Foodwatch-Chef: Staatsversagen bei Zucker-Regulierung, Lebensmittel-Kontrolle, Tierschutz
MEx. Titel Ihr macht uns krank : die fatalen Folgen deutscher Ernährungspolitik und die Macht der Lebensmittellobby / Martin Rücker Person(en) Rücker, Martin (Verfasser) Organisation(en) Econ-Verlag (Verlag) Verlag Berlin : Econ Zeitliche Einordnung Erscheinungsdatum: [2022] Umfang/Format 335 Seiten ; 22 cm, 494 g ISBN/Einband/Preis 978-3-430-21070-6 Festeinband : EUR 22.00 (DE), EUR 22.70 (AT), CHF 24.90 (freier Preis) 3-430-21070-4 EAN 9783430210706 Sprache(n) Deutsch (ger) Schlagwörter Deutschland ; Ernährungspolitik ; Lebensmittelindustrie ; Lobbyismus ; Marktbeherrschung ; Gesunde Ernährung ; Irreführende Werbung ; Verbraucherschutz »Schockierende Fakten, anschaulich und fundiert beschrieben.« Rheinische Post »Rückers Werk legt den Fokus auf konkrete Lebensbereiche. Der frühere Foodwatch-Geschäftsführer hat in Krankenhäusern, Pflegeeinrichtungen und Schulen recherchiert, aber auch in Schlachthöfen und bei der Lebensmittelkontrolle. Vieles erscheint für den gesunden Menschenverstand absurd. So spielt Ernährung in der Medizinerausbildung keine Rolle, derweil es der Zucker- und Fast-Food-Industrie erlaubt ist, zahlreiche Professuren zu stiften. Auch die personellen Verflechtungen zwischen Verbänden, Politik und Industrie nimmt Rücker auseinander.« taz »In seinem Buch legt Martin Rücker Verflechtungen in Verbänden, dem Bundestag und Ministerien offen und zeigt die Auswirkungen von Ernährungsarmut und krankmachender Ernährung auf die Gesundheit der Gesamtgesellschaft.« The Pioneer Podcast "Der 8. Tag" ?Der Autor zeigt (?) ein hohes Maß an Sachkenntnis. (?) Martin Rücker ist ein faktenreiches und interessantes Buch gelungen. Er informiert den Leser darüber, wo Ernährungspolitik bisher gezögert beziehungsweise versagt hat und wo die Ursachen für die vielfältigen Probleme liegen.? Fachbuchjournal »Wir sind was wir essen. Wieviel das wiederum mit Politik zu tun hat, erfahren wir in Martin Rückers Buch "Ihr macht uns krank - Die fatalen Folgen deutscher Ernährungspolitik und die Macht der Lebensmittellobby". Rücker ist Journalist und war viele Jahre für die unabhängige Verbraucherschutzorganisation Foodwatch tätig. In dieser Funktion hat er nicht nur den Fleischskandal um die Wurstfabrik Wilke mit aufgeklärt, die drei Menschen das Leben kostete. Sondern auch Einblicke in das Tun von Behörden, Lebensmittelfirmen und Politikern bekommen, die er für sein Buch mit investigativen Recherchen ergänzt hat.« MDR Kultur "Spezial"
