STORY AT-A-GLANCE

For decades, our mission has been to help you take control of your health. The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) has launched a comprehensive campaign to put an end to Mercola.com

CSPI president Dr. Peter Lurie is a former FDA associate commissioner and avid supporter of Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease

Lurie falsely asserts that I make COVID-19 claims for nutritional supplements sold in my online store. A complete review was made of all products in the Mercola Market and none of the CSPI accusations exists

CSPI is bankrolled by billionaires and their corporate entities, such as the Rockefeller Foundation, the Rockefeller Family Fund and Bloomberg Philanthropies. It has also partnered with Bill Gates’ agrichemical PR group, the Cornell Alliance for Science. Greg Jaffe, who heads up CSPI’s Biotechnology Project, is also the associate director of legal affairs at Alliance for Science

CSPI also takes significant funds from the American Heart Association, which received heavy financial backing by the makers of Crisco, the top-selling trans fat product ever sold. The AHA also takes money from pharmaceutical companies manufacturing statin drugs

In the 1980s, CSPI conducted a highly successful campaign promoting trans fat, resulting in an epidemic of heart disease. It later white-washed its history, omitting its promotion of trans fat from the organization’s historical timeline

The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) has long proclaimed it does not accept corporate money, yet it’s bankrolled by billionaires and their corporate entities, such as the Rockefeller Foundation, the Rockefeller Family Fund and Bloomberg Philanthropies, as well as the American Heart Association, which in turn has received financial backing by the makers of Crisco

CSPI has a long history protecting and promoting foods known for their potentially adverse health impacts, including artificial sweeteners, trans fats, soy, genetically engineered (GE) foods and fake meats

To this day, CSPI promotes diet soda as a safer alternative to regular soda, claiming it “does not promote diabetes, weight gain or heart disease in the way that full-calorie sodas do”

CSPI was instrumental in driving the anti-GMO labeling campaign forward, which ultimately resulted in the United States being the only country in the world that does not have clear GMO labeling

Up until 1993, CSPI promoted trans fats over saturated fats, and in 1995 launched a campaign urging people to switch from whole and 2% milk to skim milk in order to reduce their saturated fat intake. Research, however, shows full-fat dairy actually lowers your risk of death from diabetes and cardiovascular causes such as stroke
