Advancing Health Equity Through Food System Change

We are a nonprofit advancing food equity and nutrition security by working at the intersection of public health, education and policy. We start with dairy because of its outsized impact on health and access, and we equip individuals, universities, and governments with the tools to make evidence-based, systemic change for good.

What happened after I made the switch was nothing short of extraordinary. It was kind of magical. I wasn’t expecting it, but my performance improved drastically, and I knew there was no turning back.

  • The Dietary Guidelines for Americans shape how a nation eats, but the science, politics, and industry forces behind them are rarely discussed. In the newest episode of the Switch4Good podcast, renowned nutrition scientist Dr. Christopher Gardner, Professor of Medicine at Stanford University and lead researcher of the Netflix Twin Experiment, pulls back the curtain on the latest update: how it was crafted, what’s shifted, and where it diverges from the evidence. Dr. Gardner helps us separate fact from manipulation and noise, and offers practical, realistic takeaways for building a balanced, sustainable way of eating.

  • Our team attended the PA Farm Show @pafarmshow last week to show you what dairy truly looks like from the inside. This cow was forced to give birth on display in front of hundreds of people. She was bleeding, vulnerable, and trying to clean and bond with her newborn while show-goers gawked at her and employees told onlookers how she was feeling and what she was thinking and experiencing, in their opinion.

What happens next depends on the calf’s sex:
🐮 If the calf is female, she will be raised to replace her mother—impregnated over and over so her milk can be sold to humans for profit, until her body gives out and she is sent to sl@ughter.
🐮 If the calf is male, he is considered “waste”. He’ll be sent to be k*lled for veal, or sl@ughtered because he can’t produce milk.

This calf was female 👇

This mother doesn’t know that yet. She’s just doing what mothers do—licking her baby, bonding, protecting. Animal agriculture turns birth into a spectacle and motherhood into a resource.

  • Microplastics are everywhere. They’re in our oceans, our soil, and even inside the human body. For years, the narrative has been bleak. This is unavoidable. But what if that isn’t the whole story? In the latest episode of the Switch4Good podcast, we sit down with Max Pennington, a chemical engineer, entrepreneur, and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree who decided to take on one of the most overlooked sources of microplastic pollution: our laundry. What started as an experiment in a fraternity basement grew into a patented filtration technology that captures more than 90% of microplastics from washing machine wastewater.

Max shares how curiosity turned into conviction and what it really takes to transform an environmental problem into a scalable solution. We also talk about the hidden ways microplastics enter our lives, what can actually be done to reduce exposure, and why there’s real reason to be optimistic about stopping pollution at the source.
