Episode 157: Dr. John Fagan’s Concerning New Findings About “Animal Free” Dairy

John Fagan

The Checkout presents this exclusive new interview with Dr. John Fagan, a leading researcher on food integrity and transparency.

Dr. John Fagan is a pioneer in applying biological research techniques to understanding what is in our food. He was an early adopter of GMO testing and has more recently applied mass spectrometry to understand the nutrient density of foods down to the molecular level. His latest research takes aim at the synthetic biology industry, also called “precision fermentation”, where biotech companies genetically modify microorganisms to produce analogues to common consumer products, such as milk, honey or vanilla. Dr. Fagan’s new research questions what is actually in these products, including dozens of compounds never before consumed by humans, how these products lack critical nutrients found in organic products, and what the FDA has overlooked in allowing them to be sold.
