Joe Biden wants Americans to change their eating habits and is expected to decree at a food summit on Wednesday that it's time for the United States to end food insecurity while tackling the obesity problem in the country.
The Democratic president will speak at the conference called "Hunger, nutrition and health" organized at the White House, which will bring together government and association officials as well as academic experts seeking to promote a healthier America, to after a senior official.
According to the White House, the goal will be “to end hunger and limit diet-related disease in the United States by 2030”.
An “ambitious, but achievable” goal that will require presidential decrees, but also congressional approval, according to this senior official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
"The United States has still not eliminated hunger and is facing an urgent health crisis related to nutrition" and this more than 50 years after a similar summit organized by Richard Nixon, detailed the White House.
The country deplores in particular an increase in the cases of food-related diseases such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension and certain cancers.
"The consequences of food insecurity and diet-related diseases are serious and far-reaching, disproportionately affecting disadvantaged populations," the executive said in a statement.
“There is no magic bullet to overcome these complex problems,” added the White House while noting that many of these diseases were preventable.
The Biden administration is proposing that nutrition labels go on the front of food packages rather than the back. It's part of a strategy to end hunger and diet-related diseases in America in eight years – some 40 pages of ideas to try to make the nation healthier.
The White House unveiled the plan ahead of a conference on hunger, nutrition and health being held in Washington on Wednesday – the first of its kind since 1969, when a similar effort sparked programs like food stamps.
The strategy includes expanding nutrition assistance programs and launching more programs to cover medically tailored meals. But it's unclear how quickly most of the ideas could become reality, since many recommendations hinge on support from a divided Congress and changes to regulations.
Advocates say following through on the plan could take years – unlike the 1969 conference, when most of the new programs were implemented within two years.
These ideas would require legislation to pass Congress.
There are some things the administration can do on its own. In the coming weeks, the Agriculture and Defense departments will use pandemic relief funding to expand online shopping for food in more states and with more retailers under the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) and food stamp programs.
And, for the first time, a nutritionist will be hired to support the Bureau of Indian Affairs and Bureau of Indian Education to help create indigenous food hubs at schools and detention centers.
