The
World Health Organization (WHO) is the United Nation’s “public health” arm and
has 194 member states. While its official mission is “the attainment by all
people of the highest possible level of health“, it is also clear that it works
according to a specific agenda, one that laid out by the world elite and the
organizations that are part of it. In the article entitled ‘Contagion’ or How
Disaster Movies “Educate” the Masses, we’ve seen how the WHO was involved in
the promotion of mass vaccination campaigns following (bogus) disease scares,
of civilian camps, of the bar-coding of individuals and so forth.
More
proof of the WHO’s “elite bias” has been recently uncovered by a study: The
organization has been taking hundreds of thousands of dollars from the world’s
biggest pushers of unhealthy foods such as Coca-Cola, Nestlé and Unilever. It
is relying on these companies for advice on how to fight obesity..é which is
the equivalent of asking a drug dealer for advice on how stay off drugs and NOT
buy his product.
Coca-Cola,
Nestlé and Unilever are not simply “food companies, they are gigantic
conglomerates that produce and distribute an enormous proportion of processed
foods across the world. In the article entitled Irrational Consumerism (or The
Few Companies Who Feed the World), I described how only a few
mega-conglomerates own most of the world’s brands of processed foods. To
refresh your memory here are some of the brands owned by Nestlé:

The
brands owned by Coca-Cola are too numerous to list but you might already know
that the company has a stronghold on sugary drinks across the world, whether we
look at soft-drinks, juices or energy drinks.
The
owners of these companies are not only businessmen but participants in elite
forums such as the Council on Foreign Relations and the Bilderberg group. They
have a say in the forming of social and economic policies across the world.
With
funding coming directly from these conglomerates, we have another proof that
the WHO is not truly attempting to make the world a healthier place. It is
rather shaping the world’s health according to the interests and the Agenda of
the world elite. Do you really need an international organization to help you
stay healthy? Simply staying of the toxic foods sold by those who fund the WHO
is an incredibly good start.
Here’s
an article on the WHO receiving money from major junk-food distributors.
World
Health Organisation ‘taking cash handouts from Coca-Cola to plug black holes in
budget’
■The Pan American office has accepted
$50,000 from Coca-Cola, $150,000 from Nestle and $150,000 from Unilever
■It has also been relying on the food
and beverage industry for advice on how to fight obesity
The
World Health Organisation has taken thousands of pounds from food companies
such as Coca-Cola and Nestle.
A
regional WHO office has also taken donations from Ben & Jerry’s ice cream
and Unilever, according to a study.
The
Pan American office – known as PAHO – has received £35,000 in donations from
Coca-Cola, £100,000 from Nestle and a
similar amount from Unilever.
The
WHO is the public health arm of the UN and fights chronic ailments such as
diabetes and heart disease, caused primarily by unhealthy diets.
The
Pan American Health Organisation has also been relying on the food and beverage
industry for advice on how to fight obesity.
Accepting
industry funding goes against WHO’s worldwide policies.
The
Pan American office – known as PAHO, based in Washington – has so far accepted
$50,000 from Coca-Cola, the world’s largest beverage company, $150,000 from
Nestle, the world’s largest food company, and $150,000 from Unilever, whose
brands include Ben & Jerry’s ice cream and Popsicles.
The
cash donations were described by Irene Klinger, a senior adviser for
partnerships in PAHO, as ‘a new way of doing business.’ However, she insisted
WHO is careful to maintain control of its policy decisions.
WHO
is increasingly relying on ‘partnerships’ with the industry, instead of
maintaining neutrality like it always has done, to fill holes in its budget.
However, it still refuses to partner with the tobacco industry.
Since
2010 WHO has cut its own funding for chronic disease programs by 20 per cent.
These diseases cause 63 per cent of premature deaths worldwide, but the WHO
department in charge of fighting them receives just six percent of the UN’s
budget.
Boyd
Swinburn, an Australian professor and longtime member of WHO’s nutrition
advisory committees, said: ‘WHO is getting hijacked. They’re cash-strapped, and
they’re bringing the private sector in. That’s very dangerous.’
However,
Jorge Casimiro, Coca-Cola’s director of international government relations and
public affairs, said: ‘It’s about the convergence of the interests. What we’re
trying to say is we’re ready to take action. We’re companies who want to do
this. We’re ready to go.’
Meanwhile,
Coca-Cola has also placed a top official on the steering board for WHO’s Pan
American Forum for Action on Non-Communicable Diseases, a group that helps
determine how WHO fights obesity in Mexico.
WHO’s
Geneva headquarters and five other regional offices have been stopped from
accepting money from the food and soda industries, among others.
Spokesman
Gregory Härtl said: ‘If such conflicts of interest were perceived to exist, or
actually existed, this would jeopardize WHO’s ability to set globally
recognized and respected standards and guidelines.’
It
has also emerged that at least two of specially appointed nutrition advisers
working on behalf of WHO had direct financial ties to the food industry.
Murray
Skeaff, a New Zealand professor, received research money from Unilever, the
conglomerate with $60 billion sales last year.
Esté
Vorster, a South African professor, advised a sugar association and took travel
and ‘after hours’ money to judge a contest for Nestle. Vorster said she does
not participate in discussing the sugar guideline.
