British Nutrition Foundation

The British Nutrition Foundation is a British lobby group mainly funded by the food industry. It has been widely criticised for conflicts of interest, and for downplaying them. It presents itself to journalists, the public, and the government as an independent, impartial, disinterested, and scientifically rigorous; its industry funders also promote this image.

The BNF has opposed many public-health interventions that might harm food-industry profits, often using tobacco-industry techniques, such as creating unwarranted doubt and uncertainty around the scientific evidence.

In 2023, the BNF had an income of £1.5million, with an expenditure of £1.6million. £0.113million were spent on fundraising. Provided by Wikipedia
