This is a YouTube video titled "the diet companies don't want you to lose weight" featuring Jim Katsoulis, created on November 14, 2025. In this excerpt, Jim Katsoulis discusses the conflict of interest in diet companies being owned by food companies, suggesting that these companies promote dieting because it does not work and keeps consumers buying their products.

The diet companies do not want you to lose weight because the diet companies are owned by the food companies. Weight Watchers was owned by Heinz. Jenny Craig was owned by Nestle Atkins. Food Products is owned by the same company that owns Carvel ice cream and Cinnabon. And Slim Fast is owned by the same company owns Ben and Jerry's ice cream. These companies do not want you to eat less of their products, which is why they promote dieting, because dieting does not work.
