Dim turned it's back on a prominent Kennedy over the issue of better health for Americans.

“But now he’s in charge of America’s healthcare.”
That sentence drives me up the wall. Each American should be in charge of his own healthcare. As a free people we should make it clear we don’t need no stinkin’ healthcare czar.
Let's hope he does a good job for the American people and doesn't receive to much obstruction from the big pharma and big agriculture.
George Floyd got a statue and his family millions of dollars. What was your point again?
Cocaine Mitch voted against RFK Jr's Confirmation. Not surprised.
Shows you only read news and don’t actually get to know a fella. Ignorance is bliss I suppose. I don’t think opposing the flu vaccine gives you polio.
Just calm down fella.
I’m not going to claim that’s a bunch of bunk or spot on, but I do know for a fact multiple items in that post are misleading.
The most obvious one is the claim that the real depletion of soil minerals is because of agrochemical use. I would argue a much bigger factor is poor practices such as full/repeated tillage, among others. There’s a reason that graph has a huge inflection point and I’d argue it’s mostly because of changes to tillage, fertilization, rotation, and other practices around that time.
Another thing to watch closely is how restrictions on these products are implemented. ‘Family’ farms in the Midwest are thousands of acres because margins are so tight you can’t support a family by farming much below 1500 acres. With such small margins, banning chemicals will have a reverse effect of bankrupting small operators who cannot generate enough income if yields drop in the way one would expect without the chemicals.
Another aspect is some of this grain does not enter the human food supply, going instead to biofuels and ‘organic synthetics’. Will the same restrictions apply to those grains?
Sadly, the farming industry has slowly evolved into something that can’t easily absorb radical change without some serious adverse affects.
Well educated thought and I agree with you sir. Honestly the little guys always get bent over. I couldn’t imagine having to farm to support my family. I would love it but man those dudes work so hard for so little in today’s world.
I am kinda just spamming two guys on JFK JR stuff here.
I hope he commissions an independent review of the impact of cholesterol on health and the statin drugs used to "deal" with that.
Conventional wisdom and consensus is that LDL clogs your arteries and statins are a miracle drug.
Some doctors and more current studies say inflammation causes damage to the arteries and cholesterol repairs the damage. Over time the repairs form a blockage. Fix the inflammation and cholesterol never forms a blockage is not an issue.
If the latter is true then we need to know it, doctors need to be educated on it en mass and the consensus needs to change.

What are the causes of inflammation?
Also more nonsense that I hope he addresses and is a concern to me, is diet. What I fear is that there is a campaign to push current dietary guidelines on the public. These guidelines are part of the problem and we have to be careful on what the government declares as healthy.
Natural aka animal FATS ARE HEALTHY. (Butter, Tallow and Lard)
Olive, coconut and avocado oils are healthy.
Red meat does NOT cause cancer or heart disease.
Bacon does not clog your arteries.
Carbohydrate heavy diets leads to obesity, type 2 diabetes and other chronic diseases
Sugar heavy diets leads to the same.
Seed oils a re bad for you.
Diabetes and other chronic metabolic diseases in most persons can be reversed with a Keto or carnivore diet.
I hope Sec Kennedy is aware of this stuff and gets this promoted as medical cannon.
MAHA.

Supposedly bad diet and maybe in some people genetics.
Not an MD but I have had to take my own health into my hands since March 2023.
I was lucky enough to have an MD helping me when I was hospitalized by telling me to NOT I repeat NOT follow the recommendations of the dieticians. He basically told me to follow a keto diet without using those words. He gave me a whole list if things I could and could not eat. This required me to study the issue myself.
I came across this guy.

Dieticians were telling me I could eat 135g of carbs a day. This was absolute garbage advice.
I restricted myself to 20g, lost 40lbs, a1c went to 5.6, and all my bloodwork came back fine except Cholesterol was high.
Full disclosure: I was not taking my statin when that bloodwork was done.
I am now taking them because my current doctors are not versed in or willing to administer certain tests that would supposedly see if I have a problem with arterial inflammation. So I am back on the statins even though I have adverse affects. Tendonitis is one of them and I have had injuries occur doing minor activities. When I had my cath done in March 2023 there were no significant blockages. I did not need any stents and the one pic they showed me I was clean as a whistle. BUT since I have no idea what's gong on inside my arteries I will take the statins to be safe.

My cholesterol has been borderline for 25 years. For the last 5-10, I have endeavored to continually reduce my carb intake. Also had increasing problems with reflux.
I’ve had heart scans the last two years (I turn 50 in June) and there is zero indication of calcification or risk of growing blockage.
I have become more aware of inflammation in my body the last 10 years and it is steadily decreasing in amount and frequency as I keep working on my diet. I’m a long ways from being in great health but I’m far better than I was 6-10 years ago when I basically didn’t pay much attention to what I ate or drank. Reflux has also been almost eradicated by not eating excessive helpings or extra greasy fried foods. And oh yeah, even though those real life measurable improvements are there, the cholesterol levels haven’t changed.
The idea that any health professional could tell you that you can happily consume 120g+ of carbs per day is a big part of what’s wrong with people’s health.
There’s evidence linking the entire dietician field to interests of companies like Kellog, Nabisco, etc. and some of that link starts around the time of the civil war. Just crazy stuff. I would never trust a single word spoken by a dietician.
Caveat, some people genetically can eat way more carbs and some people genetically are in deep trouble if they eat very much at all. There is no one size fits all aside from true excess.
Yeah she really glosses over that whole right to repair problem. That’s a biggie.
One important thing you’ll notice is the farm ground in that video is flat as a table top. That tech struggles in hilly ground to be as effective and thus provide as much benefit.
And then there’s the cost of this stuff. Most of it individually costs more than the house the farmer lives in. Collectively by possibly an order of magnitude or more, depending on how much land he farms and how nice his house is.
Of course there are issues with new tech for farming. The point is there is innovation taking place to solve some of the issues that maybe causing some of our health problems from our food supply.
