With Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confirmed as the new head of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the focus shifts to his plans for public health reform. Kennedy aims to address key issues like food policy, healthcare access, pharmaceutical accountability, and medical freedoms through initiatives like the newly established 'Make America Healthy Again' Commission.
With the Thursday confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as head of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the spotlight is on the new secretary’s plans to 'Make America Healthy Again.' 'The future of public health is about to change forever,' Kennedy’s team wrote in an email announcing his confirmation. 'This is a turning point for our nation. With RFK Jr. at the helm, the battle for accountability and real health reform is just getting started.
Here are some of the key issues and policies the commission plans to focus on, along with doctors’ insights. Reforming food policy Many doctors — including Dr. Brett Osborn, a Florida neurosurgeon and longevity expert — believe that food is the 'root cause of chronic disease.' 'Kennedy understands that fixing the food system is a priority,' he told Fox News Digital.
Kennedy's emphasis on clean food aligns with a 'growing public concern' about the impact of processed foods and environmental toxins on health, Prato noted. 'By promoting cleaner food standards and a shift toward sustainable, whole food-based dietary guidelines, we aim to address chronic diseases at their roots.
Emily Austin, TV personality and clean beauty brand owner in New York City, agreed that people are getting 'more and more dependent on drugs and procedures that profit organizations and corporations.' Osborn reiterated that the pharmaceutical industry generates profit by managing disease, not preventing it.
