In a Republican leadership, how did a pro-abortion Democrat win the nomination for HHS minister? Americans are very ill, and they want something done, regardless of who their hero might be, merely put. This year, I co-author my new publication, Gina Bontempo, which explains how America came to this place and provides a plan for recovering from illness.
This November, past president Donald Trump was elected again with the promise to restore America’s “greatness” and restore it’s health. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an economic lawyer, put an end to his own separate White House campaign in August to form a nonpartisan alliance that would make health Trump’s personal campaign slogan. If all of those economic figures are based on a country that is chronically fat, sick, and depressed, then the former president can increase the country’s GDP ( GDP ) at any rate he wants.
In his Phoenix support talk, Kennedy said,” If I’m given the chance to repair the chronic illness problems and reform our food manufacturing, I promise that the problem of chronic disorder may significantly decrease over the next two times.” ” We will create Americans good again”.
On Thursday, the Republican president-elect gave Kennedy that possibility.
” For too much, Americans have been crushed by the commercial food complex and pharmaceutical companies who have engaged in fraud, propaganda, and propaganda when it comes to Public Health”, Trump wrote on X in a blog announcing Kennedy’s nomination to lead HHS. ” The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important part of any Administration, and HHS may play a major role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, medical products, and foods chemicals that have contributed to the enormous Health Crisis in this Country”.
Kennedy’s election might have been times in the doing, but the action had been years in the pipeline.
Americans have much come to terms with their diet’s constant decline in health. As waistlines enlarge, healthcare costs continue to rise. Almost 260 million Americans will be overweight or obese by 2050, according to a new study released last week in The Lancet. Although lifespans, or the number of years without incurable ailment, are not where they should be, even if they were a decade ago.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC ), six out of ten Americans have at least one chronic illness, while four out of ten have two or more. As the country struggles with a previously unheard mental health problems and a corporate-imposed lifestyle crisis that keeps users glued to cheap food and television, Americans are now terrible.
How Americans developed the trait of being” Fat and Unhappy” and what can be done to stop this, is explained in our new book.
For years, those who’ve wanted to lose pounds and reclaim their health to often just wound up discouraged. American citizens obediently followed costly treatments that were approved by well-known medical experts who advocated corporate-backed treatments like the low-fat diet. The unsuccessful efforts resulted in the emergence of a new wave of online influencers who raised the flag of “body positivity,” which was once again promoted by the food business, as detailed in the book.
Michelle Obama, the former First Lady, launched her own effort to combat childhood obesity 15 years ago to address the problems. After the first nurse’s activism was seen as yet another celebrity-focused campaign to change behavior, the Obamas left with British children heavier than they did before. Corporations raking report profits from a state of sick children, however, were recruited into the initiative only to drop any real progress.
Vice President-elect J. D. Vance wrote about the public’s rejection of the Obama obesity campaign in his 2016 memoir Hillbilly Elegy:
Barack Obama strikes at the heart of our deepest insecurities. While many of us do n’t, he is a good father. If we’re lucky enough to have a job at all, he wears suits to his job while we don overalls. His wife tells us that we should n’t be feeding our children certain foods, and we hate her for it — , not because we think she’s wrong but because we know she’s right.
The Obama movement was condescending. The first lady danced with famous people on television as if their performances would alter anything and blamed the parents and children for the crises. The difference between the Obama initiative and Kennedy’s new effort to “make America healthy again” is how blame and responsibility are placed in relation to the twin epidemics of obesity and chronic disease.
At the end of the Obama administration, Americans remained dependent on cigarette-brand industrialized food. The American Academy of Pediatrics ( AAP ) recommended their most recent generation of weight-loss medications to children as young as 12 years later, and pharmaceutical giants were more than happy to do so.
The same institutions that stifled Covid and used forced vaccination campaigns to force Americans to get their lives back, as we have already mentioned in our book, are the ones who are now eager to discredit Kennedy’s campaign to responsibly regulate Big Food and Big Pharma. Pharmaceutical companies made almost$ 100 billion  , on the experimental coronavirus vaccines, while junk food sales jumped more than$ 10 billion over two years. Public health officials were aware that obesity was the primary factor in Covid-19’s severe outcomes, but they still promoted sedentary lifestyles.
The federal government has only the power to accomplish so much, despite Kennedy’s crusade under a bold new Trump administration that is unhampered by the food and pharmaceutical industries. Responsible regulation might make Kellogg’s Fruit Loops healthier, for example, but that does not mean healthy. If Americans do n’t do their part to educate themselves on the issues and commit to being physically fit, the Trump administration may wage war with Wall Street on K Street.
The public requires a manual to regain their health after decades of poor science-based nutrition advice. Fat and Unhappy: How” Body Positivity” Is Killing Us ( and How to Save Yourself ) offers readers exactly that.
