Health and Human Services (HHS) Sec. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced on Feb. 18 that he will be launching investigations into the rise of chronic illness across America, but not in the way that you think.
For decades, we’ve been told that the rise in chronic illness is due to … nothing. We’ve never received a conclusive answer as to why so many people in America become ill and seemingly never heal from their ailments. Many people believe that so-called “cures” from Big Pharma are actually means of prolonging life and illness as a way to reap huge financial rewards for boards and shareholders, but these believers are also called “conspiracy theorists” by some. Even so, the actual cause of chronic illness remains unknown. But hopefully not for much longer.
To better understand the rise in chronic illness, RFK Jr. will start by investigating: ultra-processed food, electromagnetic radiation, childhood vaccine schedules, glyphosate and pesticides, artificial food additives, SSRIs and antidepressants, microplastics, and more, according to footage shared by Libs of TikTok:
“Make America Health Again” EO & Commission
On Feb. 13, President Donald Trump signed the “Establishing the President’s Make America Healthy Again Commission” executive order (EO) to “re-direct our national focus, in the public and private sectors, toward understanding and drastically lowering chronic disease rates and ending childhood chronic disease.”
“American life expectancy significantly lags behind other developed countries, with pre‑COVID-19 United States life expectancy averaging 78.8 years and comparable countries averaging 82.6 years. This equates to 1.25 billion fewer life years for the United States population. Six in 10 Americans have at least one chronic disease, and four in 10 have two or more chronic diseases. An estimated one in five United States adults lives with a mental illness,” the EO reads.
It appears that no area of health is off-limits, including explorations into the soaring rates of cancers, autoimmune diseases, autism, so-called “behavioral disorders,” as well as fatty liver disease, diabetes, and more. “This poses a dire threat to the American people and our way of life. Seventy-seven percent of young adults do not qualify for the military based in large part on their health scores. Ninety percent of the Nation’s $4.5 trillion in annual healthcare expenditures is for people with chronic and mental health conditions. In short, Americans of all ages are becoming sicker, beset by illnesses that our medical system is not addressing effectively. These trends harm us, our economy, and our security,” the EO continues.
What Will The New Policies Be?
According to the EO:
“It shall be the policy of the Federal Government to aggressively combat the critical health challenges facing our citizens, including the rising rates of mental health disorders, obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases. To do so, executive departments and agencies (agencies) that address health or healthcare must focus on reversing chronic disease. Under this policy:
(a) all federally funded health research should empower Americans through transparency and open-source data, and should avoid or eliminate conflicts of interest that skew outcomes and perpetuate distrust;
(b) the National Institutes of Health and other health-related research funded by the Federal Government should prioritize gold-standard research on the root causes of why Americans are getting sick;
(c) agencies shall work with farmers to ensure that United States food is the healthiest, most abundant, and most affordable in the world; and
(d) agencies shall ensure the availability of expanded treatment options and the flexibility for health insurance coverage to provide benefits that support beneficial lifestyle changes and disease prevention.”
Initial Focal Points
Childhood chronic disease is the first mountain the Commission is directed to climb, hopefully dismantling it on the way up. The plan is to investigate “any potential contributing causes, including the American diet, absorption of toxic material, medical treatments, lifestyle, environmental factors, Government policies, food production techniques, electromagnetic radiation, and corporate influence or cronyism[.]”
Transparency of all data and “unpublished analyses” related to the investigations “consistent with applicable law” suggests we’re going to get another front-row seat to the revelations of what’s been in our food, water, soil, and eventually into our bodies.
