Can MAHA achieve a two-fer: getting Americans to eat better quality food and improving the nation’s overall health? From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:
The “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) movement is gaining steam as a disruptive force in helping to rescue the nation’s deteriorating food supply chain and public health. It marks a clear inflection point from decades of dependency on ultra-processed foods and pharmaceutical giants profiting from Americans’ imploding health over the last half-century.
Last week, Goldman Sachs analysts highlighted a decisive shift in consumer behavior, with shoppers increasingly favoring cleaner, “better-for-you” food options. Even Bloomberg has begun to acknowledge MAHA’s rising impact.
At its core, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s movement aims to revive the nation’s health by restoring integrity to the food supply chain—prioritizing cleaner food with fewer chemicals and less industrial farming while reducing reliance on the pharmaceutical industry’s profit-driven approach to managing chronic disease. It turns out that cleaner food and regular exercise may be all it takes to help cure a nation of its sickness. Not Ozempic.
Bloomberg pointed out that food safety and production standards are again in focus following a new U.S.-UK trade deal. While the agreement reduces barriers to billions of dollars in U.S. exports—including beef—the UK continues to ban hormone-treated meat and chlorine-washed chicken, practices common in the U.S. but prohibited in the EU and UK due to stricter regulations.

Once, when checking out, the gentleman behind me exclaimed at the cost of my grocery bill (I buy primarily organic, free-range, hormone-free, grassfed, etc. and very little processed food). I explained to him that this was my health insurance and he understood.
As long as we refuse to understand the reason why food is “poisonous”, nothing will change, and everything we do will only be a plaster on an ever-growing wound.
