RFKjr should reduce SNAP benefits.

It's the salt content that's over the top, and they are way too expensive for the nutrition you get.

Salt is not unhealthy. It's sodium chloride. Both sodium and chloride are essential electrolytes. Your body can't make them, so you need to get them in your diet.

People who are taking certain medications or have specific medical conditions such as liver or kidney disease may benefit from restricting sodium intake. But healthy folks don't have to worry about it. Excess sodium is excreted.

I guess you want people to not have the independence to do it themselves.

I'm like the disciple John. I wish all to prosper and be in good health.

Depends on your age, health, and condition of your kidneys. Excess salt is turned away by the kidneys to avoid kidney damage. That salt is then stored in tissues, bones, and joints where it can cause some mischief including contributing to high blood pressure. Americans consume six times more sodium than is needed by the body. Not good.

They, as in Mothers with children?

Don't put poor mothers on a pedestal. Many don't feed their kids breakfast thus the need for school breakfast programs.

Funny, just a few years back the right was losing their minds because Michelle Obama wanted to have healthy choices in school lunches. Now they are all about RFK making America healthy again. Go figure.

Because Michelle had crap in school lunches that no one would eat and it got thrown away.

But now Americans will eat their green vegetables because RFK says so?

No, but RFK isn't going to put a boot on captive children and force them to eat anything. In fact, he's not going to force anyone to eat anything. He's not going to threaten anyone that they have to have a dangerous vaccine either. But, if RFK says "vegetables are good for you", democrats will shriek that he's forcing everyone to eat their peas and carrot. Because democrats lie - about everything.

Americans don't give a shit about their health.
