RFKjr.'s "Make America Healthy Again" will fail miserably despite his best efforts. While addressing chemical food additives and other such things is useful he cannot address the main driver of ill health in America, that being overweight due to overeating. The reason being that Americans simply will not reduce the amount of food they stuff down their pie holes.

It is MORE than just overeating.

It is what the government and the bedfellows of Big Ag and Big Pharma have pushed on Americans as healthy.

He can and has addressed it. According to you, the proposed price cuts for Ozempic don't exist?

That shit works if you use it right. I was given it by my doctors, and I have lost about 20 pounds so far and I am on what is considered a low dose. My reason was not weight as much as my type II diabetes. The weight loss is secondary but my A1C has dropped by 2 whole points. My gastroenterologist said he recommends all diabetics take it.

I weigh less now than when I graduated high school when I was 17.

I think that most people know what constitutes good food. They just don't care. It almost seems deliberate, ruining one's health for no good reason.

Well, there is an addiction issue.

Sugar is the most addictive substance on the planet. Big Ag and Big Pharma push ultra-refined substances (They call it food, I suppose) that are nothing more than purified sugar in the form of ultra-bioavailable carbohydrates.

Because of this addiction, people's blood sugar remains so elevated that insulin never leaves their bloodstream, and they add fat cell after fat cell, year after year.

I call it gluttony.
 
Instead of trannie hour in school. Why not a class called a 'healthy diet hour'?
It's worth a shot in my opinion.
I favor private educational counselling for overweight kids.

Yes, overeating is a national epidemic. People eat like pigs and consume way too much sugar and then wonder why they develop heart issues and type 2 diabetes later in life.
 
Damn OP, fat shaming us the day after Thanksgiving......FU, I still have leftovers to warm over. ;)

Just had a cold turkey breast sammich with mayo, salt, and pepper for my lunch. :banana:
May God have mercy on your soul.

I was invited out for Thanksgiving dinner so I have no leftovers. :(

Some? Yes, they do. But not all are easily blamed on that. I developed heart issues and type II diabetes from genetics. You do know that is a major contributor. I never ate like a pig or had too much sugar when I was in the Navy or I would be constantly missing the weight requirements and failing physical fitness tests. Never happened.

My father died at 75 from congestive heart failure. He had heart issues the last 5 years of his life. I had a 98% blockage in a major coronary artery despite running, carrying heavy loads, and coaching football. Never had a chest pain once. 5 stents placed in my heart in early 2020 and nearly 6 years later, I am good to go. Best guess as to cause? Genetics. No one in my father's family had ever died of anything other than a heart attack or massive stroke.

My maternal grandmother was a diabetic and so was my mother, and my brother. I was diagnosed two years after leaving the Navy. Through medication my A1C is now 5.6 which is well below diabetic standards and dropping. I weigh less now than I did at age 17 when I joined the Navy. Best guess as to cause? Genetics. lots of my aunts and uncles had it too. I have cousins who died from it.

What is the major cause of liver failure? Alcohol abuse, right? I had a transplant almost 3 years ago after being sick for three years. Guess what? Being a diabetic, I don't drink. I had what was called NASH or non-alcoholic liver disease. Without a transplant, I would slowly die. Guess who gets it? Mostly veterans who are NOT alcoholics nor drink excessively. Environmental causes, not alcohol is the culprit is as best as the VA can come up with. All of this has been discovered in the last few years.

There were exceptions to every rule, so please top making blanket statements.

As designed by the health industry. You can't run a profitable health industry if suddenly, all we have are a bunch of healthy people, now, can we? Add to that the business climate. Americans are worked harder and get only about a third the vacation that people in the EU get. That whole lifestyle is predicated in working long hours then running out for your 30 minute lunch break to run to the nearest fast food joint to cram your face with junk so you can get back to work on time. They could not sell half the crap in the sdupermarket if not for our fast, go, go, go lifestyle.

A large reason for overeating and obesity is that many of the "unhealthy" foods offered out there actually make you hungry and are poor at filling you up, while most "healthy" foods are naturally filling and satisfying. As to the sugar, it is in everything you buy. Even fruit juice is sweetened heavily to keep American's taste buds craving/needing that constant sugar fix.

So, while it isn't entirely wrong to blame people, keep in mind this is all by design by the entire government/healthcare industry. If not for the fact that Trump's administration is not part of the Big G complex, you wouldn't even be hearing anything out MAHA now. Have you heard one democrat talking about the need for dietary/food changes as an important issue? No, their top priorities are unrestricted ingress for muslims, and forced sex change operations for 8 year olds paid for by Uncle Sam.

Of course it will fail, which is a very good thing.

It will fail because it is perpetrated by backwards, uneducated dipshits, and it is good that it will fail, as their terminally stupid suggestions will harm people.

With all due respect, shut up.
