(NewsNation) — Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has released the anticipated “Make America Healthy Again” report that calls for the country to change its health care approaches.
The report calls for increased scrutiny into the childhood vaccine schedule, a review of the pesticides sprayed on American crops and a description of the nation’s children as “overmedicated” and “undernourished.” It also calls for the regulation of ultraprocessed foods.
Vani Hari, also known as “The Food Babe” on social media, is a strong supporter of the MAHA movement. She told NewsNation’s “Elizabeth Vargas Reports” on Thursday that the report is the first step in showing how America can improve its health.
“We’ve been mass poisoned as Americans,” Hari said.
Hari said the report shows that life expectancy will shorten for Americans if there is no regulation of chemicals put in food. Glyphosate, a chemical widely used by farmers, has been widely discussed and will likely be reviewed. Hari said the chemical needs to be regulated and all toxins need to be reduced.
“We are using these chemicals in an abundance,” Hari said. “And we need to start looking at how we can regain health. The fact that childhood cancer has increased by 40% since 1975 is a travesty.”
