We seek Health nominees who will help restore American vitality, longevity, security, and prosperity by making America healthy once again. We want public servants who will honor individual choice, understand root causes, support preventive and holistic care, and align with the rest of the Vision for Health below. New submissions are currently paused.
The United States of America spends more on healthcare than any other country and yet has the sickest population on Planet Earth. 77% of our young people would not qualify to serve in the military; we have the highest maternal mortality rate of any developed nation; and our life expectancy sits right above Algeria’s.
President Trump will reverse the chronic disease epidemic that has swept the USA by ending corporate capture of HHS, prohibiting conflicts of interest during safety testing, publishing all trial data, removing liability shields, supporting preventative and holistic care, offering Americans health savings accounts to protect individual choice, and banning pharmaceutical advertising to US consumers. His Administration will convene a whole-of-government taskforce with the emergency mission of ending America’s chronic disease epidemic, reducing crippling health costs, and restoring our life expectancy to global norms.
Along with Robert F Kennedy Jr, President Trump will direct federal research to determine the drivers of this chronic health crisis and use the full powers of his office to remedy every root cause. Together, they will restore American vitality, longevity, security, and prosperity by making America healthy once again.
Great! Please use the form on this page: Nominees for the People | Kennedy24 and be sure to fill it out as completely as possible! The more info provided, the more it will be considered.
Vibrant health is a birthright of everyone on planet Earth
Personally I have stopped or reduced dramatically eating processed foods as I have noticed my body does not enjoy them. Instead I look for first generation food products meaning from the grower or from the grower retailer I buy my beef locally fruits and vegetables locally and whenever possible dairy products locally.
As a volunteer in a local food bank I see the horrendous amount of waste of fresh foods and the incredible proliferation of cheap non-nutritious mostly carbohydrate fake food that is giving out at food banks.
Very little of this food has any nutritional value and yet it is what the corporations make available for food banks.
In my vision of America there would be incentives for people to have a victory garden.
Incentives for people to raise and retail dairy products and fresh meats.
In many ways I feel we could all learn a great deal from the Amish Quakers or Mennonites.
I would love to see America have a booming handmade craft industry as a by product of their gardens and raised animals.
I would love to see American flax production increase so that American linen can become important.
I would love to see people learn about electro- culture gardening.
What’s possible where there could be free classes for everyone to learn all of these wonderful endeavors.
What a great future ahead of us!
There is a need to develop blood markers of health to monitor the expected progress in the reduction of chronic disease. Having advanced certification in medical laboratory technology, I was always perplexed why DHEA-S (biologically inactive) was routinely tested in clinical laboratories but not DHEA or 7-keto-DHEA which are the active forms of this “YOUTH HORMONE”. Indeed accumulating evidence strongly shows that it is a drop in the DHEA/cortisol ratio that is associated with the initiation and progression of age-associated chronic disease (not DHEA-S/cortisol). Similarly, while clinical laboratories test for free AFP in blood (again which is the inactive form), the active form of AFP is bound to the 67 kD AFP binding protein that I characterized for my Ph.D. thesis. With a little research, and the generation of monoclonal antibodies, it would not be difficult to develop a test for active AFP. I have proposed active AFP causes chronic diseases including cancer since 1994. Another marker would be vitamin D3 levels in blood which in Canada is readily available via naturopaths but not so much in allopathic medicine. These four tests along with blood pressure and BMI/waist circumference should enable a proper assessment of health that could be used to monitor impact of policies and programs.
I’m new to this platform, so apologies if I am not in the correct area. I would like to know if anyone else is concerned with the excessive use of plastic used in produce packaging.
It’s so crazy to use plastic when HEMP.PLASTIC is non toxic and biodegradable! What about using nets on lettuce, for instance, instead of plastic wrap? Or paper bags for baked items to store in containers at home. Why not refills instead of another whole new package? So many possibilities!
I love the idea of incentives for community gardens and getting produce much more locally and seasonally produced and available. Why do I live in North West Florida, but my summer tomato options are from Canada? Why do all the oranges available in the Orange capitol come from California and Mexico?? This part of our food system is very broken and this was not how it was as a kid. When I was growing up in this state, there were fruit stands on so many street corners and it was all locally grown food. Now the few produce stands sell produce shipped in from states away and the grocery stores are even worse.
Right in! It cheaper overall and more delicious to enjoy the fruits of ones labor or area. It’s a simple partial solution and many good things can come from it! Thank you for commenting!
There’s a food shelf called The Open Door in Eagan Minnesota that helps prevent food waste and provides healthy food to those in need by partnering with Local Food Co Ops like Valley Natural Foods in Burnsville Minnesota.
“The Open Door rescues roughly 25,000 pounds of food every week from partner grocery stores. In the first six months of 2023, 626,346 pounds of food was rescued. The food that Open Door volunteers rescue every weekday morning is what grocery stores would otherwise throw away to make room for their new inventory or food that’s maybe not selling as well. It’s fresh produce. It’s meat. It’s dairy, bread, and shelf-stable items like canned goods and pasta. It’s food that hasn’t passed its actual expiration date and can still be eaten, enjoyed even”
