Americans already have a choice cook a healthy meal or get McDonalds. They will always choose junk food its addictive like crack. Lab designed to be that way.
Certainly Not News, you've already tanked your credibility. We don't need a "MAHA health report" that was undoubtedly plagiarized from Michelle Obama's program on encouraging healthy eating.
If these ghouls actually cared about this, they wouldn't be cutting SNAP, ending funding for local farmers to provide food to school children, cutting funding for medical research, and not rolling back environmental regulations. They are grifting assholes who push eugenics.
Yes US government has been less restrictive of known harmful chemicals in foods compared to European countries. Because US government protects corporations over people.
Maha is another stupid BS con. Corporations don’t care if they poison us, that’s why we need regulations. Companies never self regulate. Republicans want zero accountability and regulation. GTFO
I can't argue with a reassessment of processed foods and pesticides. The problem is, Big Food and Big Chemical have a lot of money they use to buy the loyalty of politicians, and they may have something to say about RFK criticizing their products.
Just like Michelle Obama tried to do & was totally demonized for it. Of course the USA needs to eat healthier however healthier foods are more expensive. Perhaps air a story on how hard it is for many to source & then afford to eat healthy.
BUT HEY, WE LOOK FORWARD TO CNN CREDULOUSLY REPORTING WHATEVER ANTI-VACCINE, PRO-MIRACLE-DRUG, ANTI-CHOICE BULLSHIT BOBBY BRAINWORMS' SHITSHOW COMES UP WITH NEXT.
American President & government should help poorer people to be able to afford good quality healthy food to families. Why aren’t the government/Republican Party who are in power not helping poor families with good healthy nutritious food which should be made affordable.
“Fox host Sean Hannity predicted that the healthy school lunch program will lead to a nanny state, asking if “every American family need[ed] a dietitian appointed by the government.”
do you need him to explain to you that there's a pretty clear line from biden's attempt to run for president despite clearly having dementia and the democrats losing the election?
why is your main goal ensuring the democrats repeat their mistakes?
How does the Trump Disadministration plan to reconcile the MAHA report with the fact that it is simultaneously lifting or abolishing many of the environmental regulations for toxic emissions, water and air quality, coal plants, automobile pollutants etc. Does it want to save children or kill them?
Ah, wasting time on reiterating for the umpteenth time that yes, fast food, candy, and frozen meals are indeed bad for you. Nobody has researched THAT before. How many millions of dollars were wasted on this?
As an autistic American, I’m offended by your efforts to launder MAHA they they are a eugenics movement that wants people like me dead. They’re not genuinely concerned with making Americans healthy. They want the “right people“ to die.
Yes. So write an article examining how much we can improve our country’s health if everyone has a living wage, affordable housing, and affordable universal healthcare. Like the other Western countries have. And don’t overlook how many kids and people die from guns. 🤷♀️
There is no such thing as an ultra processed food. There are processed foods that can be anything from the ridiculous desert monstrosities on tiktok to apple juice. This uncritical reporting is processed dog shit.
True. But holding in my thoughts every time I see something blatantly ignorant is probably bad for my health so I’m just doing self care at this point.
So, corporate america. Got it. I’m shocked. And I’m extremely interested to see how the GOP is going to try to do something about this, since they exist solely to further corporate interests. Where’s my popcorn.
Why when I click the link is there an ad for Jake Trapper’s book that no one even needs to read let alone purchase anymore because he’s basically told us every tidbit of the contents in his CNN infomercials. Just kidding I didn’t click your link cuz I’m boycotting CNN.
"Republicans fought back against healthy lunches for decades because they couldn't line their pockets but now they have found a way to line their pockets"
Much more than "contributing", this garbage, sold as food, has been poisoning people for decades. Stop allowing immoral profiteering to cause chronic suffering and premature death.
No fucking shit. This isn't news. We've known for years that this is the case. You know what else is contributing to chronic illnesses? The Trump regime gutting Medicare and trans healthcare
That's not true kids don't eat food they don't recognize and will eat balanced meals even if offered a combination of junk and healthy items the problem is we feed kids like they are in prison not like we are educating them on a key part of our culture. https://youtu.be/ovO18E-hgew?si=_xY5QwjLtDP8UeMn
But sure, let’s have uncontrolled unrestricted capitalism who can feed us the most dangerous garbage ever and it’s okay biz the companies make a buck or two extra profit.
Treating this report like actual news and its "findings" as anything more than MAGA propaganda is only the third- or fourth-dumbest thing CNN has done this week. It should not be regarded as a reputable news source.
Funny how RFK Jr never addresses access to preventative health care, to include sensible nutritional education. Or how the government subsiding the corn/wheat/soy growers in this country, have made junk food junkies out of so many of our people. Or just the lack of good healthy food is a problem
Because he doesn’t actually believe germs cause disease. He literally thinks the only way you can get sick if you have a bad diet, so all of his policies revolve around fad diets and not scientifically proven health care
Stop sucking trumps tiny micro cock you fuckin' weak ass morons...
Y'all greedy cunts are becoming State news just like fox news OANN ect...go fuck off.
Very hard to pay attention to MAHA when there isno real doctor heading it……I do however expect the govt. to be sending out VOO DOO dolls to all us citizens, I suppose that will be what is coming next instead of vaccinations….ohhh I do know poor diet isn’t good for our children…but we all knew that
Also, how about not being a stenographer for fascists? There's a way to word this headline that doesn't lend credence to Kennedy's lies and baseless claims
Yeah thats why Europe bans like a LOT of your food and in any trade deals you always try get us to lower out standards or rules. So maybe you needed something like this to finally realise YOU are the problem, not our laws.
Are the MAGA trailer park whales going to get the don't tread on me flags out about this like they did when Michelle Obama wanted children to eat nutritious food? Probably not
1) this isn’t about Jake Tapper’s book so something is clearly amiss.
2) the photo, which is what usually grabs folks’ attention, is of bad food. Okay, we all want healthier food — but the headline also refers to medicines. How about including some vaccine vials in the photo at least?
remember the wailing and gnashing of teeth and grown ass adults crying endlessly about Michelle Obama’s efforts to improve school lunch offerings? Yup … I do recall…
That's what I thought! Anyone with half a brain of awareness knows everything the report claims. All it does is show someone has the document creation skills to create (or maybe cut and paste from elsewhere) lots of sparkly charts and graphs. A skilled high school student could have done it.
I guess that's why the Trump Disadministration withdrew federal funds for health departments to test for STIs and funding for State Labs to do free STI testing from volunteer agencies.
Actually it’s mainly inactivity that is worrying since you need to move to get strong bones and good health while growing.The rest is marginal and can be treated with knowledge and changing habits
what's the regime gonna do, stick asbestos, lead, and uranium in the food supply and call it good?
fucking morons.
They have little to zero qualifications to make these "studies", as they hand pick the results.
I definitely CANNOT and WILL NOT trust any information coming from MAHA. I look forward to a time when I will be able to trust the federal health agencies again.

report on the fascism in the white house you spineless bastards
Second 'N' stands for 'noise'.
You guys suck.
I’m sure they have everyone’s best interests in mind.

Instead people kept saying everything was fine 🤦🏼♂️
Oil is wet and makes things wet but does not contain water.
You all are the dumbest
Even the Arabs catered to his love of McDonalds.
The obvious confusion is because there isn't anything (currently), so I just say, "Oh. You didn't hear about it then" while walking away.
They'd be bored w/o me.
to
appease magats
What's sad is that in this instance you're dumber than him.
No reason to watch CNN at the moment. None.
Fixed the headline for you
This headline may was well be, “New MAHA report suggests drinking bleach, gasoline, and water are bad for children”
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rsRjQDrDnY8
Maybe Fake Tapper can write a book about Big Macs.
And
To hell with CNN!!
CNN sucks so bad.
how long till the officially CNN branded foot appliques that drain heavy metals?
You no longer have any credibility and are a discredit to your "profession".
…most probably because it’s a photo of Trump’s lunch everyday of the week
Y'all greedy cunts are becoming State news just like fox news OANN ect...go fuck off.
Waiting for our next pandemic and wondering if or how your network will report it
ASK TRUMP IF HE'S THE ANTI-CHRIST.
ASK IF ELON IS THE DEVIL INCARNATE.
Do it you FUCKING COWARDS.

Should we quit eating it? I've stopped eating from Mac and Burger King long ago.
This purpose of this article is not to warn of unhealthy foods, it’s to legitimize RFK Jr’s department of health.
