From make America great again, came make America healthy again. Preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. The Constitution of the United States. So help me God. Congratulations Mr. President. We need somebody who is willing to come in and has the spine and the guts and the strength to challenge orthodoxies, to stand in the way of vested interests. The U.S. Department of Health and Social Affairs, HHS, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, USDA, at a school in Virginia. On April 22, HHS and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, FDA, made an important announcement. They are raising concerns about the correlation between petroleum-based synthetic dyes and several health conditions. McAree said that within the next few months, the agency will begin the process of recalling the approval of two synthetic dyes, Citrus Red No. 2 and Orange B. They will also cooperate with the industry to phase out the remaining six synthetic dyes from food at the end of 2026. When my uncle was president, 3% of American kids had chronic disease. Today it's around 60%. And these are a broad category, the ones that Marty mentioned, like ADHD, neurological disorders, ADD, ADHD, speech delay, language delay, tics, Tourette's syndrome, narcolepsy, ASD, autism. In order to replace the dyes, they plan to approve four new natural dyes over the next few weeks. At the same time, they encourage the approval of other natural alternatives. On the same day, USDA also praised the dairy industry, IDFA, for their promise to remove artificial dyes from the national school food program. According to a federal report from 2023, almost 70% of adult Americans are overweight or suffer from FETMA. Kennedy has also urged states to ban the use of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, SNAP, also known as food coupons, to buy food with low nutritional value. Indiana and Arkansas were the first states to ask USDA to exclude soda and candy from purchases via food coupons. Several other states are now considering the same thing. Other possible solutions could be to tax soda or improve the nutritional content in school lunches. Senator Bernie Sanders has proposed a ban on TV ads for unhealthy food aimed at children. In March, USDA and HHS announced that they would look over the current food advice and nutritional recommendations. New guidelines are planned to be presented before the end of the year. Another focus for Maha is to examine the causes of autism, as the diagnoses are rapidly increasing. New statistics from the U.S. Public Health Agency CDC show that one in 31 children in the U.S. has autism. An increase from one in 36 in 2020 and one in 150 in 2000. The head of the National Institutes of Health, NIH, says that they want to collect data from American journals. The NIH chief hopes to be able to begin publishing preliminary results within a year.
