The True Facts Behind RFK’s Health Policy Hit List

Date:

ON OCTOBER 25, two weeks before Donald Trump swept back into office with a swift and decisive victory, his future choice to lead the Department of Health & Human Services laid out his public health priorities in a tweet has been viewed more than 6.5 million times.

FDA’s war on public health is about to end. This includes its aggressive suppression of psychedelics, peptides, stem cells, raw milk, hyperbaric therapies, chelating compounds, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamins, clean foods, sunshine, exercise, nutraceuticals and anything else that advances human health and can’t be patented by Pharma. If you work for the FDA and are part of this corrupt system, I have two messages for you: 1. Preserve your records, and 2. Pack your bags.

Whoa. And when president-elect Trump later told Robert F. Kennedy Jr. he could “go wild” overseeing the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), among the other divisions of the HHS? Double whoa. Kennedy, an environmental lawyer, political activist, and former presidential candidate, has long subscribed to medical and scientific thinking well outside of the mainstream, and to many he’s a truth teller taking on Big Pharma and other establishment crooks. To others he’s a menace undercutting the public’s trust in health officials and government agencies.

At Men’s Health we believe that almost any question about health or wellness is a valid question, and of the 13 specific topics and treatments that Kennedy referenced in his now-famous tweet, there are lots of questions worth asking. About efficacy, about safety, about risk, and about how exactly we know what we think we know. The anwers aren’t always black and white—most things in medicine and science aren’t—so our editors spoke with dozens of experts from across the medical, scientific, and ideological spectrum to identify what we do and don’t know about psychedelics, peptides, and the rest of Kennedy’s hit list.

Will we answer all your questions and quell all your doubts? Nope. That’s not really how science works. But what we will do is present the latest facts and findings so that you can come to your own informed conclusions about what and who to believe. These conversations are only getting started, and you’re gonna want to read up.
