It’s Time to Make America Healthy Again

If you want to know why Americans are so sick, look at the government-run schools injecting kids with processed foods filled with sugar and toxic ingredients banned in other nations.

For decades, the American people have placed enormous trust in government organizations such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Department of Agriculture, and public schools. Thanks to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Americans have opened their eyes to the corruption and dangers of these bureaucracies that increase disease and make the nation sick.

Restoration News obtained these recent photos of a few breakfast items in a Virginia public elementary school.

The images show microwave donuts in plastic, a microwave meat product on a stick in plastic, and Trix cereal.

These items, falsely labeled as “nutritious” receive funding by the Agriculture Department as part of a “healthy” school breakfast. You don’t have to be a dietician to know that injecting children with sugar and chemically altered oils is not a good way to start their day. The government thinks if they use the term “whole grain” that counts as healthy.

The main ingredients in the donuts: flour, water, sugar, vegetable shortening, palm oil, soybean oil, corn syrup, and a bunch of added “vitamins.” A disclaimer also reveals the item contains bioengineered food ingredients.

Trix cereal ingredients: whole grain corn, rice flour, sugar, corn syrup, canola oil, and more added “vitamins.”

A 2017 survey found more than 40 percent of children have at least one chronic health condition. In 2020, childhood obesity rates hit an all-time high with 20 percent of all American children categorized as obese. Studies found soybean oil to be a contributing factor to the obesity epidemic, yet it’s a key ingredient in many items served to children in public schools.

Children begin their day eating these processed foods—then schools require them to sit for hours and hours in a structured environment.

Many of these processed foods are heated in a microwave in a plastic covering. Plastics contain harmful cancer-causing chemicals that can leech into food when heated. Certainly not a healthy way to prepare a child’s brain for a good learning environment.

Banned in Europe, Greenlit in America

There are many food ingredients that are outlawed in Europe but permitted in the United States because there are different standards of measuring food safety. The United States takes the “generally recognized as safe (GRAS)” approach which allows “expert” opinions to determine food safety rather than proactive research through testing. In contrast, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) uses a different approach that requires a full safety assessment rather than relying on past scientific studies and opinions.

In the U.S., if a product might cause harm, the FDA tries to determine a maximum quantity of the ingredient still considered safe. In Europe, the product is not permitted to be used at all.

Potassium bromate is a food additive banned in Europe but still approved for use by the FDA. It’s a chemical widely used in baked products to make them rise higher and appear more uniform. According to Erik Millstone, an expert on the topic of food additives from the University of Sussex in England, potassium bromate can “initiate or promote the development of tumors.” Other countries such as Canada, Brazil, China, and South Korea have also outlawed potassium bromate. Yet it’s still used in baked goods in the United States. Plenty of brands do not use bromated flour, such as King Arthur and Bob’s Red Mill, but you have to search closely. Most certainly the donuts and other items in school breakfasts and lunches use bromated flour among the other toxic ingredients.

Read labels and educate yourself on the additives in your foods. The FDA certainly won’t look out for us.

Clean House by Putting Robert Kennedy, Jr in Charge

Robert Kennedy, Jr. has sounded the alarm for years about the dangers of chemicals used in the American food chain. Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement wants to tackle public health issues such as toxins in our foods. MAHA would also address the chronic disease epidemic through tackling the root cause of disease rather than just treating the symptoms.

Mr. Kennedy believes we must overhaul the American health care system—or sick care, as he rightfully calls it. Too many corporations control government agencies, such as in the pharmaceutical industry. There is no incentive to make Americans well because then they wouldn’t need to purchase costly drugs.

President Trump will certainly appoint Mr. Kennedy to a prominent spot in his administration to Make America Healthy Again!
