At its core, the MAHA report argues that the real solution isn’t spending more money. It’s spending smarter. "And when we talk about payment reform, we're really talking about how we fund our broken healthcare system,” Makary explained. Instead of throwing dollars at downstream treatments, the report focuses on...

Then came the final speaker: FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary and he didn’t sugarcoat it [no pun intended]. “This is a historic day in the United States,” Makary said. “This begins the end of the government subsidization of our obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance epidemic.” He laid out the grim reality: American children are sicker than ever. “Look at where we are today: 40% of our nation’s kids now have a diagnosed chronic disease. 31% have diabetes, prediabetes or insulin resistance.” For too long, he said, we’ve focused on treatment costs, like insulin, without asking the deeper question: why are kids so sick in the first place? “We can’t keep just talking about the price of insulin. We also have to talk about what we are feeding children,” he said. “We need amazing treatments, and this FDA is committed to delivering cures and meaningful treatments.” “But we have to talk about nutrients and fiber, not just Ozempic and other medications to medicate our nation. We’re medicating our nation’s kids at scale.” Makary credited Kennedy’s long-time advocacy for pushing this shift from treatment to prevention. “You got me motivated,” he said, turning to Kennedy. “It’s just amazing to work in your leadership here.” Then he closed with the moment everyone in the room could feel. “For the first time ever, not just talking about how to fund our broken healthcare system—but how to fix our broken healthcare system by finally getting at the root issue. And that is the health of the population, starting with children.” These were the words of someone committed to a revolution.

One dynamic everyone should understand: Many “leaders” put hatred of RFK and President Trump over children’s health. This hatred leads pundits like Jerome Adams to troll about someone’s dead mother. The focus at HHS is that many Americans, including my mother, die of disease that are preventable. We think it’s a big deal that hospitals, schools and military serve inflammatory food. We think it’s a big deal that we spend three times more than any other country for healthcare but have worse outcomes. We think a lot of this has to do with the healthcare system systemically not appreciating the underlying root causes of disease. A great example of that is in the food hospitals serve patients who are suffering from chronic disease. My mom’s “dying wish” wasn’t to have a Coke. The takeaway I had after her death is that it says a lot about our system that obese and diabetic patient are served inflammatory food at scale in hospitals. The Trump admin is executing common sense actions every day to reverse these incentives. This is fueled by a deep concern for children’s health - which is at shameful levels right now. Just last year, whole food purchases went up ~8% - that will have a profound public health impact. Schools, military bases, prisons, and hospitals will serve better food. Food companies, who have played by the rules and we hope thrive, are acknowledging there is a problem and making changes. This is a big deal. Through a mix of Trump hatred and personal incentives, an army of foot soldiers like Jerome are doing whatever they possibly can to defend the status quo and convince Americans it’s acceptable.
