Send us a textIn this special bonus episode, I dive into a topic that’s been lighting up social media - our new U.S. Health Secretary, RFK Jr., and what his leadership could mean for the future of American health. After posting a now-viral image comparing outgoing Health Secretary Rachel Levine and incoming RFK Jr., I was shocked by the heated response it generated. Some people cheered, others raged, and many had strong opinions on both sides.   But here’s the real question: Can RFK Jr. actually make a difference in America’s declining health? Or is this just another political shake-up that won’t change the fact that we are sicker, fatter, and more dependent on big pharma than ever before?  In this episode, I break down:  ·      The viral social media post and why it sparked such a reaction  ·      The shocking reality of America’s declining metabolic health (only 6.8% of Americans are metabolically healthy!)  ·      The role of government in health policy - should we rely on politicians to fix our broken system?  ·      Why radical change is necessary to fight back against big food, big pharma, and government corruption  ·      What YOU can do to take control of your health and thrive, regardless of policy changes  If you’re frustrated with the current state of health in America and want to take charge of your own well-being, this episode is for you.     Support the Show:💪 If you enjoyed this episode, please help spread the word!  ⭐ Leave a 5-star review on your favorite podcast platform  📢 Share this episode with a friend who needs to hear this!  🔔 Subscribe so you never miss a future episode   Thank you for tuning in—until next time, stay strong!Want to rewrite the narrative of your life and health?
