Can We (Really) Make America Healthy Again?

Can We Really Make America Healthy Again? Welcome back to the show! Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s as timely as it is complex: What would it take to truly “Make America Healthy Again”? Inspired by RFK's recent initiative, this conversation unpacks the rising public awareness of ultra-processed foods (UPFs), their impact on health, and how this intersects with our national food environment. I’m thrilled to be joined by Dr. David Wiss, a leading expert in food addiction research, nutrition, and eating disorder recovery. Together, we tackle some of the big questions that health professionals and parents alike are asking: Are UPFs really as harmful as they’re being portrayed? How does the “All Foods Fit” model evolve in light of what we now know about UPFs? What role do systemic and legal actions, like the first major lawsuit against UPF companies, play in this conversation? Why You’ll Love This Episode: Whether you’re a dietitian, a parent, or someone just trying to make healthier choices in a world dominated by processed options, this episode offers practical takeaways and profound insights.
