Local Food, National Health

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy hit Charlotte to champion local food production as a path to national health, teaming up with Rep. Tom Barrett on their “Make America Healthy Again” push. With obesity soaring to 35% and projected to hit 50% by 2030, they argue fresher, locally grown food is key—and that past government messaging misled Americans. Kennedy insists weight isn’t a personal failure, but a consequence of misinformation. Meanwhile, the Tank family from Eaton Rapids shares how growing their own food gives them control over nutrition, cutting back on dining out over ingredient concerns. They hope local food initiatives will spark change, but admit only time will tell if it works. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
