OPINION: Lecturing folks struggling to “eat real food” while cutting SNAP benefits and other forms of food assistance feels like a sick joke.

Whopper of the Week from Defend Public Health: Peptides are chemicals with medical potential but also possible dangers. Kennedy's vibes shouldn't set policy.

Whopper of the Week: RFK Jr’s Peptide Vibes Influence FDA Policies | Defend Public Health
RFK Jr is hyping peptides and promising changes to FDA rules that would make some unapproved peptides legally available from compounding pharmacies, despite concerns about their safety. His claims that the FDA “illegally” changed regulations for compounding pharmacies are not true. Kennedy is pushing the FDA to adopt an evidence free and potentially dangerous peptide policy.

Looks like RFK Jr. has lost some clout with this latest round of appointments. Also, I read today that he's gearing up to run for President again and causing measles is not a good look for him.
