First MAHA health report calls for reassessing medicines, processed foods, pesticides

A Trump administration report blames poor diet, toxins, unhealthy habits, and pharmaceuticals for a rise in chronic childhood illnesses. The "Make America Healthy Again" commission recommends reassessing the childhood vaccine schedule, scrutinizing ultra-processed foods, and studying pesticides. While the report doesn't explicitly link vaccines to autism, it acknowledges parental concerns. Farmers and food manufacturers express concerns about potential impacts on the food supply, particularly regarding pesticide use. The report calls for further research and suggests overprescription of pharmaceuticals in children, but lacks a concrete budget for proposed studies.
