Thank you @martinburcharth for the opportunity to discuss #MAHA, its revolutionary May first report, its return to the status quo draft second report, and the promising SNAP diet quality pilots of @SecRollins. 12 in 6 mos. We failed to get 1 in 6 yrs. https://t.co/Dt6NotrPy4

Hey #MAHA & #UPF peeps. A must see. Learn about @DavidAKesslerMD brilliant petition to regulate the most harmful UPF. Then ask @SecKennedy to grant it. @drmarkhyman @calleymeans @KevinH_PhD @ChrisPalmerMD @CMonteiro_USP @DoctorChrisVT

Not #MAHA. Dire warning from from 9 former CDC directors that served under multiple Republican and Democratic administrations — every president from Jimmy Carter to Donald Trump.

"We decided that if a food had an ingredient that we don’t use or could barely pronounce (e.g., maltodextrin, soy lecithin, guar gum), then we wouldn’t buy it." See it's easy. Don't fall for food industry baloney that we need a rigorous definition. https://t.co/4qpPPtM7Ah

Important comments on latest #UPF research from nutrition expert @marionnestle confirming MAHA was right to mention UPF 44x in its first report and that the WH let food lobbyists write the new draft that mentions UPF once. @SecKennedy needs to regulate UPF https://t.co/88bjFSrPV6

30% of our children are sick with big-food caused chronic disease: obesity, T2D, fatty-liver. American parents are demanding change and turned to MAHA for help. RFK Jr & the Trump administration have turned to big-food for answers. https://t.co/0RCrPTM3sE

UPFs mentioned only once? Hopefully an early draft or a big win for big food lobbyists. https://t.co/3i1UJ3ZIog via @NYTimes

A gift & a challenge. How will RFK Jr respond? David Kessler hands RFK Jr and MAHA a gift: Define Ultra-Processed Foods as Not GRAS - Food Politics by Marion Nestle

Will @SecKennedy⁩ have the courage to take on the powerful UPF industry? We hope so. But this is a troubling sign. Trying to develop a uniform UPF definition is the industry dream. It will delay action for years. We have a good enough def. Time to act.

Thank you @NancyatHeart, @GardnerPhD, @HeartNews for this important, timely UPF update. It’s time for @SecKennedy & @SecRollins to act to reduce the most troubling UPF in school meals to #MAHA https://t.co/ov4VeI8irQ

A copy of the petition can be found here ( https://t.co/ULoucalev5). The letter to Secretary Kennedy is here ( https://t.co/7UNbA3Bzl6).

Ginormous nutrition news! 👏👏👏@DavidAKesslerMD has given a gift and roadmap to @SecKennedy to #MAHA. It reduced youth smoking from 30 to 2% and can do the same to food-caused child chronic disease. https://t.co/WYFUPOFsrP

Thank you @NancyatHeart for your leadership & support.

Insightful reporting by the outstanding journalist @jane_black https://t.co/qN2DAdY2eT

“I do give RFK Jr. a lot of credit for making chronic disease caused by our food, principally obesity, a political priority,” Mande said. “I give them an incomplete in terms of what they’re going to do about it.”

Thank you @GBHForumNetwork for the timely UPF coverage. Our kids shouldn't be sick. @SecRollins & @SecKennedy should help schools remove UPF from our school lunchrooms.

“We’ve ended up with a food industry that makes people sick and then a sick care industry that takes care of them,” said @Nourish_Science CEO @JerryMande.

@thefoodbabe @realTanyaTay @just_a_mom4rfk --> check out our new study w/ the science on the state of poor U.S. nutrition. Fact: what #MAHA says about poor U.S. diet quality is real. https://t.co/Pc9HaxEAMH

3/3: Science must underpin national nutrition policies/programs. We’ve outlined a novel set of evidence-based categories to measure the national state of diet quality & track improvements over time.
