President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Feb. 13, establishing the president’s commission to “Make America Healthy Again.”

The announcement came just hours after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was sworn in as the new secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) in a ceremony led by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch.

The commission, chaired by Kennedy, will delve into the root causes of chronic diseases, particularly those affecting children and explore the impact of various factors such as medications, diet and environmental toxins.

The primary mission of the commission is to investigate the underlying causes of the chronic disease epidemic in the United States, with a special focus on childhood chronic diseases.

According to the executive order, the commission will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the problem and is required to release a report within 100 days. This assessment will include an examination of the overuse of medications, the impact of food ingredients and chemicals and other exposures that may contribute to poor health outcomes.

The commission will also scrutinize a wide range of factors, including the American diet, the absorption of toxic materials, medical treatments, lifestyle choices, environmental factors, government policies, food production techniques, electromagnetic radiation and corporate influence or cronyism. Federally funded health research will be held to higher standards of transparency and open-source data to avoid conflicts of interest, ensuring that the findings are reliable and actionable.

Key players and initial steps

The commission will include several high-ranking officials from various government agencies, including Trump’s Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy Vince Haley, Office of Management and Budget Director Russel Vought and Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins.

Other members include leaders from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Education, Department of Housing and Urban Development and several economic advisers.

During the swearing-in ceremony, Kennedy expressed his deep commitment to the cause, stating, “I have prayed each morning for the past two decades for God to put me in a position to solve the childhood chronic disease epidemic, and now, thanks to you Mr. President, we will make this promise a reality.”

He also praised Trump, saying, “And I’ve told you before, genuinely believe that you are a pivotal historical figure, and you are going to transform this country.”

Trump, in turn, highlighted Kennedy’s dedication, noting that he is “absolutely committed to getting dangerous chemicals out of our environment and out of our food supply, and getting the American people the facts and the answers that we deserve after years in which our public health system has squandered the trust of our citizens.”

The establishment of the Make America Healthy Again Commission comes at a critical time when chronic diseases, such as asthma, diabetes and autism, have reached epidemic levels among children and adults in the United States. These conditions not only affect the quality of life for millions of Americans but also strain the country’s healthcare system and economy.

The commission’s efforts to identify and address the root causes could lead to significant policy changes and public health interventions that could improve the overall health of the nation.

Historically, efforts to tackle public health crises have often required a multi-faceted approach, involving not only health agencies but also environmental, economic and educational institutions. The inclusion of such a broad range of government officials in the commission reflects a holistic approach to addressing the complex issue of chronic diseases.

The president’s commission to Make America Healthy Again represents a bold step in addressing one of the most pressing public health challenges facing the nation. With a mandate to investigate and report on the root causes of chronic diseases, the commission, led by Kennedy Jr., has the potential to usher in a new era of health and well-being for Americans.

The findings and recommendations of this commission could have far-reaching implications, influencing policies and practices across multiple sectors of society. As the commission begins its work, the nation watches with hope and anticipation for meaningful change.
