Your kids are being poisoned. That s the biggest issue your kids should know about, and we're here to explain it from every angle. Today's guest is Dr. Casey Means, who went on Tucker Carlson's show with her sister, Callie, to discuss her new book, "Your Kids Are Being Poisoned: How to Stop Poisoned Kids from Getting Sick and Grow Wealth." Casey is a pediatrician, author, activist, and political strategist. She's also the co-author of the book "Good Energy: That is Good Energy" and co-founder of Turning Point USA, a youth organization dedicated to fighting for freedom on college campuses across the country. She's one of the most impactful people I've ever met, and I'm so excited to have her on The Charlie Kirk Show today! In this episode, Casey shares her story and how she became a political activist and activist. She explains how she got her start in the political world, and why you should be worried about what s going on in the world of food, medicine, vaccines, and other industries that are poisoning your kids. and how you can protect your kids from being poisoned by food, drugs, and pharmaceuticals. You're not going to get much better information about what's going on than this in today's episode! If you want to learn more about food, nutrition, and vaccines, then you need to listen to this episode. This episode is a must-listen to hear it! You won't want to know more about it.

It s about to get sick and better than that. - Charlie Kirk - Sam The Charlie, Sam TheCharlie Kirk Show - The Charlie and Casey Means
00:00:39.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:00:46.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:28.000I've been following you for quite some time, and then I could not listen to the podcast episode quick enough when you went on Talker, which was objectively one of the most entertaining and insightful episodes, podcasts I've ever heard.
00:02:13.000Why don't you introduce yourself first?
00:02:15.000Yeah, the quick life story is I grew up in Washington, D.C., wanted to be on campaigns, was on some Republican campaigns, and I never really found myself a lobbyist, which everyone does after campaigns.
00:02:25.000So I'm working with people across the aisle for food and pharma.
00:02:28.000And with food companies, I helped Coke pay off the NAACP to say that taking Coke off food stamps is racist.
00:02:35.000We paid conservative think tanks to say it was against freedom to deny children government-funded coke.
00:02:42.000And then with pharma, learned the foundational incentive that the healthcare industry in this country, just as a statement of economic fact, makes money when people are sick.
00:02:52.000And capitalism is the greatest invention in human history, but this isn't capitalism.
00:02:57.000We have complete takeover where there's five lobbyists in pharma for every single member of Congress.
00:03:05.000And just fundamentally, right now, healthcare is the largest and fastest growing industry in the country.
00:03:14.000And putting the pieces together, getting out of that, becoming an entrepreneur, being influenced by my sister who is top of her class at Stanford Med School.
00:03:20.000Top of her class at Stanford Med School, was rising up the ranks, NIH researcher, head and neck surgeon, and she realized 12 years into training that she looked down at a patient and she did not understand why they were sick.
00:04:07.000I think it really to me ties to this key political dynamic in our country, which is fueling Donald Trump, which is fueling RFK, which is fueling populist uprisings throughout the world.
00:04:19.000But people can't quite put their finger on it, but something is against us right now.
00:04:23.000There are dark incentives against us, and what we are trying to say, and truly, we decided to devote our lives to this right after our mom died in 2021.
00:04:31.000We're like, we need to get this message out, and we need to start talking about it.
00:04:35.000I think it's a way to channel actually this frustration people are feeling that can't quite put their finger on, and the way to channel Corruption, and the way to channel these forces that we all feel are against us, it's just, it's a great case study to look at our healthcare system, where, again, a pharma company makes money when a kid gets sick.
00:04:53.000There is nothing better than a kid being obese.
00:04:57.000No, no, no, but then, therefore, do they want people to get sick?
00:05:01.000I'm just saying, wouldn't it be logical, if you make money when someone is sick, at the very least, are they indifferent to people getting sick?
00:05:29.000So instead of explaining that, and instead of the medical system trying to get that kid off of this treadmill of pharmaceuticals, we're prescribing statins We're prescribing metformin, which has doubled in the past five years among high schoolers, and then antidepressants.
00:05:41.000You talk to any parent with high school kids, they're prescribed like candy.
00:05:47.000And now the American Academy of Pediatrics, which is paid for by pharma, is saying ozempic should be the first-line defense for 12-year-olds.
00:05:53.000And they're doing studies on 6-year-olds.
00:05:56.000So if you're a parent with a high schooler and your kid's a little bit distracted, it's Adderall, of course.
00:06:00.000If your kid has slightly high cholesterol, it's statin.
00:06:04.000Now if they're a little bit overweight, ozempic.
00:06:06.000So the spiritual problem of this, where the healthcare system, which has bought off the academic research, which has bought off the politicians, which has bought off the levers of trust, they're saying it's just like COVID.
00:06:18.000You're anti-science unless you give that kid Ozempic, unless you give that kid a statin.
00:06:22.000And what's happening is absolute devastation among kids.
00:06:26.000I mean, 50% of teens are overweight or obese.
00:06:29.000It's 3% childhood obesity rate in Japan.
00:06:32.00020% of teens have fatty liver disease.
00:06:35.00040% of kids qualify as having a mental health disorder.
00:06:42.000This, you look at the graphs, it all started around 1990.
00:06:46.000And, you know, just digging into the corruption, in 1990, the two largest food companies in the world were cigarette companies.
00:06:54.000So, as the Surgeon General pushed the cigarette companies to, you know, pushed against cigarettes, they used their cash piles in the 1980s to buy food companies.
00:08:25.000Which, I don't know if they do or not.
00:08:28.000So, is there any evidence that the cigarette companies going into food, that they had the intent to go into something addictive?
00:08:37.000Oh, this is something I talk about a lot.
00:08:39.000They bought the rationale of buying food companies.
00:08:44.000Again, just to set the context, Philip Morris and R.J.
00:08:46.000Reynolds, now it's like Google and Microsoft, they were top 10 most valuable companies in the world in the 1980s, the biggest cash piles of any company in human history.
00:08:56.000So this is a documented shareholder education.
00:08:58.000We are going to buy food companies, and we're going to use our scientists strategically to make food more palatable and make it more addictive.
00:09:05.000And then they were also going to use their lobbying power to buy off the USDA and the FDA.
00:09:10.000So the toxic stew that our children exist in right now, where the USDA to this day says a diet 92% and ultra-processed food can be healthy for kids, they recommend added sugar to two-year-olds.
00:09:22.000I don't have any lecture to any parent what to feed their kids, but the USDA should not be recommending sugar to your two-year-olds.
00:09:30.000It was a lobbying instrument from the cigarette industry about food companies.
00:09:34.000They very strategically paid the Sugar Research Council at Harvard to create research saying sugar doesn't cause obesity, and that carbs were really important, and that animal-based fats were vilified.
00:09:58.000Then you take those studies saying sugar doesn't cause obesity, and you slam that on the table of the regulators.
00:10:03.000The regulators are also paid by the food companies.
00:10:05.000So it creates, through a very strategic effort of using the Harvard research to influence the USDA, it creates the food pyramid, which said animal-based fats are bad, which said carbs are the center, sugar is the center.
00:10:18.000And Americans listen to medical authorities.
00:10:20.000We shifted our diet, 20% of our diet, to carbs in the next 10 years.
00:10:25.000So by the... and every parent who fed their kids this crap thought they were doing the
00:10:29.000right thing, you know, because they were listening to the science.
00:10:38.000And I have questions about, are American carbohydrates the same as European carbohydrates?
00:10:42.000Because there's this idea that the way that we farm is different than Europe, so then even if a carb-heavy diet in Europe actually might be more beneficial than here.
00:11:58.000This is being totally phased out of Europe and the rest of the world.
00:12:01.000And these ultra-processed grains that are sprayed with chemicals that are known neurotoxins, that are then processed in a way that takes the fiber off, so they're basically just hidden sugar.
00:12:11.000You know, by the time it gets into our bodies through this packaged food, it's indistinguishable.
00:12:17.000And you know, in France, I don't want to give France any credit whatsoever, but they have real standards around their food and their crops are not sprayed with these toxic chemicals.
00:12:27.000So, so I think you're going to continue to see our grains and the stuff we spread on them.
00:12:32.000It's doing terrible things to our cells just because it's hidden sugar, but it's also disrupting our microbiome, which is something we should be really paying attention to.
00:12:39.000Our guts are destroyed right now, and we're not getting the prebiotics or the probiotics necessary to culture the billions of dollars, billions of healthy bacteria needed in our stomach.
00:14:19.000The agencies co-opting the government to have no oversight of this and have our kids' microbiomes absolutely out of control is not the free market.
00:14:34.000Yeah, I mean, the foundational premise we talk about in the book is that we really should be looking at what people ate 10,000 years ago, what we're evolutionarily made to eat, and eat that.
00:14:43.000Fundamentally, if you're raising grains the way they have been normally made, you know, without a ton of pesticides on them, that's a good thing.
00:14:50.000In Europe, the meat is generally grass-fed and how it's been used to grow, not in a factory.
00:14:56.000So, Callie, then, the pro-glyphosate crew would say cost.
00:15:00.000So how much more expensive would it be to do non-pesticide, non-glyphosate mass farming at industrial scale that would then give us more nutrients and also allow the soil to naturally regenerate?
00:15:59.000We are feeding kids processed toxic crap, and that is leading to trillions of dollars of downstream health impacts.
00:16:06.000So, interestingly, again, I hate to give Europe credit, but Europe, they have a two times per capita lower health care cost, but spend a little bit more on food.
00:16:13.000So, I would urge everyone to see our regenerative farming budget as part of our health care budget.
00:16:18.000If we're going to have the money, we should fund it.
00:16:21.000It's nothing short of a moral blind spot.
00:16:47.000And they have a lot of power in this country.
00:16:49.000And I think if you talk to farmers, a lot of them are behind what's happening with Robert Kennedy and President Trump.
00:16:56.000I actually think if you push farmers on other angles, they're not too happy with the USDA agriculture incentives.
00:17:03.000I think farmers do have to play by the incentives.
00:17:07.000We subsidize ultra-processed food ingredients, corn, soy, wheat, these core kind of ultra-processed food crops with 95% of agriculture subsidies.
00:17:54.000So I have a strong belief... We have a ton.
00:17:59.000Of billions of dollars of incentives that create and incentivize our ultra-processed food system.
00:18:04.000If that follows the science, and just even taking those incentives away, we'd be at a mud... I trust farmers to make the right decision, but we incentivize them to use these toxic chemicals.
00:18:31.000I want, let's just at least be on the same page about what glyphosate is doing.
00:18:35.000Then the public policy chips can fall where they may.
00:18:38.000I do think if you get into what I, and you know, President Trump can obviously speak for himself, but if you get into what I would recommend, the first year should be about the truth.
00:18:47.000It should not be about any taxes, any ban—like, get that off the table.
00:18:50.000But the USDA should be saying, like they're doing in Europe and around the world, what these Chinese chemicals that we're subsidizing and spraying our food, what they're doing.
00:18:58.000We should all just be on the same page.
00:19:00.000And we have a similar thing where we have with COVID, where we're just not getting the correct information because these industries that make and profit from this system have bought the institutions off.
00:19:13.000Get the truth out and stop changing, change the incentives that are incentivizing this industrial monocropping and work with farmers to get back to a free market is what I would say.
00:20:42.000If we have some semblance of a free market system, how will it ever then be in the healthcare company's best interest to heal when you can make more money when they're sick?
00:21:51.000The fact that literally a poor person is incentivized to get sick, to not to get healthy, to not practice metabolic healthy habits, and just to go on drugs is a problem.
00:22:00.000And then, pharma's rigged it that there's, you know, Ozimbic costs ten times more than Germany and Scandinavia.
00:22:37.000So if you're buying Ozempic out of pocket, you'll get a coupon from the drug companies and you'll pay, you know, $700.
00:22:44.000But by law, by law, the Medicare and Medicaid cannot use the coupon.
00:22:49.000They have to pay the full sticker price.
00:22:51.000So at Ozempic, there's a big bill to have it count for Medicare and Medicaid.
00:22:55.000It's going to be $1,600 per person per month from the government, and there's a target market of almost 80% of Americans who are overweight or obese.
00:23:01.000This is how the system—so you have fundamentally government as the main payer.
00:23:06.000It's the fastest-growing part of our budget.
00:23:09.000And the reason health care costs are growing is because of this embedded incentive that the laws are made by this corrupted industry.
00:23:16.000They've got the science from academic institutions where I was funneling money as a lobbyist to get reports saying right now they're literally saying obesity is genetic.
00:24:42.000We're attached from just fund the Sun.
00:24:45.000We're detached from this fundamental inputs that create health and we're told there's a Savior with a jab or with a pill that dynamic is producing an unhealthy unhappy population and just mathematically will bankrupt us.
00:24:59.000So let's take one of the countries you mentioned.
00:25:11.000What are two things Japan does that we don't do that we should adopt?
00:25:17.000Yeah, if things the president can sign tomorrow is Japan, it doesn't allow their scientific research institutions to be paid by food or pharma companies.
00:25:43.000Is that we worship markets, we love markets, but markets have kind of created this insidious corporate oligarchy that then influenced the intellectual positions that then, of course, influence what we do.
00:25:55.000Yeah, and I think what has to happen is we need to, you know, just ask simple questions.
00:26:01.000I mean, should Harvard Med School be able to have 50% of their budget from pharma as they're receiving billions of dollars of government grants?
00:26:08.000They say there's no conflict of interest.
00:26:49.000So my sister graduated med school and had to choose one of 42 specialties.
00:26:54.000We'd segment the body and disease into all these different silos.
00:26:58.000Metabolic health is what's happening to our cells, how our cells are powering our body, which is fueled by simple things like our amount of sunlight, our amount of sleep, the food that we're eating.
00:27:07.000And if you look at the top killers of Americans, 9 out of 10 killers of Americans are foundationally metabolic disorders.
00:27:22.000COVID was an attack on our weakened immune system.
00:27:25.000People in Japan died three times at a lower rate per capita than the people in the U.S.
00:27:29.000COVID should have been a wake-up call.
00:27:30.000And this is where the corruption comes in, right?
00:27:32.000There could have been a moment where Dr. Fauci, you know, stood up there And talked about how this is a wake-up call for our immune system, right?
00:27:40.000This is a wake-up call of how we got to harden up a little bit and steer our collective healthcare thinking to get the corruption of food and pharma out and actually talk about how basic habits.
00:27:49.000I mean, again, this isn't political, but it's just like we can't go on continuing to poison ourselves.
00:27:54.000Kids get two hours less sleep than they did a hundred years ago.
00:27:57.000Kids are sitting in such a sedentary environment at schools and our incentives that 77% of
00:28:03.00021-year-olds are not eligible to join the military and the military is considering lowering
00:28:07.000the standards because we have such a metabolic health crisis.
00:28:11.000Metabolic health is how our cells are powered and if our cells are not powered correctly,
00:28:15.000that the cells in the brain show up as depression, the cells in the liver show up as liver issues.
00:28:40.000If there's something I'm missing, then tell me.
00:28:42.000No, we go step by step through those exact factors.
00:28:45.000I mean, the key thing that Casey learned at Stanford Medical School, and I learned as a lobbyist for pharma, is the goal is to make it complicated.
00:28:52.000The goal is to make you think that your heart issues, your high cholesterol, high blood sugar, obesity, depression are different siloed issues.
00:29:02.000Fundamentally, if you are getting the right amount of omega-3s and omega-3 supplementation, that's a more effective intervention for depression than an antidepressant.
00:29:11.000Fundamentally, diabetes is not... Same with methylfolate.
00:29:14.000It's way more... I have it right here.
00:29:16.000We go through the supplementation... Much better than SSRIs or benzos.
00:29:20.000So, yeah, foundationally, at the highest level, We have kids in sedentary environments force-fed ultra-processed food with a weapon of mass destruction for chronic stress in their pocket, and we're drugging them.
00:29:35.000When their core inputs that impact their cells, that impact their cells' ability to make energy, are under threat.
00:29:41.000We have to understand this environment the kids are living in and talk openly about that.
00:29:46.000It starts with the science not being corrupted.
00:29:48.000So, I want to make sure we're fair about the American healthcare system.
00:29:51.000There's one thing the healthcare system is good at, and that is acute.
00:30:37.000All medical attention after World War II, taking the trust of antibiotics and medical innovations to help win World War II, they said, we can convince people of lifestyle conditions.
00:30:46.000So by 1970s, 30% of American women were on Valium.
00:30:49.000The cover of Time Magazine was Valium Nation.
00:32:03.000But if your doctor is pulling out a prescription pad to get your kid on a statin, or something that's not going to kill you or your kid right away.
00:33:02.000If she says I can only afford Lunchables, my response would be, at the highest level, it is personal responsibility, you are poisoning your child.
00:33:09.000And you are setting your child up for a life of more metabolic dysfunction.
00:33:12.000If your child gets diabetes by the time they're 30, they're going to die 15 years younger than an average American.
00:33:16.000They're going to have a four times higher chance of committing suicide.
00:33:20.000They're going to be a less happy, more tortured child.
00:33:23.000We are poisoning our children at scale.
00:33:25.000And to that mom, I would say it is your responsibility to do whatever you need to do to not feed your kid ultra processed crap.
00:33:32.000And it just literally gets down to that.
00:33:34.000Not even getting organic or this other stuff.
00:33:35.000If you can just take the 70% ultra-processed food is the average child right now, take
00:33:40.000it down to 20% or below, your child is going to demonstrably live a much healthier, happier,
00:33:56.000And it's not worried about the mom's circumstances.
00:33:59.000You know, when the medical system talks about prescribing drugs, there's no equivocation.
00:34:03.000We need that same type of communication about food.
00:34:06.000Why is the media censoring anyone who questions a pharmaceutical product but not taking that same stance to metabolic health and food?
00:34:14.000And kind of a flippant attitude about it's kind of a foregone conclusion that kids are going to eat poisonous food.
00:34:19.000When 9 out of 10 killers of Americans are chronic conditions, and 33% of young adults now are pre-diabetes, and 50% of teens are... It's actually a tone of the medical system.
00:34:27.000So what should happen immediately is every single doctor with a child who's metabolic and healthy or overweight should be really clear with the mom that she is setting that child up for failure.
00:34:36.000So we need actually bottoms up, obviously empowerment, to talk to people like adults.
00:34:45.000My heart absolutely goes out to that mom.
00:34:47.000And from the top-down policy solutions, President Trump and the RNC platform, most people didn't see this, there was one big line on health.
00:34:55.000It said, we support benefit flexibility.
00:34:56.000And that's what we're talking about with HSAs.
00:34:58.000A single mom should be able to have an account where it's not just top-down, your kid needs drugs.
00:35:04.000Right now, Medicaid is like, okay, your kid has this, drugs.
00:35:07.000And they wait for the kid to get sick.
00:35:09.000What if, and this is what President Trump's talked about, this is what's in the RNC platform,
00:35:13.000what if people had flexible accounts where that mom could actually choose
00:35:18.000to invest in exercise for her child, to invest in actually research supplementation,
00:35:52.000There's not as bad options out there, correct?
00:35:56.000There's growing startups that have organic type competitors to juice boxes.
00:36:01.000What then, I know you wrote this in the book, but advice or direction, farmers markets, at some point it's also, are you just being lazy and you want the easy way out?
00:36:12.000Yeah, so as Casey talks about absolutely like we've had and she talks about this very eloquently that feminism has convinced people that it's somehow lesser to cook food for your family and we've absolutely been destroying like at home cooking.
00:36:24.000So I think that is essential somebody in the partnership doing that.
00:38:17.000This is what we're talking, what I'm advising.
00:38:22.000There's policy implications here, but we at least need to all be on a common knowledge about the facts.
00:38:27.000It is probably not a good thing that the top source of American calories is engine lubricant that was created 80 years ago and we're not evolutionary made yet.
00:38:36.000Again, I'm not a liberal, but I will say though that the higher up the income ladder you get, the more concern I see for healthy eating.
00:38:44.000The lower, it's just they say, this is too expensive, it's too much.
00:38:47.000I see the byproducts, I just, the healthy food stores, like True Foods for example, which I'm sure you're aware of, tend to be cloistered in higher income areas.
00:38:57.000Luxury belief for the rich, being able to go to True Foods, have edamame, guacamole, and an ancient grains bowl with all naturally sourced stuff, and a single mom in the West Valley can barely afford her rent.
00:39:11.000So, I'm saying getting her to care as much.
00:39:14.000So, this is my framework on it, Charlie.
00:39:16.000I think the fact that we see not poison your kids as a luxury belief is how far we've gotten away from, I think, the reality.
00:39:25.000You can absolutely stereotype, you know, guacamole and organic quinoa.
00:39:30.000But if you talk to that—you tell me, you're talking to a lot of them—if you talk to that lower-income voter, they're very concerned about their kids.
00:39:38.000It's just there's an exhaustion and fatigue, and there's just a financial despair.
00:39:43.000So I think the Make America Healthy Again movement that is now brewing is actually—there's a couple steps before telling that voter to go to Whole Foods and buy organic quinoa.
00:39:55.000It's actually, we need a political movement that's fighting to protect kids.
00:40:57.000And I think this does connect with that voter.
00:40:59.000There's forces at work that are making a lot of money by that poor child being sick.
00:41:05.000A poor child who's a woman dies 15 years younger than a rich woman in America.
00:41:12.000That is predominantly because of our toxic food environment.
00:41:15.000And there is many, many things we can start to do to root out that corruption, those forces that profit from that kid being sick, well before, you know, lecturing them to go to Whole Foods.
00:41:26.000So, you know Bobby Kennedy pretty well.
00:41:28.000You've been advising both him and the Trump campaign.
00:41:30.000What is your take on them combining forces?
00:41:33.000Yeah, I just want to say this from my very small vantage point, is that this was not about horse trading.
00:41:38.000This was not about, you know, kind of polling.
00:41:43.000This was hours and hours of true emotional connection on what I think they've both talked about, like what issue could be more important?
00:41:51.000What issue could be more important that a child born today is going to live shorter than their parents right now in America?
00:41:57.000What is just more important that, you know, this epidemic rate of mental health issues and chronic disease among kids?
00:42:04.000We are truly, when you look at the stats, poisoning our population.
00:42:09.000And it's because of these forces that have propelled, I think, President Trump's movement.
00:42:13.000There's this thing that people can't quite put their finger on, but there's dark forces against us and there's institutions that are failing.
00:42:20.000They, again, from my small vantage point, all I can say is there was true bonding on that issue and a desire to put this existential topic more at the top of the national conversation.
00:42:36.000It was really just a bond over that, and I think you've seen that happening over the past couple days.
00:42:42.000For over 23 years, Selective Search has been America's leading matchmaking authority, especially for conservatives and people of faith.
00:42:50.000They know the challenges you face trying to find someone who respects your traditional family values and is on the same page politically.
00:42:56.000So if you are a 35 to 45 year old man who loves God, loves his country, and wants a family, Selective Search has female clients looking to meet you.
00:44:00.000So fundamentally, the framework is stop recommending the crap and stop incentivizing it.
00:44:06.000And I do think there's a meeting, actually, with 100 members of Congress in my coalition over the next month, bipartisan.
00:44:13.000I mean, you know, there's a lot Congress can do.
00:44:16.000But I'll just give a couple examples of how you just root out this corruption, root out this environment that's profitable against being sick.
00:44:43.000There literally is a drug commercial on there.
00:44:45.000Not a single, not a single segment, not a single segment on the mainstream news about the fact that 33% of kids have prediabetes.
00:44:54.000And then of course COVID, you know, was all about a pharmaceutical solution instead of the fact that this was preying on our immune systems.
00:45:00.000There's not a bigger issue than the obesity and chronic disease crisis among kids, but the reason they don't talk about it is obvious, because they're paid for by pharma.
00:45:07.000With one stroke of a pen, just as Reagan initiated D2C advertising, we cannot be the only country in the world that— Does it require legislative— No!
00:45:17.000It was an executive order to an FDA department.
00:45:19.000That was how it was created by Reagan.
00:45:21.000I'm an amazing president, but I think a mistake on this one.
00:45:24.000And there's nothing conservative or liberal that the pharmaceutical industry that, as a demonstrable fact— So wait, you can make it illegal to advertise?
00:45:31.000Yeah, and we're the only country that allows it.
00:45:32.000And it's a beautiful situation, because that's a— Oh man, they would riot.
00:45:36.000So it's a 90% support that would have, at least, and it would cut—maybe I'm telegraphing too much here—but They're going to freak out, but it would cut 50%.
00:45:44.000I mean, everyone should be shorting media stocks.
00:45:48.000Well, the media companies would riot, too.
00:45:49.000They would say it's an assault on free speech, but it would be... Could you imagine a more beautiful situation than what they would possibly say?
00:46:04.000The president has a lot of constitutional authority, and we get in the state of emergency.
00:46:10.000You know, the Federalist Papers talked about this.
00:46:11.000There's several areas, including public health and, you know, taking executive authority on military stuff where the president is endowed with some authority.
00:46:21.000And if the president sees a public health crisis like with COVID, there were a lot of that was executive authority.
00:46:27.000There's no more important issue in the country right now than the chronic disease crisis or more.
00:47:28.000You could, tomorrow, with a stroke of a pen, say that the USDA and NIH Guideline Committees that make guidelines on standards of care and nutrition guidelines can't take members that have conflicts of interest.
00:47:40.000That sounds like something everyone would assume already happens.
00:49:48.000And I think my just high level point, and just my personal opinion, is the Make America Healthy Again platform should be robustly working with bipartisan members of Congress and looking at executive actions To really build a movement around getting kids healthier.
00:50:07.000And I think as you do that, you actually uncover and shine light on systemic regulatory capture that is hurting our country in many other areas that we're talking about from the military-industrial complex to what I would argue is, frankly, an education-industrial complex that does not have our kids' interests at heart.
00:50:27.000So I think that would just be my personal argument is, a platform of robust action.
00:50:32.000And I would just say, and this is what my opinion is, I'm advising strongly on, this is not hard to unwind.
00:51:50.000The two people, the two sides that have followed up and shown a genuine, deep, emotional, almost spiritual connection to this issue is the Trump campaign and the RFK campaign.
00:52:00.000And right now, they're the people who understand this issue, and they're the people who are going to fight with us.
00:52:06.000Is corporate media generally embracing your message and what you talk about in your book?
00:52:13.000Yeah, the book Good Energy is the number one book in the country, number one on Amazon charts the past 14 days.
00:52:25.000The best-selling health book this year, we have had a complete and utter blackout from mainstream media.
00:52:30.000So why won't the media cover the number one book in the world?
00:52:33.000This book is in my sister's voice, and it is not one word of politics or partisanship.
00:52:39.000It is a manual for personal empowerment.
00:52:41.000It really hits on what you've been probing on, Charlie, of what a family can do on a budget.
00:52:46.000It is a positive book, and I have heard from friends behind the scenes at NBC and other networks that because it even hints on a criticism of pharmaceutical
00:52:56.000companies and food companies, which are their two largest advertisers, it's a complete
00:52:59.000I mean, but look, I just hope our audience understands you have the number one book in
00:54:00.000It is literally the same branch as diabetes.
00:54:04.000PCOS not only can be reversed quickly through a keto diet, it also is a warning sign that mother has essentially some kind of early diabetes.
00:54:11.000We have a friend who their doctor was like, oh, you have PCOS.
00:54:16.000Two months did a prolon fast. I know diet got pregnant 30 days like six days later
00:54:21.000They wanted to put her on drugs. Oh, yeah, and all this and she went back to the doctor was like well
00:54:25.000I got pregnant all these like oh weird things happen sometimes no contrition no admission no understanding and
00:54:31.000Charlie just the last point This is where things can change quickly.
00:54:36.000It's just get that conversation between the doctor and the patient.
00:54:40.000That doctor recommending drugs instead of a keto diet, that's corrupt.
00:54:44.000And we just need to have the correct science in the medical guidelines.
00:54:48.000We just need to literally follow the science.
00:54:51.000The most important dynamic in this country is when a patient has a chronic condition and they're sitting across the doctor and that doctor starts getting them on a pharmaceutical treadmill.
00:54:59.000We just need to enforce and make sure that doctors follow the science.
00:57:13.000Actually, if the medical system just had that moral courage and pharmaceutical CEOs and the dean of Harvard Med School who takes millions of dollars from pharmaceutical companies on personal payments, if they just started actually just fighting for kids, fighting with the moral clarity that Donald Trump and RFK have spoken about at the last speech, start talking like that.
00:57:32.000But, I mean, in my own opinion, you don't have to say this, Kamala Harris is purchased by the very same food companies and food regulators.
