• MAHA Report Reveals Major Changes to Food, Health + Healthcare | White House Special

  253: In this special episode recorded live from the White House, I sit down with some of the most influential voices shaping the future of health in America to discuss the newly released Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Report. Guests include Dr. Oz, Kyle Diamantas, Vani Hari, Anthony Geisler, Brigham Buhler, and Max Lugavere. We dive into key topics like food policy, GRAS regulations, Medicaid and SNAP reform, PBMs, Alzheimer’s research, and the push for preventative care, movement, and accountability in federal health initiatives. This is a behind-the-scenes look at how the MAHA coalition is working to make real change—and what it means for your health. Topics Discussed:  What is the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Report, and how does it aim to transform public health policy? How is the FDA planning to update GRAS regulations and food safety standards under the MAHA initiative? What changes are being proposed for Medicaid, Medicare, and SNAP benefits to support preventative health care? Why are PBMs (pharmacy benefit managers) under scrutiny, and how is the MAHA movement addressing prescription drug pricing? What are the latest findings on Alzheimer’s disease research, and how is fraudulent science being addressed in national policy?
