Real change one can believe in always comes from people outside the “system.” America has caved to special interests and profit first.

Two hundred million Americans are obese.

One in 36 children are autistic.

Thirty-eight million people have diabetes.

From 13%-27% of children have a chronic illness.

Many ingredients in our food are banned in Europe.

Thousands of foods contain the recently banned Red Dye No. 3.

Up to 70% of our diets are ultra-processed foods.

Most schools don’t teach a nutrition class.

We eat 100 pounds of sugar a year.

Nearly 40% of 18-year-olds have a mental health diagnosis.

Up to 34% of medical costs are for preventable conditions.

Fifty percent of TV ads are from Big Pharma.

Hundreds of hospitals provide irreversible sex change procedures.

Let’s all get behind the drastic changes President Donald Trump is making to our “bloated” federal government and health “un-care” system.
