0:00.0 | Welcome to Wellness on Mass. I'm Dr. Nicole Sapphire and this is your weekly rundown. |
0:05.6 | We are tackling two big topics. First, the second Make America Healthy Again or Maha report is due out any day now. |
0:13.4 | And there's a lot of chatter about what it might say because, well, let's be honest. The last one, while it contained a lot of good information, it focused a lot on childhood obesity and chronic illness when it came to our kids. |
0:27.9 | There were a lot of flaws in this report. In fact, it was pretty embarrassing. |
0:31.7 | There were fake citations. A lot of it seemed AI generated. Bottom line, it would not pass the sniff test when it came to |
0:40.1 | academics, when it comes to any sort of publishing. I was very excited for this first report to come |
0:46.0 | out because finally we were talking about something that needs to be addressed. It really is a |
0:51.0 | medical emergency, the health of our kids. But the report itself, unfortunately, was a little embarrassing from medical standards. |
0:58.1 | So I am hoping that they will pay a little bit more attention in detail in this next report. |

1:21.6 | I think we're going to see some recommendations for the whole federal food policy. |
1:25.9 | Remember decades ago when they came out with the food pyramid, |
1:29.8 | you know, fruits, vegetables, grains, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. We all had those pictures of food |
1:34.4 | pyramids in schools. I have a feeling that they are going to revamp that because the reality is |
1:39.9 | that food pyramid is part of the reason we are where we are today with all of our illness, |
1:45.5 | because at the bottom, it had all of the whole grains and breads and carbohydrates. |
1:51.6 | And sure, while maybe if we live in the blue zones all across the world where it is pure bread, |
1:57.3 | someone is back in the back rolling out the dough and not the ultra-process crap that we consume |
2:03.7 | on a daily basis here in the United States, then maybe it would have been okay. But the reality is |
