This is why you shouldn't touch any new drugs and any produce from America. Ever since Trump it's actually scary to use now unregulated American products.
Any pictures of this spliced with Trump and his fast food yet
RFK Jr's FDA chief should probably go get some potty training instead of just spewing his shit for the world to see.

You wish.
So what are they trying to hide? That putin trashed donald lately? The bonds market going bad? That the life saving magic tariffs got rolled back?
Cooking classes fixes hormones
RFK is enacting Aktion 74 as part of the construction of the american reich.
Wouldn't they still need insulin though? Even if in lesser quantities.
Not against state funded mandatory cooking classes though if it'll help people eat healthier alongside insulin, though.
Type I and II diabetes (mellitus) are different diseases and insulin use isn’t simple enough that diet recommendations (which every diagnosed diabetic probably already knows) are a magical missing piece for RFK Jr.
People with type I are deficient in insulin and it’s part of treating the disease right away. Insulin is used for people with type II, who aren’t deficient but can’t use insulin well, later in the disease progression if other treatments are no longer effective.
If a person with type II diabetes is on insulin, diet was probably treatment number one and has probably already failed or isn’t effective enough.
