Casey Means was just nominated for U.S. Surgeon General by President Trump.
Joe Rogan had her on his podcast where she exposed the corruption in our healthcare system...
& how it's destroying America.
Here are my top 8 takeaways:
1. America has some serious health problems
• 1 in 36 children has autism.
• 50% have type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetes.
• 74% of Americans are overweight or obese.
• 77% of young Americans can't serve in the military due to obesity or drug abuse.
Just to name a few.
Our health as a nation hasn't just been declining…
It's been collapsing completely.
2. Medical schools train doctors to siloed specialties.
They're taught to identify a condition then prescribe a pill or perform a surgery.
80% of medical schools don't require a SINGLE nutrition course.
Yet 90% of healthcare costs come from preventable lifestyle diseases.
3. We live in an estrogen-dominated environment that's feminizing our society.
There have been 8 billion metric tons of plastic produced since 1907.
As these break down, they act as xenoestrogens in our bodies, binding to estrogen receptors.
This is driving earlier puberty in girls & feminizing men.
4. You can't outwork a bad environment.
Ultra-processed foods now make up 67% of children's calories.
These products are literally designed by former tobacco scientists to bypass satiety signals & make you addicted.
It's literally weaponized food.
5. The shortcomings of medicine schools.
Dr. Means didn't learn a single minute about:
• Sleep
• Nutrition
• Circadian biology
In medical school.
But she did learn that walking 7,000 steps/day can slash your risk of obesity, diabetes, and Alzheimer's by 40-60%.
But the average American walks only 3,500 steps/day.
6. Our brains are being underpowered.
Dr. Means explains that the brain uses 20% of our body's energy despite being only 2% of our body weight.
And with 50% of Americans having pre-diabetes or diabetes…
Our brains are literally underpowered.
This energetic deficit explains the explosion in dementia & cognitive decline
7. Why she left her surgical residency
Surgeons are raised with the mantra "you eat what you kill."
Essentially, your salary depends on how many procedures you sell.
"When people come through the doors of the surgical department, they are going to get surgery whether they need it or not."
8. 80,000 untested chemicals are poisoning us
"We're exposed to 80,000 chemicals… most of them untested for human safety… the FDA and EPA are failing us," Means exposed.
These toxins in our food, water, and air drive cancer & infertility.
Dr. Means will work with RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary to implement the MAHA agenda.
Trump chose someone who understands the American healthcare industry profits when you're sicker longer.
Their business model depends on our illness.
She plans to change it.
We've been misled to think this is normal.
It's not.
Most of these chronic conditions were rare just 50 years ago.
The system isn't broken…
It's working exactly as designed to maximize profits at the expense of our health.
