Encore: Food: The Root Causes of Our Healthcare, Economic and Social Crises with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

You’ve probably heard a lot about Robert F. Kennedy Jr., but beyond
social media sound bites, do you really know where he stands on the
issues shaping America’s health? Recorded last year when Kennedy
was a presidential candidate, this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show
provides a deep dive into his vision for improving the well-being
of Americans. A vision Kennedy could put into action if confirmed
as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Kennedy is the founder
of the Waterkeeper Alliance, the world’s largest clean water
advocacy group, and served as its longtime chairman and attorney.
He also founded the Children’s Health Defense and led efforts to
address chronic disease and toxic exposures. As a litigator, he was
part of the team that successfully prosecuted Monsanto for
glyphosate’s link to cancer. Tune in to explore Kennedy’s stance on
tackling chronic disease, promoting regenerative farming, and
improving the quality of the water we drink and the air we breathe.
