Fantastic. We are so grateful Many many thanks to you all.

Suzy Cue's avatar

Grateful for what, exactly?

Sonia Nordenson's avatar

For a great idea being actualized on everyone’s behalf. (Even yours.)

Suzy Cue's avatar

Well, I think we should decide things for ourselves. My point is that I don’t need the government to parent me. That never goes well. I don’t need government agencies to tell me how to eat, for ‘my behalf’.

Sonia Nordenson's avatar

Okay. Many others do, though.

My Monday morning quarterbacking on this great gut punch: https://aynsrants.substack.com/p/defense-wins-champions-offense-wins

A win.

As a member of the “Last of the Boomers Club”, I am attempting to undo a lifetime of chemical consumption… I pray some of these biological damages are reversible.

It’s difficult to overestimate the importance of the MAHA project, but probably impacts the lives of every individual within our borders… every day. Go Bobby go!!!

( and Teams! )

Kevin, Keep rowing forward!

Sconnie's avatar

Kevin, you were lied to for many years, told that ultra-processed foods were healthy. The indoctrination began when you were very young. Go easy on yourself … but hard on the liars.

Thank you, Mike! Thank you, MAHA! Our bodies are designed to operate and thrive on real food, in as close to its natural state as possible (i.e. minimal processing).

The Green Wizard's avatar

And our minds? Because that's what an ultra-processed message looks like.

Go back to your Happy Meal, troll.

I commend Mike Tyson for his support of MAHAs efforts and sorry to hear that he too has been a victim of the industrial corporations who have been poisoning our food supplies now for decades. He will be a good role model for many. Obesity is only one among many side effects and chronic illnesses that are rampant in our country because of what we have been deliberately and callously exposed to and should be considered as crimes against humanity and treated as such starting w the FDA and EPA. Add Big Mike's abomination of school lunches in there.

Dear Cathleen, Your TDS is obvious, and ignores the damage done to largest group of Americans who actually waste their limited resources on poison …

Yours is not an ignorant comment, rather a death sentence to the poorest people in America.

“Anything that spews invective and hatred towards MAGA!”

Sick fu**

Dear Kevin, only because I LOVE your response to TDS Cathleen I am asking you to repost it. If you Reply directly to her comment, she will be more certain to read your response. Thanks.

Chris Banitch's avatar

Bravo to Tyson for doing this PSA Obesity might be the #1 problem the US population has

Sconnie's avatar

Love that ad, and the whole MAHA movement!

JD Smith's avatar

Just read articles about cinnamon, supposedly good for us! Testing has showed top 15 brands contaminated with lead, arsenic,cadium and glycophosphates , some in excess of acceptable limits. These are the things we hope MAHA can fix. We should not be poisoned by our food companies for their profit!

The Green Wizard's avatar

Did you think of not making it look like propaganda?

Valerie Grimes, Hypnotist's avatar

Propaganda works. Why we all thinking and do what we do and think

Keeping a critical mind and an open mind while watching ads is our responsibility. We can decide for ourselves whether to buy into the message or not.

Koo's avatar

Wow! Awesome!Thank you!

Suzy Cue's avatar

MAHA Center Inc? What the hell is this? Everything in this post is ridiculous. Yeah, people need some inane ads with Mike Tyson in order to eat healthy? What a bunch of bunk.

Jef Spalding's avatar

MAHA is more about encouraging people to consciously make decisions. How else can you change a broken food system without using its own tools to convey the truth about processed foods?

You may not like Mike Tyson, but he is a stellar example that you don't have to have a college degree to be intelligent

Suzy Cue's avatar

I never gave an opinion about Mike Tyson. Don’t put words in my mouth. I have no opinion of him (I’ve never met him). I don’t approve of celebrities advising me on how to live my life. I think it’s odd, paying a celebrity to make an ad for how I should eat.

It's even stranger given that Bobby has destroyed the Nutrition and Metabolism division at NIH, pushing out their two world-renowned researches (and their entire labs).

He's enthusiastically helped to eliminate federal funding for SNAP and for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), which helps pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, infants and children under age 5. WIC provides:

Monthly food benefits for milk, eggs, fruits and vegetables, baby food and infant formula, peanut butter, whole grains, etc.

Nutrition education and counseling

Breastfeeding support

Health care referrals (prenatal care, pediatric care, etc.)

I could keep listing these. But keep celebrating this $7-million ad spend, as if it means anything more than the siphoning off of funds to cronies (Rattner, Tyson and others).

Jef Spalding's avatar

Never tried to put words in your mouth. I said you MAY not like MT, but at least he's smart enough to realize what goes into your body affects your health. And as I also stated, celebrities have been used to promote poor health habits funded by Mega corporations only interested in profit for decades.. So why not use a celebrity to promote something positive, like good health habits 🤔

Polly Frost's avatar

Cathleen, what is your idea of how to help Americans change the way they eat? Just spewing your hatred is really tiresome for me and I’m sure others. I’m also sure your own psyche and body could stand a more positive approach from you as well.

TeeJae's avatar

"Cathleen" gives the appearance of a paid troll.

Polly Frost's avatar

Paid trolls sit on their butts and eat too much processed information.

john galt's avatar

Or a morbidly obese person angered by what she has become from stuffing her mouth with junk food.

JD Smith's avatar

Better cut back on the hatoiraid!

Rebecca's avatar

Coming from a known and self admitted abuser of women and animals- he can keep his opinions to himself. While I don’t disagree with the sentiment the message will be more impactful when non-processed food is more affordable. In the meantime I don’t need rhetoric from Tyson or Drug Addled RFkJr. And I certainly don’t need lectured on food choices by MAHA who should be screaming thru the roof to keep our children physically and mentally healthy from sexual predators.

Alice Ball's avatar

MAHA is one of the most important elements of MAGA. Change the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse (Big Ag, Big Food, Big Pharma, Big Chemical) and you can turn around the health of Americans in short order. KEEP ON GOING!!

Gonna be a long slog to wean folks, especially young ones, off of the harmful eating habits that are so deeply ingrained. After all, getting people to eat healthy is a direct attack on the profits of the food industry and their various means to hook customers. Not sure the good folks can pull it off, but God bless them for trying and we all need to get behind the effort.
