President Trump said on Wednesday that he would name Casey Means, an educated doctor from Stanford who has become a criticism of business influence on medicine and health, as a general surgeon.
Dr. Means, an ally of the Secretary of Health, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., described being disillusioned by the medicine of the establishment. She became important last year after she and her brother, Calley Mean, a white house advisor and former lobbyist in the food industry, appeared in the program by Tucker Carlson.
What is his field of medicine?
Dr. Means, who trained as an Oto-Rhino-Laryngologist and head and neck surgeon, left a finishing surgery of his training to practice so-called functional medicine, which focuses on the fight against the deep causes of the disease. Last year, she published a regime and self-assistance book entitled “Good energy: the surprising link between metabolism and unlimited health”. Before that, it had been best known for its founding levels, a company that offers subscribers to portable glucose monitors to follow their health.
It focused on the prevalence of chronic diseases in the United States and has targeted obesity, diabetes and infertility, the problems it has attributed to the use of chemicals and drugs and sedentary lifestyles of Americans.
What did she say about vaccines?
Dr. Means echoed part of the skepticism of Mr. Kennedy's vaccines, calling on the new administration to study their “cumulative effects” and to weaken responsibility protections offered to vaccines as a means of encouraging them to develop new plans.
“There is more and more evidence that the total burden of the current calendar of extreme and growing vaccines leads to health reductions in vulnerable children”, it wrote In an October newsletter.
Infantile health experts are categorically opposed to the reduction of the list of recommended vaccinations, warning that such changes would trigger epidemics of fatal infectious diseases. And they noted that the government provides the security data used to authorize the vaccines and the security data generated after their use.
What did she say about food supply?
Dr. Means also put pressure for a concerted campaign to reduce policies adapted to companies related to the production and sale of food and medicine. For example, she supported serving more nutritious meals in public schools, investigating the use of chemicals in American foods, by putting warning labels on ultra-transformed foods, prohibiting pharmaceutical societies of advertising directly to patients on television and reducing the influence of industry between drug and food regulations.
“American health is destroyed,” she said during a Senate round table event on food and nutrition in September. “If the current trends continue, if the graphs continue in the way they leave, at best, we will face deep societal instability and a decrease in American competitiveness, and at worst, we will examine a collapse of health at the genocidal level.”
