Speaker 0 argues that the food supply is treated with a chemical called folic acid, which is not a natural vitamin and did not exist until the 1980s. According to the speaker, folic acid is not found anywhere on the surface of the earth, whereas folate does exist in nature. The speaker notes that during pregnancy, women are told to take high doses of folic acid, and questions why a man-made chemical that didn’t exist until the eighties is deemed absolutely necessary for a healthy pregnancy. The comparison is made between folate and methylfolate, implying a distinction between natural forms and synthetic forms. The speaker also states that in the United States, the entire grain supply—flour, rice, bread, pasta, grains of any kind, and cereals—is required to be sprayed with folic acid, although this is not openly labeled as such. Instead, it is described as fortified or enriched foods. The speaker claims that these fortified or enriched nutrients are fed to children, and asserts that half of the population has a gene mutation that prevents them from processing folic acid effectively. The consequence, according to the speaker, is that when a person cannot process a high amount of something introduced into the body, it becomes dysfunctional. The speaker then connects this to a broader societal issue, describing a common scenario: a child goes to school, comes home with a phone call reporting inattention and poor ability to follow directions, and the ensuing medical response is the prescription of stimulants such as Adderall or Ritalin. The speaker characterizes this as a solution that uses amphetamines to accelerate the central nervous system to match the pace of a racing mind, rather than addressing underlying factors. Ultimately, the speaker presents a proposed solution: remove folic acid, fortified, and enriched nutrients from the diet, and observe changes in behavior. The underlying claim is that eliminating these synthetic nutrients would calm behavior and improve function, implying that the current approach relies on artificial chemistry rather than natural nutrition.

The speaker met with major food processors and producers and addressed food dyes, claiming they are not used in other countries and are associated with diseases like cancer, behavioral issues, and neurological problems like ADHD. The speaker stated that many companies produce the same products with vegetable dyes in Canada, Mexico, and Europe. The speaker asked the companies to make the same products for the US market. According to the speaker, the CEO of Pepsi, which owns Doritos, said consumers like Doritos to be very red, and they have not yet found a vegetable dye that matches, but they are working on it. The speaker gave the companies two years to remove the dyes. The speaker also met with Tyson's Foods, who said they are down to one dye, a caramel used in some meat products, and are working on removing it quickly.

Americans are dying younger than people in comparable countries, a trend that started in the 1990s with a rise in chronic diseases. A major cause is our diet, where harmful substances are government-approved and end up in our food. Take yellow dye number five, or tartrazine, found in many foods, including those marketed to children as healthy choices. Originally derived from toxic coal tar, it's now made from petroleum and linked to tumors, asthma, and neurological issues. While other countries restrict it, the U.S. allows it in everything from snacks to vitamins. Removing such chemicals would lead to immediate health benefits: fewer sick days, better focus, less anxiety, and longer lives. While some progress has been made, with eight chemical additives banned in the past sixteen years, more needs to be done to stop the poisoning of American children and make America healthy again.

The speaker says they want dyes removed from food, noting that products like Froot Loops contain dyes in the US but not in Canada or Europe. They are launching a review of Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) standards, which were adopted in 1958 to avoid testing common foods like flour, dairy, and eggs. The speaker claims industry took advantage of GRAS to add chemicals to food without review, resulting in 10,000 ingredients in US food compared to 400 in Europe. They state the US has the worst chronic disease burden globally. The plan is to eliminate GRAS standards for new products, review old ingredients for safety, and encourage companies to remove harmful ingredients.

In the US, Skittles contain 11 ingredients, including harmful substances like dimethylpolysiloxane and artificial dyes, while the UK version has only 3 ingredients and optional salt. The US version includes 10 artificial dyes and titanium dioxide, banned in Europe for its potential DNA damage and links to cancer. Gatorade in the US uses red 40 and caramel color, whereas Germany opts for natural colors from carrots and sweet potatoes. Doritos in the US contain multiple artificial dyes and MSG, while the UK version does not. General Mills recently launched a dye-free version of Trix in Australia, highlighting the disparity in food safety standards. This motivates the push for equal treatment of American consumers by food companies.

In the 1980s, there were 700 approved food ingredients in America, compared to the current 10,000. Europe still uses approximately 700 ingredients. The speaker questions why American factories use 10,001 ingredients for American products, while using a different set of ingredients for the same products, such as Froot Loops, sold in Canada. The number of ingredients is presented as one component of a larger issue.

Cereal is claimed to be the worst way to start the day, negatively impacting brain function, gut function, and immune health. Cereal companies allegedly pay off nutrition lobbies to promote cereal over eggs, falsely claiming eggs are bad for you, while they are actually nature's multivitamin. Cereal is marketed by paying athletes and using cartoon characters to target children. The speaker claims that cereal contains artificial food dyes and preservatives that are banned in other countries but allowed in the United States due to lobbying. The speaker urges people to stop eating cereal and eat something healthy like eggs instead.

United States Froot Loops, Canadian Froot Loops. The difference here is obvious. These Froot Loops contain artificial synthetic food dyes. Red 40, Yellow five, Yellow six and Blue one. All of these food dyes have been linked to behavioral issues in kids, hyperactivity and attention deficit symptoms. This is what Canadian Froot Loops looks like, colored with more natural dyes. Kellogg's makes both of these products. There's no reason that Kellogg's couldn't sell this type of Froot Loops without these artificial synthetic dyes, which are pretty clearly associated with all kinds of behavioral issues and potential allergies in kids with asthma in The United States. But they don't. They sell us these Froot Loops, the Hyper Neon Froot Loops that are very addictive and very desirable to your kids. This is a big reason that we're fat sick and unhealthy in The United States.

The speaker asks if there's a plan to address food additives from the top down, rather than state by state. The other speaker says one of the first groups they met with after being sworn in was major food processors and producers. The meeting went very well, and the speaker believes these companies see the "writing on the wall." Food dyes are considered the most egregious additives because they aren't used in other countries and are associated with cancers, behavioral issues, and neurological diseases like ADHD. The speaker claims these companies often make the same products with vegetable dyes in Canada, Mexico, and Europe.

America has an addiction crisis related to food, which is profitable for big food companies whose objective is to create cheap, addictive food. Almost every chronic condition shortening American lives is tied to food. Ultra-processed food makes up 70% of our diet and is weaponized with sugar, seed oils, and processed grains. The speaker claims the food market is rigged, and while working for the food industry, they helped pay off regulators, the media, lawmakers, and researchers to promote ultra-processed food as healthy. Coca-Cola allegedly pays organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics. The food industry is purportedly taking away humans' innate sense of what's good for them, hiring scientists from tobacco companies to shift them over to food science. Ultra-processed food is a science experiment that hijacks our evolutionary biology, making food addictive and normalized.

On February 14th, President Trump signed the MAHA order to create a commission. The commission has 100 days to put out a report and another 60 days for a list of deliverables to end the problem. A top concern is the 10,000 ingredients in US food, compared to only 400 in Europe, with many US ingredients banned in Europe. The US will get rid of petroleum-based synthetic dyes, switching to vegetable dyes like Canada and Europe. Froot Loops in Canada use vegetable dyes, unlike the chemically dyed US version. Food processors use cheaper, more vibrant chemical dyes in the US because they appeal more to kids, while Canada prohibits them. Softeners are added to US food so people chew less. Because the brain measures chewing to determine fullness, people can eat more without feeling full. These chemicals are designed to make people insatiable. Pesticides and other residues in food are designed to kill plants and animals, and are harmful to humans.

US versions of Skittles, Froot Loops, and M&M's contain high-risk additives not found in their European counterparts. Skittles in the US contain titanium dioxide, which is banned in Europe. Froot Loops in the US contain yellow six lake, red 40, blue one, and butylated hydroxytoluene, which are not in the European version. US M&M's have yellow five lake, yellow six lake, and Red 40 Lake, which the European version does not. The EU has stricter regulations than the US, leading to these ingredient differences. A California bill aims to ban harmful substances, potentially leading companies to reformulate products without ingredients like titanium dioxide and red dye three.

The speaker questions why the American version of Froot Loops contains artificial dyes and BHT, while the Canadian version does not. The Canadian version is made in the US with a different formulation, lacking red 40, yellow five, yellow six, and blue one. The speaker suggests two reasons for this discrepancy. First, natural food colorings are more expensive than artificial dyes derived from petroleum. Second, manufacturers acknowledge that natural food colorings are less bright and therefore less appealing to children.

The US has twice as many toxic chemicals in the same products compared to other high-income countries. For example, US Quaker Oats, Mountain Dew, Heinz ketchup, and Doritos contain ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, yellow 5, brominated vegetable oil, and artificial colors, which are absent in their UK counterparts. The reason for this is that the same shareholders own the food and healthcare industries. Top shareholders of companies like Pepsi and Kellogg's also have major stakes in the healthcare industry. This creates a system where the population is poisoned through food, leading to increased healthcare needs and financial dependence, especially since the US spends the most on healthcare without universal coverage. These same entities also own major media outlets like Sony, Disney, CNN, Comcast, PBS, and Fox, enabling further manipulation of consumer behavior.

On February 14th, President Trump signed an executive order to create a MAHA commission, with a report due in 100 days followed by deliverables in 60 days to end related issues. A top concern is the 10,000 ingredients in American food, compared to Europe's 400, with many U.S. ingredients banned in Europe. The speaker claims the commission will get rid of all petroleum-based synthetic dyes, noting Froot Loops in Canada use vegetable dyes, unlike the chemically dyed U.S. version. The speaker alleges that tobacco companies, after anticipating litigation, diversified into food and employed scientists to make food addictive by adding sugar, sodium, and artificial flavors that mimic natural flavors without providing nutrients. These scientists also added softeners to food, reducing chewing and tricking the brain into thinking the body hasn't eaten enough. The speaker asserts that pesticides and chemical residues in food are designed to kill plants and animals, and that humans are "literally eating poison."

Many popular sodas and snacks in America are sweetened with high fructose corn syrup, while the same products in the UK often use real sugar. These products include Coca-Cola, fruit snacks, and ketchup. High fructose corn syrup is used because it is cheaper and sweeter than cane sugar, allowing companies to use less of it. It is also highly addictive, which encourages repeat purchases. High fructose corn syrup and corn syrup affect the brain similarly to drugs or opioids. The speaker advises consumers to read ingredients and avoid high fructose corn syrup.

Americans are dying earlier than people in comparable countries, and chronic diseases are on the rise. A big part of the problem is the U.S. diet, where the government approves poisons in food that end up in every supermarket aisle. For example, the harmful yellow dye tartrazine (Yellow Dye #5), originally made from coal tar, is found in many foods, including those considered healthy, like popcorn, mac and cheese, and even vitamins. Tartrazine is linked to tumors, asthma, developmental delays, neurological damage, ADD/ADHD, hormone disruption, gene damage, anxiety, depression, and intestinal injuries. Other countries restrict or require warning labels for tartrazine. Tartrazine is just one of at least a hundred chemical poisons allowed in children's food. The combined effects of these chemicals have never been studied. Removing these chemicals could lead to immediate health improvements. The government has banned eight chemical additives that cause similar conditions, all under President Trump. The speaker claims that Democrats have allowed these poisons to remain in food, benefiting big food, big ag, and big pharma. The speaker and President Trump plan to stop the mass poisoning of American children and make America healthy again.

Folic acid, a man-made chemical created in a laboratory, is not a natural vitamin B9 and does not exist in nature, unlike folate. Pregnant women are advised to take high doses of folic acid. In the United States, the entire grain supply, including flour, rice, bread, pasta, and cereals, is sprayed with folic acid through fortification or enrichment. According to the speaker, half the population has a gene mutation preventing them from processing folic acid, leading to dysfunction. The speaker suggests that this may cause behavioral issues in children, such as difficulty paying attention and following directions, which are often treated with drugs like Adderall or Ritalin. The speaker proposes removing folic acid from children's diets to improve their behavior, rather than medicating them.

Artificial food dyes are debated. Colorants from fruit are used in the Canadian version of a product, which is less bright than the version with artificial dyes. Food companies like Kellogg argue children prefer the brighter, artificially dyed version. The speaker equates this preference to a preference for cocaine over sugar, implying that children's preference does not justify the use of artificial dyes.

The attorney general announced an investigation into Kellogg's for advertising their product as healthy while using petroleum crude tar, which requires a warning label in Europe due to concerns that artificial food dyes harm children's brains. There are currently seven million children in the US diagnosed with ADHD. Kellogg's also uses the preservative BHT, which is linked to cancer and endocrine disruption. These ingredients have been removed from Kellogg's products sold in Europe, Canada, Australia, India, and Korea. The demand is for big food companies to serve the healthier versions already produced for other countries. The attorney general in Texas is holding one of the major food companies accountable, with the expectation that many other states will follow suit.
