Several polls show Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is among the most popular cabinet secretaries in the second term Trump White House.

The Donald J. Trump administration made incredible strides in 2025 in its effort to Make America Healthy Again.

Approximately 35% of the American food industry committed to eliminating the use of artificial dyes. This includes Hershey, Consumer Brands, and dozens of ice cream companies. These companies represent more than 90% of the ice cream volume sold in the U.S.

The Department of Health and Human Services revived its Task Force on Safer Childhood Vaccines.

President Trump and U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. understand that America’s healthcare system has largely been focused on treating chronic illnesses. It has focused little on preventing them. This approach leads to a growing health crisis. This crisis has serious economic and national security consequences.

Within weeks of taking office, President Trump established the Make America Healthy Again Commission, tasked with investigating and addressing the root causes of America’s escalating health crisis, with an initial focus on childhood chronic diseases.

U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins signed a waiver to restrict soda and energy drinks from food stamps in Nebraska. This ensures that American taxpayer funds are not used to subsidize unhealthy beverages.

Kennedy announced a plan to phase out all petroleum-based dyes from the country’s food supply by the end of 2026. This includes dyes like Red 40, Yellow 5, and Blue 1 that have been linked to negative health outcomes in children.

The Department of Health and Human Services has removed COVID-19 vaccines from the list of shots recommended for healthy children. It has also removed them for pregnant women.

The Trump Administration is making a historic effort to lower the costs of prescription drugs for Americans. On May 12, 2025, Trump announced a new policy for the United States. It is a “most favored nation” policy. Drug manufacturers must match the lowest prices of other countries. This ensures that Americans are being charged fair prices when it comes to prescription drugs.

On April 15, 2025, he signed an executive order that would standardize Medicare payments for prescription drugs, which can lower prices as much as 60%.
