You apparently do not understand the difference between causation and correlation. This is also why the execs were concerned -- because most Americans are the same.
1. Diagnosis rates. Because diagnosis criteria has changed.
2. Sure okay. Don't eat junk food. Why are you pitching a little fit about it?
3. Don't know enough about dietary guidelines to comment on their quality, but the guidelines are updated based on best available science.
4. If you'd actually listen to doctors and researchers, rather than what your echo chamber claims, you'd know they don't claim any of it is "perfectly safe", just that it's safer than the alternatives like getting covid, or running a high fever when pregnant.
FWIW, I do recall hearing that Trump ran with the announcement ahead of RFK's plan, so it's a good possibility that it got over-hyped.
But, the question was why is RFK involved? The answer, it appears, is that he is putting the blame on the government - including the FDA - for not doing its job to regulate industry. Food should contain food. Europe understands this, but America has been a little slow to catch on.
> the guidelines are updated based on best available science
This has almost never been true, given that the available science has long been funded by the ag and food industry. The most recent updates are good for policy documents, but worthless for the average person. He's been promoting a simplified version.

Actually, that claim has been thrown around, by both doctors in the public arena as well as the government, especially in tandem with the phrase "when used as directed".
All in all, I'm mostly interested to see if there's any actual evidence that comes out from discovery, or if this is all just a big PR stunt by the Texas AG.
