The Organic & Natural Health Association is urging the Senate to support the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). The organization emphasizes the need for HHS leadership to embody transparency, accessibility, traceability, and continuous quality improvement to drive significant healthcare reform.
In a statement, Karen Howard, CEO and executive director of Organic & Natural Health, highlighted the importance of addressing the root causes of chronic health diseases. She stressed the significance of evaluating all perspectives and implementing proactive health measures, including the power of food, supplementation, lifestyle changes, and consumer education.
Organic & Natural Health criticizes the current healthcare system for prioritizing disease treatment over prevention, resulting in a lack of recognition for cost savings from preventive measures. The organization points out limitations in programs like SNAP, which do not cover essential nutrients like vitamin D3 or medical food for disease management. Additionally, the organization calls for reforms in addressing health factors such as clean water, air quality, and pesticide use.
Howard further criticizes the financial model of the healthcare system, noting that prevention strategies are often overlooked in favor of disease management. She advocates for bold leadership committed to transparency and challenging the status quo to achieve real reform.
Organic & Natural Health also recognizes the intersection of the Ministries of Agriculture and HHS in shaping public health policy. The organization views Kennedy’s leadership as essential for promoting collaboration and addressing systemic challenges in healthcare and nutritional policy.
At a recent conference in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the organization hosted political strategist Dick Morris to discuss improving agricultural and food safety. Morris highlighted opportunities for the natural health industry under the new administration.
Moving forward, Organic & Natural Health plans to continue discussions through its “Table of Truth” salon series, promoting dialogue on transparency, supply chain integrity, environmental health, and public policy. The organization invites industry leaders, brands, and organizations to join the movement and support its mission.
