I am not a doctor, but I have been blessed with the time and interest to explore alternative health over the years. I can’t speak for the doctors writing the recent column, “Robert Kennedy’s nomination to head HHS puts the health of Americans at risk” in the Bangor Daily News, but I can well imagine that many doctors simply don’t have the time to read or understand health recommendations outside those of their education and official recommendations. So invariably, they may end up “using a set of hammers to drive things that are not nails,” so to speak.
I think there is a vast amount of science, experience and study showing that the official stance on vaccines, raw milk and fluoride, for instance, are wrong. Speaking for raw milk, it has been my observation that financial interests have vilified it to gain control of the food supply chain by shipping, pasteurizing and often adulterating milk. I believe that raw milk drinkers are generally healthier.
As I see it, raw milk farmers and consumers have essentially wandered off the plantation and pose a threat to the official bizarre and unhealthy food system being foisted on us. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. makes the plantation owners nervous.
