Show Notes
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F Kennedy Junior and EPA head Lee Zeldin are waging war on microplastics, tiny plastic pieces that accumulate in the environment and human bodies. The EPA added microplastics and pharmaceuticals to its contaminant candidate list, while Kennedy launched the STOMP program to track these particles in human bodies and tap water. Kennedy emphasized the need to identify harmful plastics and replace them with safer options, as microplastics have been linked to heart attacks, strokes, and brain diseases. Zeldin advocates for bipartisan transparency and gold-standard research to build trust. Both are committed to the Make America Healthy Again push.
