The MAHA Report, aligned with the Make American Healthy Again movement, critiques children's health in America. Drafted by a prominent commission, it cites poor diet (especially ultra-processed foods), environmental chemicals, inactivity, and over-medicalization as key contributors to deteriorating health. Nearly 70% of children's diets consist of ultra-processed foods, posing significant health risks. The report has spurred both praise for its scientific backing and criticism regarding its unproven claims, reflecting ongoing debates in health policy and childhood nutrition.
The report outlines four main drivers of poor health in children: poor diet, environmental chemicals, lack of physical activity, and over-medicalization.
Nearly 70% of an American child's caloric intake comes from ultra-processed foods, which often contain high levels of added sugar and sodium.
