The Left’s Abandonment Of Personal Health Drove RFK Jr. From The Democrat Party
The left's politicization of health and fitness drove would-be leftist voters into a dissident ecosystem receptive to Kennedy's message.
Cancer was once a disease that was mostly reserved for older populations, but that’s no longer the case. Diagnoses of the disease have skyrocketed among young people in the United States in the past 10 to 20 years.
Functional integrative physician and medical director of Cancer Center for Healing and Center for New Medicine Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy has the answer as to why that is.
“There’s a study that shows the increase in specifically colorectal cancer for young people,” Allie Beth Stuckey tells Connealy. “It used to be that was a type of cancer reserved for very old people, really, all types of cancer used to be more just an old-person problem. But that’s becoming less and less true.”
Connealy knows that much of the answer lies in what we consume.
“They’re not eating the right foods. They’re eating foods with lots of chemicals and toxins and seed oils, and you know, most of them are probably deficient in vitamins and minerals,” she explains.
But it’s not just seed oils and toxins.
“Parasites, all bugs, can contribute to the scenario of cancer,” Connealy explains. “And so, American doctors don’t think you can have parasites, because we have this clean, sterile, society, right?”
“But of course not,” she continues, explaining that commonly consumed food, like sushi, contains parasites.
“It’s something that, you know again, is one of the contributing causes to cancer. So, you know, cancer isn’t just one disturbance. It’s the perfect storm that’s creating this chaotic environment,” she says.
Unfortunately, doctors in the American medical system aren’t trained to address problems at the source.
“Doctors are taught a very indoctrinated version of medicine,” Connealy says. “In medical medical you’re taught how the body works, then the pharmacology that you use on the diagnosis you’re making, and then you may need surgery in some cases if it’s a diseased organ.”
While doctors aren’t taught to address the food patients are eating or the toxins they surround themselves with, they also aren’t taught to address stress levels.
“I’ve never met a patient where the doctor told the patient they need to change their eating and they need to address their stress,” she adds.

While most television shows now cater to the “woke” community, "South Park" is one of the few that have remained strong.
In its just-released “The End of Obesity'' episode, the creators mocked the new Ozempic weight-loss craze, as well as the face of the body positivity movement: Lizzo.
In one scene, Stan’s mother, Sharon Marsh, tells her friend that she had been feeling ashamed of herself because she’d been unable to secure Ozempic in order to lose weight.
“I’m telling you Sheila, these new drugs are pretty amazing. I was feeling so ashamed of myself, watching Randy go out and exercise all the time and not eating as much, but I just don’t have the same kind of willpower he has,” Sharon told her friend Sheila.
“There’s a whole new obesity drug for those of us who can’t afford Ozempic and Monjaro. I’ve controlled all my cravings to be thinner with Lizzo!” Sharon exclaims, before a pharmaceutical commercial for “Lizzo” begins.
“FDA approved ‘Lizzo’ makes you feel good about your weight, and it costs 90% less than Ozempic,” the commercial begins. “I've lowered my standards and my expectations,” Sharon exclaims happily.
“In case studies, 70% of patients on ‘Lizzo’ no longer cared how much they weigh. ‘Lizzo’ helps you eat everything you want and keep physical activity to a minimum. Some patients report constipation while listening to ‘Lizzo.’ Stop listening to ‘Lizzo’ if you experience suicidal thoughts,’” the commercial continues.
Lizzo responded to the show in a livestream. “I just feel like damn, I’m really that b*tch. I’m really that b*tch. I really showed the world how to love yourself and not give a f*** to the point where these men in Colorado know who I am and put it on their cartoon that’s been around for 25 years.”
Dave Rubin is thrilled, noting that "South Park" has been ahead on pretty much everything.
“Now, we have something going on with this body positivity movement and that somehow being fit is white supremacist or something like that,” Rubin says, telling athlete Riley Gaines that her generation now connects to the idea that “big is beautiful.”
“I think she took it as a compliment,” Gaines tells Rubin. “But yeah, we see the glorification daily of anything that is immoral, anything that is evil, anything that is unhealthy. We have seen this the past few years, but the mask is off now.”
