Supporters of the ‘Make America Healthy Again’ (MAHA) movement in the US are up in arms after the Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F Kennedy Jr, announced a push to encourage Americans to use wearable tech to monitor their health and wellbeing. In a statement, he said their use can help people to take responsibility for their own health as they see how their diet and lifestyle affects their health. It’s a laudable vision that every American will be using a wearable in four years time and thus empowered to manage their own health. However, the data is all too often used for stealth monitoring as well as being sold to the highest corporate bidder for commercial gain. At ANH, like the rest of the MAHA movement, we’re passionate about people finding ways of staying healthy and preventing diseases without the need for mainstream acute medicine or ‘disease management’ systems. This may well include the use of health tech where appropriate, as long as such data remains in the control of the individual, not the corporates. We await RFK Jr’s statement on how he’s going to address this issue and adequately protect citizens’ data.

Digital IDs could be closer than we think, not just in the UK but globally, as governments promote and justify their use under the headings of clamping down on mis- and disinformation and protecting children online. A recent article shows that 98 countries have announced plans to create national digital ID systems since 2015. The article includes the Web of Trust map from Swiss venture capital syndicate Key State Capital, which shows how such systems are interconnected globally. While the shift to digital IDs may be inevitable, as the World Economic Forum’s AI-driven ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution’ advances, it’s vital to ensure they remain optional and that personal data isn’t shared without individual consent
Alongside the thrust for digital IDs comes the push to introduce Central Bank Digital Currency’s (CBDCs). UK campaign organisation Big Brother Watch cautions against their wholesale introduction, setting out the very real impact they could have on our lives including government surveillance of what we buy, imposition of spending limits (and potentially carbon limits) as well as the risk to our personal identity, bank theft and fraud.

A new report from industry backed organisation, the UK Food and Drink Federation (FDF), celebrates how the food industry has made its food products ‘healthier’ by reducing, salt, sugar and calories on a range of processed and highly processed food items. The report also calls for additional government support and funding for the industry as it fights to maintain its grip on our food supplies regardless of the health implication of many of its products.

For decades we’ve been told that genetically engineered crops, animals, bacteria and other organisms are the only ways to solve our food and farming problems. Despite all the promises falling on barren ground, the industry continues to shift its messaging as it ducks and dives to unleash unregulated gene edited organisms into the environment, with little or no safety checks. A new project from Save Our Seeds along with GMWatch and Beyond GM, GMO Promises, is an evidence-based “living database” that tracks the history, promises, successes and failures of GMOs – both current and long-forgotten.

Being physically active as we age can reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. A new study, published in The Journal of Prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease, analysed data from more than 13,000 survey participants, finding the more active individuals are, the lower their risk of developing Alzheimer’s.

The risks of covid ‘vaccines’ to pregnant women is exposed in a new preprint paper using data from Israel between March 2016 and February 2022. The authors of the paper found that a single dose and a third dose of a covid mRNA jab were associated with a higher-than-expected number of pregnancy losses compared to women receiving a flu jab. The lead author of the paper, Josh Geutzkow, discusses the paper and it’s outcomes on his Substack.
