The US tops developed nations in obesity, diabetes, and child illness, prompting MAHA leaders to demand urgent public health reform beyond costly care.
United States: Gary Brecka is a biohacker biologist and longevity expert, and the creator of the Ultimate Human podcast and adviser to the movement Make America Healthy Again, led by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“I’m very committed to the whole MAHA agenda, very supportive of Bobby Kennedy’s agenda and President Trump’s agenda to make America healthy again,” Brecka stated.

In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, Brecka explained why America is lagging behind in health despite the amount of spending on the healthcare sector in the US.
“We’ve become the sickest, fattest, most disease-ridden nation in the world. And we are the largest spender on healthcare worldwide. So I’m committed to having whatever influence I can on public policy so that our children have a brighter future than we do,” as Brecka noted.

Brecka was a 20-year-long mortality researcher for big life insurance firms. He exited that industry 10 years ago, and ever since then, he has been serving the people with his experience to make them healthier.
Moreover, Brecka noted that he “started a chain of functional medicine clinics, which became one of the largest functional medicine clinics in the country,” Fox News reported.
“Treated hundreds of thousands of patients, mainly with lifestyle medicine, food, movement, reconnecting with nature, reconnecting with each other, targeted supplementation rather than for just supplementing for the sake of supplementing,” he maintained.
He has equally been appointed as a co-chairman of the MAHA action committee. As most people claim that America is the best country in the world, Brecka has set out to illustrate how America is failing in regard to health.
“We spend nearly USD 5 trillion a year on healthcare. And we lead the world in six things: morbid obesity, type two diabetes, multiple chronic diseases in a single biome, infant mortality, and maternal mortality. And the rates of autism are exploding from one in 10,000 to one in 34 children. Learning disabilities are on the rise, with the highest rates of childhood cancer and high rates of childhood obesity. And so something has to change,” Becka continued.
As the studies indicate, America tops in such conditions among the developed economies, such as AJMC, The Cancer Atlas, and The Lancet, NCD-RisC (2024), Health Action Research, and the OECD.
