Dr. Drew Pinsky is a fan of President-elect Donald Trump’s pick of Robert F. Kennedy to head as Secretary of Health and Human Services.
He spoke to Fox News host Jesee Watters who said that what Americans want “to look hot, skinny, and healthy.”
“One hundred percent. I don’t know where the hot part came in there so much, but indeed, that would be a great byproduct, if indeed that actually happens,” the doctor said during a Tuesday evening interview.
“But thank you to Cory Booker, thank you to Bill Maher. Casey Means is exactly correct. The numbers speak for themselves. I saw really — and thank you even to “The New York Times” for climbing on board. We’ll see how long they stay with the game. That remains to be seen yet,” he said.
“The really interesting thing, I saw some people freaking out about that picture you showed with the team on Trump won there with the all the McDonald’s hamburgers. And look, the worst thing about McDonald’s is they fry their foods in the seed oils. If they can switch over to tallow, a good proportion of their problem would go away,” Pinsky added.
“Plus, you can make healthy choices at McDonald’s, but people went absolutely berserk that poor Bobby Kennedy was seen with a McDonald’s hamburger. He is not about telling you how to eat. He’s trying to help make the food supply more healthy,” he said.
“The fact is, Bill said McDonald’s tastes great. It tastes good. And people freaked out that he said that. They do taste great. That is what these food companies do. They’ve used tobacco scientists, tobacco marketers, tobacco lobbyists to addict us to their food so the first order of business is to realize you have an enemy, a very powerful enemy, coming at you, and to choose more wisely the food you eat, not that you can’t eat widely and eat a lot of things, and eat McDonald’s once in a while, but first, start by taking seed oils out, start by eating more protein. Start by taking out some carbohydrates, eating proper healthy fats, getting rid of the seed oils, as I said, and it can make a huge difference right away,” Pinsky continued.
“This is a real opportunity, and the fact that anybody is fighting this is bizarre. Look, ultimately, Bobby Kennedy wants to untangle the corruption. He is an attorney who is an expert in taking big corporations, examining them, and taking out the corrupting influences,” he said.
