I guess we should start a running list of all the absurd ways in which politics is restricting the public's ability to make evidence-based health decisions.

Latest ex: LA halts all flu, mpox & C19 vaccination comms from one of their most trusted sources of health info: Public health departments
Louisiana forbids public health workers from promoting COVID, flu and mpox shots
An NPR investigation found Louisiana health officials told staff to stop promoting vaccines for COVID, flu and mpox, holding flu shot events or otherwise encouraging the public to get those vaccines.

Big news for beans🌱

As part of the '25 US Dietary Advisory Committee, we recommended putting beans, peas, & lentils at the top of MyPlate's protein section instead of meat.

Why? They have protein, fiber, and no saturated fat.

Small swap, big impact!
