Dr. Marc Siegel, a Senior Medical Analyst at Fox News and an expert from NYU Health, corroborates Kennedy's assertions, claiming that the overwhelming amount of processed food in American diets contributes substantially to addiction-like behaviors. These foods are specifically designed to appeal to taste buds and often feature extremely high levels of sugar and artificial colors to attract consumers, especially children. Siegel draws attention to the broader health implications, stating that the obesity epidemic is not only tied to physical ailments but also intensifies mental health struggles, creating a vicious cycle of health degradation.
