(Reuters) -The White House has appointed Calley Means, an ally of U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as a White House adviser working on Make America Healthy Again issues, a source familiar with the situation said on Tuesday.
Means’ role will be focused on food policy and addressing the influence of corporations on health and food policy, according to Bloomberg, which first reported the news.
Means, an entrepreneur and author, will assist the Make America Healthy Again Commission that President Donald Trump created via an executive order last month.
