Did RFK Jr really drink fish medicine? He definitely has weird ideas about making America healthy again' | Arwa Mahdawi
Briefly

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sparked controversy after a video of him seemingly consuming methylene blue on an airplane went viral. While this compound is used in fish medicine and has some FDA-approved human applications, its off-label use has garnered attention in wellness circles. Experts warn against self-medicating with it due to potential adverse effects. Kennedy's unconventional views on health, particularly as a prominent anti-vaxxer, raise concerns about his influence, especially as he positions himself for a significant role in health policy.
While some studies show methylene blue may help with mental clarity and longevity, self-medicating is a bad idea due to possible drug interactions and side effects.
RFK Jr's wellness opinions might be his own business, but he's approaching a major role that could influence public health policy with his controversial ideas.
