STRONG and VITAL No 5

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Switzerland Both for business and private matters, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was already traveling in Switzerland back in 2002, where he also met his later training partner and friend, Franco Carlotto.

“It is not in the interest of the pharmaceutical industry for people to stay healthy.” Kennedy often says. „A healthy person is not a profitable customer.“ He calls for a fundamental restructuring of healthcare toward a preventive model, focused on nutrition, exer cise, and holistic well-being. His personal commit ment to fitness and his knowledge about the benefits of strength training and myokines reinforce this vision. Myokines: The Key to Long-Term Health The science of myokines shows how vital exer cise is for health. These small messenger mole cules, released during training, can reduce inflam mation, strengthen the immune system, and even support brain health. They function like an inter nal “medicine cabinet” activated by movement. Myokines play an essential role in regula ting metabolism, immune function, and cel lular health. Studies show they can help pre vent chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardio vascular problems, and even certain cancers. Kennedy sees in this mechanism a natural alternative to many drugs that often treat only symptoms instead of addressing the root causes of illness. By training regularly himself and highlighting the benefits of mus cle exercise in his speeches and interviews, he shows how simple it can be to unlock this “inner pharmacy.”

Franco Carlotto (born in 1973) is a fitness expert, coach, and author who has been living in Los Angeles for many years. He trains, among other places, at Gold’s Gym in Venice Robert Kennedy was in Switzerland during the heated Covid period of November 2021 and said:

At his appearance in Bern, Robert Kennedy said that he stands in solidarity with us Swiss people, seeing himself as a Bernese, a Swiss, a Grison, a Ticinese, and a Romand. He stressed that Swiss men and women are respon sible citizens who, in the referendum of November 28, 2021, could freely decide on their own future. His uncle, the 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, declared in his famous Berlin speech: “Freedom is indivisible, and when even one man is enslaved, then no one is free.” Kennedy’s message was: Switzerland sets an example for the world. Don’t allow yourselves to be locked away. Don’t voluntarily choose the digital prison. The nephew of JFK appeared at an anti-restrictions demonstration in Bern. He was a sought-after speaker indeed.
