Former Bush administration doctor disputes RFK Jr.'s claim about health in the US
Jonathan Reiner, former cardiologist to Vice President Dick Cheney, challenged RFK Jr.'s assertion that Americans are the sickest population on the planet. Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr. made the claim during an appearance on Theo Von's podcast, attributing America's health crisis to ultra-processed foods and government misinformation about disease. He cited statistics showing childhood obesity increasing from one in five to 40 percent overweight, with 70 percent of children's food being ultra-processed. RFK Jr. also said the federal government spends $4.3 trillion annually on chronic disease treatment, accounting for 40 cents of every tax dollar. Reiner disagreed with RFK Jr.'s characterization, writing that while Americans could improve health through better eating and vaccination, calling them the world's sickest population is inaccurate.

Tokenized Assets Shift From Wrappers to Building Blocks in DeFi
The post Tokenized Assets Shift From Wrappers to Building Blocks in DeFi appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. RWAs are rapidly moving on-chain, unlocking new opportunities for investors and DeFi protocols, according to a new report from Dune and RWAxyz. Tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) are moving beyond digital versions of traditional securities to become key building blocks of decentralized finance (DeFi), according to the 2025 RWA Report from Dune and RWAxyz. The report notes that Treasuries, bonds, credit, and equities are now being used in DeFi as collateral, trading instruments, and yield products. This marks tokenization’s “real breakthrough” – composability, or the ability to combine and reuse assets across different protocols. Projects are already showing how this works in practice. Asset manager Maple Finance’s syrupUSDC, for example, has grown to $2.5 billion, with more than 30% placed in DeFi apps like Spark ($570 million). Centrifuge’s new deJAAA token, a wrapper for Janus Henderson’s AAA CLO fund, is already trading on Aerodrome, Coinbase and other exchanges, with Stellar planned next. Meanwhile, Aave’s Horizon RWA Market now lets institutional users post tokenized Treasuries and CLOs as collateral. This trend underscores a bigger shift: RWAs are no longer just copies of traditional assets; instead, they are becoming core parts of on-chain finance, powering lending, liquidity, and yield, and helping to close the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and DeFi. “RWAs have crossed the chasm from experimentation to execution,” Sid Powell, CEO of Maple Finance, says in the report. “Our growth to $3.5B AUM reflects a broader shift: traditional financial services are adopting crypto assets while institutions seek exposure to on-chain markets.” Investor demand for higher returns and more diversified options is mainly driving this growth. Tokenized Treasuries proved there is strong demand, with $7.3 billion issued by September 2025 – up 85% year-to-date. The growth was led by BlackRock, WisdomTree, Ondo, and Centrifuge’s JTRSY (Janus Henderson Anemoy Treasury Fund). Spark’s $1…
