President Trump is thinking about choosing Dr. Casey Means to be the main doctor for the country, called the surgeon general. He had another person in mind before, but he changed his mind.

Trump wrote on social media on Wednesday that Means is a good choice for his plan to "Make America Healthy Again." He said she will work to stop serious diseases and help Americans be healthier and happier.

"Her school success and her work are very good," Trump said. "Dr. Casey Means could be a great doctor for the country."

Trump decided not to choose Janette Nesheiwat for the job. She used to talk about health on Fox News. This was the second time Trump chose someone for a health job, but the Senate did not agree. Nesheiwat was going to talk to a group of senators on Thursday.

Means and her brother, who used to be a lobbyist, helped Kennedy when he tried to become president in 2024. They also helped him say he would support Trump last summer. Means and her brother met with some people who really like Trump. Famous people like Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan said good things about them. Now, her brother works for the White House. He is often on TV and talks about stopping people from getting food money, taking fluoride out of water, and other things he thinks are important.

Casey Means has not worked in government and stopped her training to be a doctor because she did not like the usual way of doing medicine. She started a company called Levels that uses computers to help people see their blood sugar and other health numbers. She also earns money from selling health items like vitamins, creams, and teas on her social media pages.

In talks and writings, Means and her brother say many things cause the country's health problems. They say food companies trick people into eating unhealthy foods. This makes people need daily medicine from drug companies for problems like being overweight, diabetes, and other long-term sicknesses.

Most health experts think that eating a lot of processed food in America makes people fat and causes other health problems. Means also says that changes in what we eat and how we live are connected to many other problems like not being able to have children, forgetting things, feeling very sad, and having trouble with sex.

Most long-term health problems that doctors help with happen because of how we live, Means said in a book she wrote with her brother in 2024.

Means has mostly avoided Kennedy's ideas about vaccines that many people say are not true. But on her website, she said we should check more into how safe vaccines are. She also thinks it should be easier for people to take drug companies to court if they are harmed by a vaccine. Since the late 1980s, a law has protected these companies from being sued. This was done to help them make vaccines without being afraid of expensive court cases.

She studied to be a doctor at a good university. But now, many people follow her online. This is because she does not agree with normal medicine. She tells people to eat healthy food and change their lives to get better from problems like being too fat, having sugar problems, and other long-term sicknesses.

If Means becomes the main health doctor, he will help with Kennedy's big plan called MAHA. This plan wants to take out many extra things and chemicals from food in the U.S. It also wants to stop problems where people in government groups might help themselves instead of others. And it wants to make school lunches and other food programs better for health.

Nesheiwat is a doctor in New York and talks about health on TV. She supports Trump and shows pictures of them together online. Nesheiwat is also related to Mike Waltz. Trump wants Mike Waltz to work for the United Nations.

But a woman named Laura Loomer, who supports Donald Trump and helped remove some people from his team, recently criticized her. Loomer wrote on X this week that the surgeon general should not be someone who supports the COVID vaccine, got the job because they knew someone, is in trouble for a medical mistake, and did not study medicine in the US.

Last month, a journalist wrote that a person got her medical degree from a university in the Caribbean. But she had said she got her degree from a different university in Arkansas. The White House stopped her from getting a job because people were not sure if she would be approved. This is what someone who knows about the situation said, but they did not want to say their name.

Nesheiwat wrote on social media on Wednesday: "I am happy to keep helping President Trump and working with Secretary Kennedy in an important job. I want to help make Americans healthy again! My goal is still to make all Americans healthier, and that job has not changed."

The surgeon general is like the country's main doctor. He is in charge of 6,000 health workers and can tell people about dangers to public health.

In March, the White House decided not to choose Dave Weldon to be the head of the Centers for Disease Control. He used to be a politician. Some important politicians were worried because he didn't think vaccines were good. He stopped trying to get the job because the White House said he would not get enough support.
