  "summary": "Calley Means, a senior advisor at Health and Human Services (HHS) and co-founder of TrueMed, has announced his resignation from his role as a senior health adviser in the Trump Administration. Means, who co-founded the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, expressed his gratitude for President Donald Trump and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a post on X, stating that he was resigning \"with tremendous respect.\" He cited frustration over the lack of progress on key issues related to the MAHA agenda, such as defining and regulating ultraprocessed foods. Means has been instrumental in coordinating an alliance between Kennedy and Trump during the 2024 election cycle and has worked on various food-policy initiatives, including efforts to limit the use of artificial food dyes and restrict SNAP benefits for soda purchases.",
