- The 72-page report criticized the US food supply, pesticides, and prescription drugs, citing over 500 studies, though some do not exist or are misinterpreted according to NOTUS findings.

- NOTUS identified that seven of the over 500 studies referenced in the report appear to have never been released publicly, while the White House has sought $500 million in congressional funding to advance Kennedy's MAHA initiative.
- The White House confirmed the report will be updated to fix minor citation and formatting errors, with policy recommendations planned for release later this year.
