Conservative health and wellness influencer Alex Clark stated in a recent episode of "Pod Force One" that she has received numerous death threats for advocating for healthier eating habits and for her conservative Christian viewpoints.
Clark, who hosts Turning Point USA's "Culture Apothecary" podcast, indicated that the threats have increased significantly following the death of Charlie Kirk. She also claimed that some of the threats have originated from supporters of Candace Owens.
"I could not tell you since Charlie was killed the amount of death threats I’ve received," Clark told guest host Lydia Moynihan. "And what’s even crazier is a few of those have definitely been from the left, but a lot of them have been from Candace Owens fans."
Clark, associated with the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, said she now requires "24/7 security" when visiting college campuses due to the threats, despite her advocacy being focused on health and wellness. She recounted being asked if she needed to wear a bulletproof vest, emphasizing that her message is about "eating real food."
She described the current climate as "a really scary time" to be an openly conservative Christian in the United States, suggesting that conservatives, particularly those displaying overt political affiliation like wearing a MAGA hat, face significant risks.
Clark also discussed strategies for engaging women, asserting that the conservative movement has an opportunity to connect with women through topics such as parenting, health, food, and family, areas she believes the left currently dominates through pop culture.
Looking ahead, Clark predicted that "chemicals in our clothing" will become a significant issue for health-conscious voters. She anticipates 2026 to be the "year of pesticides" and 2027 to focus on chemicals in clothing for MAHA voters, highlighting a potential shift towards natural fiber and organic cotton clothing and away from synthetics like polyester.
Clark pointed out that U.S. laws regarding clothing chemicals have not been updated since the 1940s, and in light of rising rates of eczema and skin sensitivities, she believes more Americans should be aware of these outdated regulations. She suggested that the FDA could easily implement changes to address these concerns.
