Mike Tyson discusses terrible prison food, RFK Jr. links nutrition to violence

On Robert Kennedy Jr.'s podcast, Mike Tyson described the poor quality of food during his three years in prison, explaining inmates were fed mainly sugar and processed foods on a 60-cent daily budget. Tyson stated the unhealthy diet contributed to increased violence and aggression among prisoners, with inmates attacking each other over minor issues. Kennedy cited research showing that improving prison food quality reduces violence by 50% and disciplinary incidents in juvenile facilities by 70%. Tyson credited his mentor Cus D'Amato with teaching him proper nutrition. He now focuses on a breakfast of eggs and cheese, and emphasizes seafood as the best fat-burning food in his current diet.
