Bullsh*t Baffles Brains – Viva!life 69

The article discusses how the meat industry and its lobbyists are using tactics similar to those employed by the tobacco industry to spread fake news and alternative facts in order to preserve profits. Just like the tobacco industry denied the link between smoking and lung cancer for decades, the meat industry is now dismissing research showing that processed and red meat can cause cancer.

The World Health Organisation and the World Cancer Research Fund have both issued reports linking processed and red meat to cancer, but the meat industry-funded experts on the Meat Advisory Panel have dismissed this research. Despite evidence showing the health benefits of vegan diets, industry-funded experts continue to promote meat consumption, ignoring the risks to human health. Ultimately, the article warns against falling for industry propaganda and emphasizes the importance of choosing a plant-based diet for better health outcomes.
