The Health Industry Conspiracy: How Major Organizations Promote Disease for Profit and the Power

The Health Industry Conspiracy: How Major Organizations Promote Disease for Profit and the Power of a Plant-Based Diet

This response is drawn from excerpts of an investigative documentary exploring the critical and often hidden connections between diet, chronic disease, and the pervasive influence of corporate money on major health organizations and government guidelines.

The excerpts reveal alarming findings regarding the Standard American Diet and its link to an "epidemic cascade of debilitating disease":

• Processed Meat and Cancer: Processed meats (like bacon, sausage, and hot dogs) are classified by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a Group 1 carcinogen, placing them in the same category as asbestos and plutonium, with a direct link found in over 800 studies. Consuming just one serving of deli meats daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 18%.

• Diet and Diabetes: The primary cause of diabetes is a diet that builds up fat in the blood, leading to insulin resistance, and is associated with a typical meat-based, animal-based diet. Carbohydrate consumption was found to be inversely related to diabetes (more carbs meant less diabetes) while meat was strongly correlated.

• Heart Disease and Animal Products: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death globally. The contribution of an animal-based diet to heart disease is "huge and it is pervasive". Eating dead meat can cause a burst of inflammation within minutes, paralyzing and stiffening arteries. Chicken, often marketed as healthy, is a leading source of sodium and contains clear-cut carcinogens (heterocyclic amines) when cooked. Eating just one egg a day may be as detrimental as smoking five cigarettes daily for life expectancy due to the concentration of saturated fat and cholesterol in the yolk.

• Conflicts of Interest: Major organizations like the American Cancer Society (ACS), American Diabetes Association (ADA), and American Heart Association (AHA) are accused of encouraging the consumption of the very foods linked to the diseases they are supposed to be fighting. The American Diabetes Association takes money from companies like Dannon (dairy), Kraft Foods (processed cheese), and Oscar Meyer (processed meats). The American Heart Association accepts money from the beef, poultry, and dairy industries, as well as fast food manufacturers. This financial collusion suggests that ending these diseases may not be the goal, as chronic disease treatment is a multi-trillion dollar industry.

• Government Complicity: The U.S. government's USDA dietary guidelines are created by individuals who have received money from the meat, dairy, and sugar industries. Furthermore, government check-off programs, funded by producers, actively market unhealthy, highly processed products (like cheese-heavy pizzas and bacon double cheeseburgers) to the American public.

• Reversing Disease: The sources highlight a movement of doctors and individuals successfully treating and reversing chronic diseases (heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, asthma) using a whole-food, low-fat, plant-based diet. For instance, patients suffering from cardiovascular disease who adopted a plant-based diet were able to avoid major cardiac events 99.4% of the time. Anecdotal evidence suggests profound improvements within weeks, including being able to stop taking multiple medications.
