They said sugar was the villain. But behind the scenes, Big Meat and Big Dairy were pulling the strings—shifting blame to protect their profits. In this eye-opening episode of Healthspiracy, we reveal how government guidelines got hijacked, how fake experts pushed meat as medicine, and how real science was buried under bacon grease.
We call out the loudest voices in the carnivore craze, expose the industry-funded lies, and break down the serious health and climate risks tied to meat and dairy. If you’ve been told fruit is dangerous and steak is a superfood—this episode is your wake-up call.
