The Meat Lobby: Big Business Against Health? (2016)

Plot

In 2015, the World Health Organization identified a certain additive found in processed meats as a potential cancer-causing agent. Interestingly, this additive was almost prohibited in the United States during the 1970s, but intense lobbying from the meat industry undermined the credibility of the researchers. Central to this controversy are the scientists who partner with the meat sector and are well-compensated for their research that advocates for meat eating, raising questions about the integrity of their findings and the implications for public health.
