The Spin

Narrative A

This groundbreaking research, which used gold-standard methods to analyze real data from thousands of diverse, healthy people, finally cuts through decades of anti-meat propaganda and shows what many have suspected all along. Animal protein doesn't kill people — it might actually protect them from cancer and chronic disease.

Narrative B

These findings contradict established health guidance from major organizations like the Canadian Cancer Society and the World Health Organization, which explicitly warn against consuming red and processed meat. The beef industry's funding of this study raises serious questions about potential bias, despite claims of independence.
