If McDonalds did it-
By Bill Barbary
If McDonald’s funded research claiming eating their food every day was healthy, would you believe it?
If McDonald’s helped fund the FDA to approve that research, would you still trust the FDA?
If McDonald’s executives moved freely between corporate boardrooms and FDA leadership, would you call that science… or collusion?
If McDonald’s paid media outlets millions in advertising while those same outlets promoted McDonald’s-funded “health” research, would you believe the coverage was objective?
If McDonald’s created an ever-expanding book of diseases with no objective biological markers and claimed eating McDonald’s daily treated these conditions, would you even believe those diseases were real?
If studies showing severe harm, worsening health, and long-term damage were buried because McDonald’s would pull funding, while only glowing studies saw the light of day, would you call that evidence-based?
If McDonald’s secretly hired ghostwriters to produce flattering studies, then paid famous nutritionists to slap their names on them and push them into top journals—while suppressing data showing heart disease, obesity, and metabolic collapse—would you trust those “peer-reviewed” papers?
If McDonald’s rewrote the official nutrition guidelines so more and more “disorders” required McDonald’s products, and the people rewriting those rules were financially tied to McDonald’s, would you call the explosion of diagnoses progress… or marketing?
If McDonald’s financed medical schools, designed textbooks, and shaped curriculum, would you trust what your doctor said?
If McDonald’s gave doctors free trips, gifts, consulting fees, and speaking gigs, would you expect honest criticism of McDonald’s products?
If a doctor ordered you to eat McDonald’s every day to become healthier but you gained weight, felt worse, and deteriorated—would you blame yourself… or question the system?
If McDonald’s funded “experts” whose job was to discredit home-cooked food, exercise, sunlight, and fresh vegetables—while attacking anyone who questioned McDonald’s—would you wonder why real alternatives were always labeled “unproven”?
Now replace McDonald’s with pharmaceutical corporations and fast food with psychiatric drugs.
That’s not a conspiracy theory. That’s psychiatry!
That’s the business model.
And that business model is shaping what we call “mental illness” and the “mental health crisis.”
