Although the funding was for separate research, it raises questions about the researchers’ agenda to make saturated fat look benign or even beneficial

Guidelines published in the Annals of Internal Medicine last fall defied prevailing scientific opinion, saying there’s no need to reduce red or processed meat consumption for good health.

But on Dec. 31 the Annals issued a correction, saying that Bradley Johnston, the chief author of the work and until last year a professor of epidemiology at Dalhousie, failed to disclose a key conflict of interest. Texas A&M AgriLife Research provided $76,863 to Johnston and Dalhousie for a new meta-analysis on saturated fat. This funding occurred within the 36-month reporting period required by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors.

Asked about the Annals correction, Texas A&M AgriLife spokeswoman Holly Shive said that Johnston revised his disclosure statementfor the correction, adding items that exceeded the journal’s disclosure requirements. She said that because Texas A&M AgriLife Research is a state agency affiliated with an academic institution it did not need to be listed.

In December 2016, Johnston was the senior author on another study in the Annals of Internal Medicine that called into question international health guidelines advising people to eat less sugar. The study, insisting that warnings to cut sugar were based on weak evidence, was paid for by the International Life Sciences Institute, a food industry trade group with members such as McDonald’s, Coca-Cola and PepsiCo.
