For decades, patients have relied on medical guidelines to shape their decisions and trust their doctors’ recommendations. These clinical protocols are supposed to represent the best available science, free from bias and backed by rigorous research. But behind some of the most influential medical advice lies a shadowy truth: private industries have often played a significant role in shaping what’s considered “best practice.”

The result has been a mix of controversy, distrust, and health policies that may not always serve the patient’s best interest.
