To add to that there is also outright commercial corruption too.
For example a lot of governments made policy based on nutrition research on the US that later was found out to be fraudulent and corrupt, it caused a great damage to nutrition research, a lot of it is deeply distrusted now even when it is correct, and millions of people worldwide have bad diets based off this literally evil corrupt research that been destroying lives, sometimes literally killing people as they eat awful stuff thinking it is good for them. I was almost a victim of that too (when I was teenager, around 16, my Chrolesterol spiked to emergency levels, of the point people would want me to go into surgery to check if my heart was OK... medics and nutrition professionals only made it worse, giving me bogus advice, like giving me diets based on the "pyramid", I got better when I started to ignore them and do my own research).
