      Miriam Y An accessible and easy to understand exposure of the lies we are told by the medical and health agencies about what constitutes a healthy diet. The film proposes the healthiest and most natural diet for hyman beings is plant based and whole foods. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Louise C A rather biased documentary. Comparison of eating one egg daily being equivalent to smoking five cigarettes a day, is an example of this. It does have a valid point to make about what we eat connecting directly with our health. Segments of the film were so disgusting (when reporting on hog farming) that I had to fast forward some parts. The movie is American based, with some factory farming so extreme, I'm sure my native New Zealand could never be that bad, due to our laws that protect animals. Still worth watching, to heighten awareness of the value of a plant-based eating regime. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/24 Full Review TJ S This film is a biased, opinion based project that uses cherry picked data to scare people into going Vegan. Yes, there's data that suggest a vegan diet is beneficial, however there are also studies and data that suggest how a balanced omnivore diet is better. If you're going to make a movie about health, show all aspects and not just one side. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/24 Full Review Valdemar U Dangerous lies, that will only lead to damaging peoples health. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/28/23 Full Review Jeff H Fantastic information, very well done! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/21/23 Full Review ildiko b Being a part of a cancer patient's team requires life and death responsibility at a professional level. This is something that my husband and I do for a living. This film reflects real challenges faced by real people. We have seen the facts of this documentary first hand.
