Diet Fiction

I felt the film was somewhat bias with its message so I came here to see who sponsored the film, in other words who funded the message but it looks to be missing from the profile. Aside from that, I agreed with most of the film's content. Please remember to think critically and not follow blindly, good health to you all :)

Dont waste your time. There are more lies than facts in this doco. .

We're told "Potato chips & donuts have more fat than carbs" HUH? False.. Most popular brand chips & donuts have 2 or 3 times more total carbs than total fats.

Then we're told "the average saturated fat content in red meat is 40%, lean chicken breast 30%, wild salmon 20% and eggs 20%". HUH?? False, False, False and False. Any nutritional website will tell you its more like between 3% - 5% for each of these foods.

I switched it off at this point. waste of time.

Lots of opinion, no evidence. Just a bunch of people talking about their opinions about various diets. Be careful and research the science yourself.

Vegans think that they are on a crusade and that eating a plant base diet is an activism act, for the cause, the the planet and for themselves. One of the speaker's at the end tells it exactly as it is. That is why they produce propaganda pieces to push in their mind the only legitimate way of life and diet. Sorry but its not. As per all the reviews here, people are not fooled by your propaganda. The problems is that, yes 75% of what you are saying is true but you are destroying the message because you are pushing the 25% not true and this is the best proof that you care more about the cause than about helping people eat better. I will tell you a little secret, only siths thinks in absolute.

It seems like some of the reviewers didn't pay close attention to the film. They never say you have to BE vegan. In fact, they say you don't even have to be fully plant-based. The point is to minimize animal products and maximize plants in your diet. Another reviewer wrote "the move more eat less model hasn't worked and never will" - again, the film specifically says that exercise is not where the focus of weight loss should be. Nor do they ever say eat less. It's about optimizing nutrition in your diet while minimizing empty calories. PLEASE actually pay attention to the movie if you are going to review it.

I thought it was excellent and well-informed, and even open-minded toward those who aren't interested in a fully plant-based diet.
