What the Health

All these bad reviews aren't based on true facts but on doubt. It is normal behavior to get angry when another person comes up with conclusions that doesn't resonate with our own beliefs. You probably have these thoughts because doctors not yet have found "the cure" for every disease..

Look at people at the retirement homes..Do they look healthy? can they walk, remember, are they super energetic? most often the answer is no..

I have now seen thousands of remarkable situations, which you can see on Mcdougall site.. There was this man who could not walk, talk, feed himself or remember. He changed his diet, and even took his driver license again, played crazy memory games and can now talk again..

I can tell you that Dr. T. Colin Campbell was raised on a farm, and he believed that milk, eggs and meat were natures best food, until he found that several illnesses DIDN'T EXCIST in Asia.. until their kids got the typical Western diet (meat, cheese, eggs, and guess what. these kids got diabetes, cancer, stroke... (these people were eating mostly plant based with little to no meat)

He began studying mice, and tried to feed them animal protein.. what happened? The cancer cells GREW! then they reduced the animal protein and the cancer cells reduced...

Dr. Mcdougall used to eat A LOT of fast food and even got the stroke..

Neal Bearnard used to see his mother carefully pour the grease into a jar and use again..

NONE of these doctors were raised plant based, but they became unpopular, because they were more interested in making people healthy than profit (medicine)

Doctors have little to NO education on how diet can prevent and reverse stroke, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, acne, dementia, Alzheimer's, Astma, and more..

What is so bad about turning one belief to another? It can safe lives. From a very young age, kids are thought to believe one thing, and cannot see things from other perspectives.

I can tell that I used to eat so much meat, gravy, cheese and thought I was fine... I had terrible joint paints, acne, felt tired, and after going vegan, the symptoms were GONE And I'm NEVER EVER SICK(!) I have muscles now, and have so much energy, and I never thought I could feel so light and energetic...

They are not promoting Sugar, but saying that saying that sugar does not have any effect on the body alone...

These doctors have told to eat FRUIT SUGAR which is ABSOLUTELY not the same as refined sugar, which in great amounts can cause bad teeth...

There is a lot of information to find on YouTube with plant based diets, Ted Talks for example, and speeches from the doctors.. Not everything is what we believe, so it is our own responsibility to research

What if someone told you there was another way to do something and you got mad? Just educate yourself, and see how much your life can improve...

It is amazing how people reject new information and claim that this documentary is just vegan propaganda but they do not complain about the propaganda that raised them to eat meat, milk, cheese, and consume medicines for every little discomfort.

Loved the film.

I found this while looking for information to counter "Fat Fiction", a documentary promoting low carbs and high fat diet ("Keto" diet...which can cause kidney stones, by the way) for its health benefits, which seemed too good to be true. "What the Health" started with facts about diabetes costs--a good place to start a discussion of diet--but it deteriorated fast and lost me completely when it defended sugar.

Quickly it seemed this is promoting a vegan diet, but then it diverted to impact on the environment of raising farm animals. Then it became about civil rights and raising farm animals being institutional racism. Finally, big Farms and big Pharma get a zing along with old smoky industries. Can't argue with zinging big pharma, but let's try and focus. Are you making a movie about eating healthy? Or about saving the environment from pig and cow poop? Or is it about saving minorities from having to live near pig farms? Or is it about corporate agriculture? Or greedy drug companies? Corporate greed generally?

In the end, I could only stand about half of what the movie maker put on the screen. The fake ADA guy was the worst. How about just discussing legitimate dietary problems. Oh, I'm a vegetarian. After seeing these two movies, I'm investigating the Mediterranean style diet that seems to have allowed people to live longer and have less heart disease in Greece and Italy.

Last year, near my 18th birthday..I stumbled upon a documentary while researching the ill effects of animal agriculture and environmental destruction, got to watch "Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret" from the same directors and writers. It changed my life, basically changed the way I lived my life.

After discovering the big ugly lie that we are told about how the environmental crisis is all and just because of the fossil fuels. It goes on uncovering how the majority of us eat is killing the planet. I went full vegan, right then and there with my family of five. The FACTS were in front of me. Peer- reviewed studies. I highly recommend everybody to watch that.

Now this one is sort of a sequel to Cowspiracy. Brings us to the next big issue effecting everybody but in a more personal way. HOW YOUR DIET IS KILLING YOU! The best kept secret in medicine is that your body wants to heal itself, if given the right chance and conditions. It was lovely to see all my superheroes in one feature: Dr. Micheal Greger, Caldwell Esselstyn, Neal Bernard and many more. This is a perfect documentary to show to your friends and family and I don't this any sane person would turn away from this and not at the least consider veganism as a way of life.

As I like to put it, you go vegan for a reason and stay for a hundred.

Anyone who left a 7* or less rating just isn't getting it, sadly. Or they didn't watch the entire thing, or they love our government. This is not a vegan propaganda. This is entirely about all the crap we don't realize we are eating, and how it kills us, and also how eating a plant based diet is soooooo healthy. I mean come on people. You honestly don't understand how eating a plant based diet is so much better for us? Really?! You think all the animals we kill to eat are so healthy and holy and blessed and make sure that they don't allow any crap into their bodies?! Our world is overpopulated so we need to mass produce the animals. How to do that? Steroids, antibiotics, not caring about how they're raised, not thoroughly and gently treating them all as they need to be treated because we are eating them. I am very saddened at how many negative reviews there are. That's a shame. You think we all get cancer just because? Just for the heck if it? NO. It comes from somewhere you fools. What do we do the most on our lives? Eat. Just sit back and think about it. Y'all are just to ignorant, naive and LAZY to eat a plant based diet. God forbid you do something to make a complete change to your life.
