Fat Fiction

In 50 years, this documentary will be considered the gold standard in how to reverse diabetes and ensure good health. I have tried it myself and have lost weight and it has helped my daily headaches tremendously. I am not ravenously hungry anymore and quit snacking almost entirely due to eating more fat. An easy way to incorporate fat is eating avocados, eggs & coconut chips for a snack. Look, go moderate carb and SEE HOW YOU FEEL. Than, start going low carb if you feel better. Only thing missing from this documentary is mentioning reducing gluten & dairy intake which contribute to headaches and other digestive issues. Also, ditch the sugar - it does nothing for you and fuels chronic conditions. I wish you all the best of luck.

This is a fantastic documentary. The facts that it contain show the real truth about food, sugar and fat. Please watch this movie - it may change your life - to the better. It did for me. You will find out that most people are stuffing themself full of sugar - in many cases without even knowing or thinking about it. And that is like taking poison for the body. The doc also show the shady business that's going on among the people that have recommended a dangerous diet for decades, hurting and killing people in the long run by doing so.

I was familiar already with the topic at hand and the research behind it is as sound as nutritional studies can get(which is not a lot). The real issue is how the documentary was presented, it was like it spent too much time beating around the bush, going in circles and repeating points. It also did not help that at times it went for smug analogies to sway opinions( how many times you had orange juice in the last year?... and so on). I dont know what was the intention of the documentary but what i know is that you either try to be accessible and resonate with the masses or you are diligent and accurate. In the end it feels like this one kind of failed at both. Not really recommended, there are 10 minutes videos on youtube who convey the same amount of information

Wow, this could have been done in a one minute short. This documentary views more like a long winded repetitive advertisement for the junk books the interviewees have written. It also makes several misrepresentations of the science (eg nina ticholtz airheaded claims). We have known and it has been widely reported for DECADES that it is not fat per se, but type of fats. It is over 30 years since the science, the prestige press and the popular press has noted that for example margarine is unhealthy compared to other fats. skip this mindless nonsense and spend two minutes at mayo clinic website article on healthy eating and dietary fat. You will learn ten times more than you will learn in this repetitive, longwinded promotional "documentary."

I have been a cook for 18 years. I was taught that the Food Pyramid is our guide for cooking healthy cooking. We have turned people into junkies, craving sugar and Carbohydrates. Thank you for making this documentary.
