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 documentary is all about how the current nutrition guidelines are 100% wrong and are causing most of America to be fat and have diabetes. All of your favorite doctors are here.. all talking about how the government has, and continues to, tell you the exact wrong information and how many diabetics are getting sicker daily. It is a horrible scandal. I only hope one or two people see this and are saved by it.

There is, one problem, however, I think whomever directed this chose to make it a broad, low science based documentary. This of course, is not great for the position as it leaves it open to attack. There is tons of science backing Keto (mostly from the military) - that science should have been used. This thing should have been science study after science study.

I also think they made a mistake with not showing the results and instead doing a continuous glucose monitor example. Sure that was a short and easy way -- but not very persuasive. I know for a fact hundreds of people have used Keto to restore good health and lose weight so just taking a little more time to highlight them would have made for a better documentary.

Anyone who watches this and would like to know more should look this doctors up on "You tube" where they are featured in much more science heavy presentations.

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."

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.
