Fat Fiction

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

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.

... olive oil, avocado and walnut smoothies to start; pork crackling, lardons and black pudding for main; followed by sugar free dripping ice cream - washed down with a bottle of Thunderbird Red, or Blue if it's the weekend.

Fat does not make you fat, this has been acknowledged for some time now, as has the the role of the corrupt sugar mafia - no harm in re-amplifying that, and it's welcome. The fact is that when you shuffle, the world will still be no wiser to what's good for you than the hunter-gatherer that set the standard some time ago.

A great piece of storytelling that let's us know what we are told as truths often are not. This film helps us to decipher what is truly healthy and what is non-science propaganda. It informs us and give us the information to make a informed choice.

Finding the truth will set you free and make you healthier in the process. Watch this and be informed.

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.
