Hungry for Change

Hungry for Change is a documentary that denounces the Food & Beverage industry, holding it largely responsible for obesity and consequential unhealthiness in the US. It condemns the dieting industry for maintaining the status quo while disguised as a cure.

So, how do you lose weight, regain energy and treat any associated illnesses? Hungry for Change promotes the consumption of natural whole foods as the only real solution. The film is not too loaded or soppy (my main complaint with these types of documentaries), and extremely interesting.

This film won't come as a revelation for those who are already nutrition-conscious, but it's a great reminder not to fall for that refreshing diet soda anytime soon. I highly recommend the watch to those who have a desire to lose weight and have tried every fad diet without success, for those who feel plain unhealthy and need a change.

Hungry for Change is informative, educational and motivational.

Hungry for Change is great for those who want some tips on losing weight. The central premise is to remember that "you are to love yourself unconditionally" .

The movie also enlightens viewers that carbohydrates are not the problem... sugar is the issue. If you need a place to jump start your nutritional journey, a place to realize what is in the foods you eat- a place to realize that that stress can affect your weight then this documentary is for you.

The documentary can be the first step on your "journey for a healthy lifestyle".

The movie is not to be taken as gospel. It offers solid and highly beneficial advice to altering a processed lifestyle in a manor you see fit by offering a variety of different options. You will either both benefit from good advice and utilize a new method(s) to improve your nutrition intake, or not. You will either be informed on information you knew not before (which can be followed by proper research), or not.

Shout-out to the other reviewer that caught the whole "glutamine being the "G" in ATCG" incorrect comment from someone blasting the film. Respect. If you have criticisms, I suggest doing plenty of research, not wikipediaing the information presented. Nutrition is a highly person-specific science and what works for some may not for others. You should gather ideas, test them, include the ones that make you feel better, healthier etc and don't follow the ones that don't work for you.

I don't understand why some people here keep on saying another infomercial. Really? You did not get the point at all? Just because the people in this documentary are authors selling books about health doesn't mean they are promoting their products. Where in the film did they promote it because I want to see.

The message is CRYSTAL-CLEAR. CHOOSE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. It's sad that some people fail to see it instead writing a negative review that this documentary gave them BS after 10 minutes. If this film judged the fat people, call them names, and blame their choice of food in an unspeakable terms then I will surely write a negative review. But none of it was delivered in this film.

I'm not going to buy a juicer. But after seeing this documentary participated by health experts and medical doctors, I now have a different approach to eating food. I choose healthy lifestyle because I do not want to get sick and pay for high health care costs. It is my choice.

Wow, it's crazy how there are 4 reviews that slam the movie, yet it's overall rating is still high.

Maybe it's because you have people like melinda2001 who thinks "Glutamate" is the "G" in ATGC. Try guanine, not glutamate.

While I believe any movie is open to criticism, even these "Food Matters" films, I think this production has been one of the most sane ones. Why?

Unlike the juicing, vegan, raw food, etc movies, this one was more balanced. One contributor even said, if you can do small steps like reducing red meat intake, it will be helpful.

The main message I took away was to try to shift away from the processed and more to the whole foods. What's wrong with that?

Remember, IMDb has a weighted rating system to filter out new people, weak reviewers, etc. This movie is still a solid 7. I suggest you watch it for yourself before you believe the conventional wisdom posted by others like melinda2001.
