Food Choices

Food Choices is a medium length documentary on the plant based diet in today's 21st century world. This documentary was refreshing in many different ways. The film was very credible. All the information in this documentary was cited on the screen. The many different interviews throughout the film were with credible sources in many different industries. I appreciated how athletes were included in this documentary. Many men and athletes use the excuse that a vegan diet would not be beneficial to them, so I feel that is film did a great job covering all the bases. This film would benefit many different people including the average Joe, athletes, parents, and young adults. There are many different perspectives given throughout. The director is a parent and talks about a plant based diet for children. If you have seen a lot of other documentaries about plant based diets, you will appreciate how Food Choices covers some of the most common excuses people use as to why they cannot go plant based. This film also has great use of music and sound effects throughout. I appreciated the use of visual graphics with charts and diagrams to visual see what point is being made. Another credible addition to the film was that they added numerous different scientific research papers to support the arguments being made. If you have seen most of the other plant based diet documentaries, I would still highly encourage you to watch Food Choices as it covers different topics not yet argued by other directors.

This is not about being vegan or vegetarian. At one point in the film it pokes fun at how unhealthy vegans/vegetarians can be...eating potato chips and drinking coke can be vegan. This was about a lifestyle choice to eat more plant based foods and more likely avert the many chronic metabolic syndromes that have become far too common. It's tough to make the change, but I've recently tried it, eat all I want, and have lost ~30 lbs so far. After 15 yrs my total cholesterol is finally under 200 as well as most other numbers greatly improving, and this has happened after only a couple months of eating this way. Simple choice is to eat better and feel better, or to one day have a great chance of being forced into taking an assortment of pharmaceuticals with all their costs and lovely side effects. This lifestyle may not make you live longer, but your quality of life will be much better.

Though I agree that this documentary has some biased information about nutrition, we shouldn't ignore the fact that humans consumption (including food) has a negative impact on our planet. Be open-minded and watch this documentary without prejudice against veganism. I don't think promoting veganism is the main message in this film. You don't need to cut out meat and dairy completely if you're a perfectly healthy human being. But you should consider consuming less of those food. Even if you don't care about our mother earth and animals' life, please think about your children and grandchildren. Don't just live for yourself!

This movie so nicely and precisely reveals the hidden truths about Meat and Dairy,, answers all the general concerns and debunks all the myths revolving around the Whole Food Plant Based Lifestyle.

A must watch.

Gives a great overview of the problem with the standard American diet and what we can do instead. Highly recommend for yo-yo dieters like I used to be. I had an a1c of over 11, now my daily blood sugar readings have dropped over 150 points. All thanks to many of the experts in this documentary.
