A good Change

This documentary helped my family make a huge change in our eating habits. I would love to see an update version to fortify even further the need to access our eating lifestyle

Well-made propaganda, but reviews are not votes

This movie is trying to convince you to stop eating carbohydrate. It's part of the ongoing controversy about the modern world's entrenched idea that fat causes disease. This idea is indeed very dodgy scientifically, but also has huge vested interests: just imagine what Coca Cola must think of this movie!

But reviews are not votes on truth. This is a well-made and interesting movie about an idea worth investigating. The stories are compelling and well presented. It's a movie worth watching for anyone interested in the sugar/fat controversy, or who is experimenting with low carb diets. For that reason I give it 7/10 *as a movie*.

With the exception of a few segments, the movie fails to present scientific data. The movie itself says that obtaining scientific funding for research against the prevailing paradigm is hard. But I advise anyone to *think* about what they're being shown and *research* anything they're doing to themselves. Always. This movie is no exception.

Nobody should be voting this movie 1/10 or 10/10 because they do or do not believe its claims. It's a fairly well-made movie and good for the debate.

A documentary for Ketogenic diet skeptics

The documentary several people and how their life has been affected by Ketogenic diet. There is an autistic boy whos' mother put him and a 'specific carb diet' A family of an Autistic girl, a cancer patient and a diabetic amongst others. My favourite part is regarding a south African sports scientist in a trial when the government tries to silence and destroy his credibility after suggesting a mother wean her baby on cauliflower and high fats. Its a well made and natural feeling documentary there's several professionals and it even shows you studys as well as explaining why we need to improve diet and change the way we handle agriculture. you will not be disappointed so check it out.
