Eating Healthy The New / Old Paradigm Shift

Have recently watched three documentary movies that demonstrate the benefits of eating healthy. The movies followed participants who practiced healthy eating habits that dramatically changed their lives and health in a positive direction. Some of the results were amazing to say the least. I recommend all three as wake up calls to anyone thinking about changing their lifestyle to a more healthy status. It's time to unwash our brains and release ourselves from the corporate shackles.

Forks Over Knives -  2011  PG  96 minutes
Focusing on the research of two food scientists, this earnest documentary reveals that despite broad advances in medical technology, the popularity of modern processed foods has led to epidemic rates of obesity, diabetes and other diseases.


Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead -  2010  NR   97 Minutes
Focusing on two men whose bodies have been trashed by steroids, obesity and illness, this documentary chronicles the rigorous healing path -- including a two-month diet of fruits and vegetables -- that both attempt in a bid to rescue their health.


Food Matters - 2008  NR  77 Minutes
With a staggering number of Americans suffering from obesity and other food-related maladies, this film takes a timely and hard-hitting look at how the food we eat is helping or hurting our health, and what we can do to live (and eat) better. Nutritionists, naturopaths, scientists, doctors, medical journalists and more weigh in on everything from using food as medicine to the value of organic food and the safety of the food we consume.


Until next time... Cheers!
