Food Choices

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.

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!

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.

Nicely done and very informative documentary. For healthy society and healthy and better planet earth plant based diet seems to be the answer.

I found it to be the most comprehensive and objectively presented approach to understanding food and health. More importantly it approached the subject like the average person would who is trying to sift through all the unqualified information out there that is NOT scientifically backed by research and data. It has profoundly affected me and my attitude about animal based food products and long term health. Just watch it and make your own decisions. But watch it.
