About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a health-focused documentary that argues for major diet changes through research and real-life stories; Not for you if you want a balanced debate or dislike advocacy-driven films like Fed Up.
Pros: thought-provoking health message; science and statistics focus; relatable patient journeys | Cons: feels one-sided at times; claims seem oversimplified; can feel preachy
