If you enjoy provocative food documentaries that challenge mainstream advice, this may hook you, especially if you liked That Sugar Film or Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret; Not for you if you want balanced debate or dislike agenda-driven messaging.
Pros: thought-provoking health questions; motivating lifestyle push; eye-opening for some | Cons: feels one-sided; disputed accuracy; heavy-handed conspiracy tone
