FORKS OVER KNIVES




Documentary

REVIEW
The film presents evidence that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict mankind can be controlled or even reversed by not eating animal-based and processed foods. Instead our food intake should be a plant-based whole food diet.

By following the film’s director Lee Fulkerson’s personal journey to turn things around in his life we witness a transformation. In case the point is lost on some, there are three other sick people shown as evidence that a vegetarian diet is the best course of action to eliminate all manner of ills of mankind.

It is not subtle and makes no attempt to present differing points of view fairly. In fact those who disagree with the basic premise by promoting the beneficial contribution of meat to protein in diet, for example, get short shrift.

CLASSIFICATION
for some thematic elements and incidental smoking.
