What the Health (2017)

After watching just a few minutes of constant lies being told, I refused to watch anymore. It has been scientifically proven that fat does not make you fat! Sugar makes you fat ergo Carbs make you fat.

Nazi propaganda minister Goebels would hail this video. The "alternative truths" in this movie are more numerous than beggars in Rome. The video is full of pseudoscience, anecdotal evidence and hear-say. They completely twisted the way human metabolism works. They even said that sugar is not really important in diabetes. According to them, eating sugar is much more healthy than eating any animal-based product.I have diabetes mellitus. I know how sugar affects me, compared to how cheese, milk or (unprocessed) meat affects me. Sugar doesn't cause just one disease. It's the #1 cause of cancer. More dangerous than tobacco. The only chemicals as harmful as sugar are pesticides and food preservatives. So they can repeat their lies to an average dumb viewer, but they can't tell it to someone having the disease.They also claim that Big Pharma has conspired with the meet industry to poison us. Now, there's no doubt that preservatives like E250 used in PROCESSED meat (not fresh) are carcinogenic. They are deliberately put there and approved by food agencies all over the world. Even though there are healthier food preservatives.But he forgot to say that Big Pharma is in bed with the GMO producers too. And with chemical companies producing normal pesticides. They forgot to say that Bayer is buying Monsanto. And it's not the only marriage between Big Pharma and GMO corporations.It's clear that producers wanted to avoid showing bad sides of the vegan diet, and true conspiracies that exist, pushing just one sided agenda, which makes this a propaganda movie.

It pretends to be a serious documentary but in the first 20 minutes their nutritional facts are wrong. They rely 'facts' from non non-peer reviewed studies. Their facts/data on carbohydrate and saturated fat is outdated and disproved before this was even released. Avoid unless you want to listen to someone pursuing their own agenda. The worst thing is that a lot of people could believe this and harm their health. Just because it's a documentary doesn't mean it's accurate or right

WHAT THE HEALTH was a very entertaining documentary specifically aimed at the meat eating crowd and making them realize that their on the road to hell if they keep their diets unaltered. Meat from cows, fish, poultry and dairy foods take the beat. The documentary features what you'd expect from a diehard vegan producer: government conspiracies, health agencies being sponsored by the companies responsible for the junk food you eat, the pharmaceutical industry's perennial blame that they want to keep people "sick" in order to sell their drugs, etc. Most of the evidence is compelling, until the documentary turns into a vegan commercial with testimonies from people who changed their diets and experienced "miraculous" changes in their health. Funny thing is, WHAT THE HEALTH never talks about the veggies you eat, the pestecides they use in farming, the toxic waters used to feed these plants, etc. It's a very one sided view of things. I rarely eat meat. I actually eat more vegetables than processed meats, but I just found this documentary very subjective. I'm sure eating more veggies and fruits will make for a more healthy diet, but if that's so, how did our ancestors survive for thousands of years by eating (at times) raw and uncooked meat?!?!? That's something that's never addressed in this vegan documentary.
