Description

Call into the show 888-563-3228 I've watched a ton of movies on Netflix in preparation for this episode. Cowspiracy - which explains how much resources it takes to create a cow (acres of land, gallons of water) What the Health - Which shows the benefits of eating a plant based diet (both of these movies are done by the same team). Overfed and Undernourished - Examines a global epidemic and our modern lifestyles through one boy's inspiring and personal journey to regain his health from the inside out. After heartache, Liam Gollé weighing in at over 176lbs turns to his Aunty & Uncle for help, and embarks on a journey that promises to transform his life forever. Vegucated - A movie that shows a few people from different walks of life who attempt to go Vegan for a week. It also has some pretty brutal video of slaughter houses. All These Health Organizations Are on the Take This movie shows how agencies: The American Diabetes Association -  was taking money from Dannon who make Yogurt, Kraft Cheese, Oscar Meyer Processed meats, Bumblebee Foods (all of which contribute to Diabetes), even though American Heart Association The American Cancer Society - was taking money from Tyson (one the world's largest meat producers), Yum! (owners of KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell) Susan B Komen Breast Cancer - Partners with KFC, and Yoplait Yogurt (Studies show Yogurt leads to Breast Cancer according to the movie) The American Heart Association - Takes hundreds of thousands of dollars from meat, poultry, and dairy industry. Taking millions of dollars from the Fast Food and processed food manufacturers Every one of these companies is taking money from meat and dairy companies that make food that are associated with cause of these diseases This would be like the American Lung Association taking money from the Tobacco industry. There is an obvious conflict of interest. When these organizations put out reports, we need to realize who really paid for those reports. Conspiracy Was Almost Shut Down In the movie, you hear how the financial backing pulls out of the movie (for fear of retaliation from the Meat industry?). Obviously, the movie was made. It did a great job of making me a skeptic so I sent an email to the makers of the film who replied back quickly and pointed me to their crowd sourcing campaign that showed how they raised $117,092 They actually raised their goal in six days and ended up with 217% of their goal. The Whole "Planet Thing" I'm not a hippie. I've never hugged a tree, but the math is simple. The population is growing at an alarming pace. The countries that have the most rapid growth are trying to eat more like Americans (meat and dairy), and if we all are like Americans, we would need five four more earths. There simply isn't enough space to grow the feed, to raise the cows, and to dispose of the monstrous amount of poop. So I'm might recycle if it's offered, but that is about as far as I go typically. Hard To Argue with Proof These movies have me seriously considering eating less meat. While I would love to say it's to save the planet, but the truth is when I see someone (in What the Health) who can barely walk using a walker and later after just switching her diet be walking down the street - that's hard to argue with. Another example in the movie had someone who was wheezing when she spoke. She had problems breathing. This was remedied in a very short time and both of them through buckets of pills in the trash But What About Cavemen? I hear alot about the Paleo Diet. Where we should eat meat wrapped in bacon, thrown on top of eggs. There are some places where you can't grow fruits and vegetables, so you gotta eat something to live. A Targeted Plan of Action Seems Like Forever - But It's Not In the movie Overfed and Undernourished we watch a young boy go to live with his Aunt and Uncle who get him off horrible food choices and on to (you guessed it) primarily plant based diet. At the beginning of the movie, he has man boobs (and I thi
