Just finished two great documentaries. One is called Forks Over Knives and the other was Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead. The first is a scientific look at the ability we have by making the right food choices to avoid and/or reverse some very serious diseases. These are the big, scary ones that most believe are dealt to us by fate in our genes, namely cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. How empowering to know that we are not at the mercy of some cosmic roulette wheel, but we hold the key to our own health-and wouldn't you know...it's shaped like a fork!
The second chronicles the journey of two men as they basically put the research above to the test in the real world. The two movies are done completely independently of each other, one several years before the other, but follow the same type of food regime. They are both based on a whole-food plant based diet. The results these to men see in their lives and share with us are nothing short of miraculous.
I am inspired!!!
