RE: What Does "Healthy" Mean?
I'm curious if you have any thoughts on that new comedy... I mean documentary "What the Health"

I've heard of it, but haven't seen it yet. Google says it's by the same folks as "Cowspiracy", which I thought was surprisingly well done. I'm trying to keep up on all plant-based diet books and documentaries, so I'll give it a look. What did you think of it?
I've heard and seen enough clips about it to know I will never ever be watching it
Huh...I just watched the trailer. What exactly do you feel is comedic about it?
In the clips ive seen, they claim dairy is racist, no amount of carbs ever can make you fat, chicken causes diabetes, and that vegan blood kills cancer cells
Interesting...
I just watched the trailer and they left all the nonsense out of it haha, my main problems are the lack of science to back up like 85-90 percent of what they claim as well as trying to tell people veganism is the only way to be healthy which just makes people feel like its out of their reach so they dont even bother trying
O.K., well I'm curious, so I'll watch it at some point. If people are using diet to try to be healthy (or healthier), it all depends on what their definition of healthy is and what their goals are. If they just want to lose 10 lbs for their wedding, just about any diet will do. If they want to live as long as possible and be as disease-free as possible until the end, well then yes, the science shows plant based wins hands down. Perhaps people need motivation (e.g., onset of diabetes, cancer diagnosis, heart attack, etc.), good information, and gentle guidance, but it is totally within anyone's reach.
