Excellent adaptation.
Don't listen to the negative reviews
Absolutely the worst movie.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
This documentary starts out slowly but keep watching. Nelson Cambell will take you on a journey you will not soon forget! The ending will blow you away. My husband and I liked it so much that we bought a copy to share with friends.
PlantPure Nation combines scientific information from authors of peer-reviewed publications and NY Times bestsellers, Prof T Colin Campbell and Dr Caldwell Esselstyn, with heart-warming stories from the Campbell family at the centre of the film. More emotion flows as the Campbells, Dr Esselstyn, and their allies in Kentucky seek to get legislation through the state's legislature, and then turn their attention to a research based, community driven initiative to persuade people to move towards a tasty, whole food, plant based diet. I can't wait for the sequel!
Colin Campbell's work has been thoroughly discredited, here's a summary from almost 6 years ago: (Chris Kresser: "Rest in peace, China Study") BUT they're still pushing this nonsense.The opening sequence Demonizes Paleo and low Carb diets with nothing to support it, they're just preaching to vegan choir who is already anti animal food for whatever vague religious reasons, not for health. Going vegan is not the only alternative to SAD. I don't think strict Paleo or VLC are the best alternatives either, but unfortunately many people seem to think that the only way to fix a problem is by going to one extreme or another, the idea of balance incomprehensible for them I guess.And they show the mother who was sick and obese on SAD and blame that on any food that came from an animal when the real reason was refined seed oils, refined sugar, and refined flour with iron enrichment. It's well documented that iron over load causes every metabolic disorder that are epidemic in today's society: obesity, high blood pressure and diabetes.If you don't want to eat animals based on your vague, made up religious ideas then go ahead, just don't try to force your agenda on the rest of us with FAKE SCIENCE. This is just disgraceful, you people should be ashamed of yourselves.
This film is a wonderful testament to the power of a whole foods plant-based (WFPB) lifestyle to prevent or turn around the ravaging health effects of the standard American diet (SAD) centered around meat and dairy consumption. People across the globe are becoming aware of the impeccable science that Dr. T. Colin Campbell and many others have set forth to guide us as we make our future nutritional choices. As with the tobacco debate twenty years ago, Nelson Campbell demonstrates in this film that there are powerful political and financial interests vested in keeping the status quo of ever more sick and debilitated citizens. Of course, the transition to a WFPB lifestyle will require seismic shifts in our world's economy – but all to the betterment of human, planetary and animal health. As they say, "The truth is a stubborn thing – it does not go away".
