2018 Directed by Louie Psihoyos
From the UFC Octagon in Las Vegas and the anthropology lab at Dartmouth, to a strongman gym in Berlin and the bushlands of Zimbabwe, the world is introduced to elite athletes, special ops soldiers, visionary scientists, cultural icons, and everyday heroes—each on a mission to create a seismic shift in the way we eat and live.

“I guess I won't be eating my fried chicken no more.” -Kenny Stills, Miami Dolphins
After suffering an injury, filmmaker Louie Psihoyos studied athletes who ate a plant-based diet.
It was somewhat similar to What the Health (showing animals as the middle-man to get protein) and Tomorrow (detailing how much water it takes for us to consume red meat).
What sets it apart is that it focuses on successful athletes such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Edwin Moses, Morgan Mitchell, Dotsie Botsch, three members of the Miami Dolphins, Patrik Baboumian, a ton of Tennessee Titans players, Lucious Smith, Nate Diaz, and includes interviews with a geneticist, cardiologist, among other health officials.
Neat facts were revealed such as:
-gladiators were primarily vegetarian
-energy…
the scene where they made the straight men eat vegan and then science proved that all their erections got bigger and they were better at sex... i, a gay vegan, truly LOVE to see it
it’s just so ridiculous that toxic masculinity exists even down to what men eat. stupid.
I'm not an expert by any means, but I have spent a lot of time reading books, blogs, articles, listening to podcasts and watching documentaries on the subject of nutritional health.
In my late teens, I was macrobiotic briefly, and then vegetarian for nearly 10 years. In my late 30s, I was Paleo for around 4 years. I don't consider myself paleo now, but I do focus on a "whole foods" diet that is extremely minimal in grains, entirely free of soy, legumes, vegetable oils, and most nuts, but does include dairy and refined sugar. I try my best to eat GMO-free, mostly local produce, beef and dairy from grass-fed cattle, and eggs from pasture-raised hens. And yes, I do…

🔙 Aquaman 🔙
🔜 Ad Astra (IMAX) 🔜
My local cinema was showing a premiere screening of this movie and I thought I should see it because the names attached to it caught my eye. I wasn't expecting much at all, but I ended up really loving it. I have no interest in anything in the world of sport and I definitely do not enjoy exercise nor do I enjoy vegetables, but I found this to be one of the most interesting documentaries I remember ever watching. It was very well edited, the tone is pretty upbeat so I never felt bored, and it offered a very interesting social commentary on the current state of the environment and the…
Has some good underlying points. Everybody should eat less meat and have a healthy balanced diet based largely on plants. Its good for you and the environment!
Too bad it has to make its point by playing to the male ego with unscientific erection tests, fighters, bodybuilders and strongmen (that we all know use other types of "supplements" to gain muscle mass), and stupid athletes that eat fried chicken or steak for every meal because they think that makes them manlier. There are also alot of crazy claims in there about gladiators and performance and restitution increases that they do not back up with any references.
It's also funny that they attack the marketing from meat food manufacturers (even if they are bad) when this documentary is funded by a company that has heavy financial interests in plant based food sources.
This would be a good and important documentary were it not for the bias, unbased claims and propaganda.
I have yet to see any real argument for eating meat or animal products. There just is none, there is literally no reason not to be vegan. Literally, if you’re vegan you will have a bigger penis...
Brilliant documentary that was never preachy and went down the scientific logical route to explain the benefits of a plant based diet, not just to an individual but also to the environment. Lots of humour as well which I wasn’t expecting.
Hopefully this gets wide distribution soon via Netflix so more can see this.

This is probably the most I’ve ever been personally persuaded by a documentary. Before, I genuinely didn’t think it was possible to get enough protein on a plant-based diet but I’m now highly considering going vegetarian/vegan and am definitely going to trial it for at least a couple of weeks.
packed with pseudoscience and emotional appeals, like most other vegan documentaries worth their weight in gelatin.
does a pretty good job of manipulating its intended audience, story flows pretty well.
1.5 stars
Very good documentary in the vein of "Forks Over Knives" that is inspiring me to not be a Fat Vegan anymore.
as ridiculous as this documentary is, it is the only one that succeeded in making me become 97% vegetarian 😅
Holy SHIT I was being a huge asshole- vegans are definitely onto something. I also watched this instead of studying for my nutrition midterm tomorrow and am now looking up tofu/tempeh recipes 👀
Dá um quentinho no coração documentários com temáticas veganas e de como uma dieta a base de planta contribuí para um melhor funcionamento do nosso corpo em um todo.
