What has happened to us? Despite the most advanced medical technology in the world, we are sicker than ever by nearly every measure. Two out of every three of us are overweight. Cases of diabetes are exploding, especially amongst our younger population. About half of us are taking at least one prescription drug. Major medical operations have become routine, helping to drive health care costs to astronomical levels. Heart disease, cancer and stroke are the country’s three leading causes of death, even though billions are spent each year to “battle” these very conditions. Millions suffer from a host of other degenerative diseases. Could it be there’s a single solution to all of these problems? A solution so comprehensive but so utterly straightforward, that it’s mind-boggling that more of us haven’t taken it seriously? FORKS OVER KNIVES examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the so-called “diseases of affluence” that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting our present menu of animal-based and processed foods. The major storyline in the film traces the personal journeys of a pair of pioneering yet under-appreciated researchers, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn.

Shocking, informative and useful!I ordered this documentary just out of curiosity, and ended up watching it twice in the very limited time available on the rental on Apple TV. I found it to be extremely informative and useful. It certainly creates great awareness about the correlation between our eating habits and our health. The key messages are simple and focused on the importance of basing our diet more on foods from plants and grains, and less on meat and dairy products. Anyone looking for alternatives to become healthier in their lives, especially when dealing with many illnesses, should watch this documentary. Thank you!.Score: 5/5

Knives and forksI really had an aha moment with this documentary ... I am sure i will look into this more thoroughly as i also have health issues I need to address...made a lot of sense JWarnell.Score: 5/5

Planting the seed of doubt...Watch "Forks Over Knives" with a prescribed grain of salt. It makes a lot of sense that we are our own worst enemies, when it comes to initiating serious health issues for ourselves through our diet. We've stopped eating for the natuaral purpose of nutrition, and fallen into a vicious cycle of wanting only to conveniently and immediately gratify our taste buds! That said, is veganism the only answer? What ever happened to moderation and balance? Another thing to consider is that the issue of obesity can often be a symptom of depression or trauma. The psychological root of the problem must first be addressed, before any dietary changes should be made. These things aside, "Forks Over Knives" is very valid "food for thought", and softens it's approach by never actually taking a hard line left wing approach. Side effects may vary..Score: 4/5

Think about it..We are the only species that drinks another species milk and the only species that continues to drink milk after infancy.

Dr. T. Colin Campbell (uma referência da nutrição vegana) e Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, analisam o afirmação que a maioria das doenças degenerativas podem ser controladas ou até mesmo revertidas se adotarmos uma dieta a base de plantas integrais.

Pусский
Фильм об исследованиях американских независимых ученых о влиянии рациона питания на вероятность заболеваний диабетом, различными видами рака, сердечно-сосудистыми, аутоиммунными и другими заболеваниями.

Deutsch
Dokumentarfilm, der einen Zusammenhang zwischen hauptsächlich auf Fleisch und Milchprodukten basierender Ernährung und Degenerationskrankheiten wie Diabetes, Krebs und Herz-Kreislauf-Störungen herstellt. Zur Untermauerung wird unter anderem die China-Oxford-Cornell-Studie herangezogen, die über mehrere Jahrzehnte hinweg die negativen gesundheitlichen Auswirkungen der wachsenden Vorliebe von Chinesen für westliche Ernährung verfolgte. Außerdem wird anhand von vier Patienten gezeigt, welche positiven Wirkungen die Umstellung auf Vollwerternährung haben kann.

Français
Le film "La santé dans l'assiette" examine l'hypothèse selon laquelle le renoncement aux produits d'origine animale et industriellement transformés permettrait de soigner - voire guérir, la quasi totalité des “maladies de société" qui frappent tous les pays occidentaux. Aujourd'hui en France 15% de la population adulte est obèse. 60% de la population française a passé le seuil à partir duquel il ne faut pas grossir pour éviter l'obésité et les autres maladies de société. Au cours des 15 dernières années, l'obésité a augmenté de 75%. (obEpi-Roche 2009) Les maladies cardiovasculaires, quant à elles, représentent la 2e cause de mortalité dans l'hexagone. Et chaque année plus de 15 000 pontages coronariens sont exécutés... Le film suit, en guise de fil directeur, l'itinéraire personnel du Dr. Colin Campbell, biochimiste nutritionnel à l'Université Cornell, et du Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, ancien chirurgien de renom à la célèbre Cleveland Clinic.

电影跟踪了一对有创举的但不受重视的研究者--T.柯林坎贝尔博士(T.ColinCampbell,Ph.D.)和卡德维尔埃塞斯廷医生(CaldwellEsselstyn,M.D.)的个人经历。 作为一个康奈尔大学的营养科学家,坎贝尔博士在60年代末关注生产"高质量"动物蛋白质,把它带给那些第三世界的贫穷和营养不良的地区。他在菲律宾时做了改变人生的发现:该国较富有的儿童摄取相对大量动物性食品更可能得肝癌。埃塞斯廷医生是一位顶级手术医生和世界著名的克里夫兰诊所乳腺癌专责小组主任,他发现许多他日常治疗的疾病在世界上极少摄取动物性食品的地区是几乎无人知晓的。当时坎贝尔和埃塞斯廷还互相不认识,这些发现启发了他们去做几项突破性的研究,其中一项是在中国做的,并且仍然是有史以来最全面有关健康的调查,他们的调查导引他们做出一个触目惊心的结论:通过采纳一个纯天然植物性饮食,像心脏病、二型糖尿病、和甚至几种癌症的退化性疾病几乎总是可以预防的并且在很多情况下是可以逆转的.....

Eddie and Jason, two Korean-American brothers get in over their heads when they are called to Korea to make a short film on prostitution and sex-trafficking. Things get complicated when they meet Crystal and Esther, two prostitutes who reveal just how deep the problem goes and set off on a dangerous mission to capture the truth. With the use of hidden cameras and access to pimps, johns, and sex-workers, the filmmakers explore and unravel the complexity of the sex trade in Seoul. They learn that this problem is rooted in issues far deeper than exploited girls and lustful men. Instead, it's a consequence of a culture and government that condones and turns a blind eye to the biggest human injustice of our time.

Using the story of the Red Star Line as a narrative vessel, this three-part documentary by Daniël Cattier and Fabio Wuytack explains why European emigrants left their homes behind for an uncertain future. It details their trips to Antwerp, their travel across the ocean, and their adjustments to their new lives in America. Theirs are intimate yet epic journeys in which past and present merge in the forging of new identities. The film, which is shot on location in Antwerp, New York, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Russia and Ukraine, uses ‘emotional archaeology’ to weave a richer narrative than could be conveyed through a string of facts and figures. And walking in the footsteps of Red Star Line passengers, surprising similarities are revealed to the experiences of modern immigrants.
