The Low Fat Diet Is Genocide | Fat Fiction | Full Documentary | Free | Documentary Central

I wrote a paper in one of my nutrition classes (I'm a Dietetics student) where i had to answer the question, " which is a healthier option, margarine or butter?" And of course explain why I choose my answer. Well I chose butter and I did A LOT of research on what margarine is and how is made. I summed it up by saying that butter is less processed and choosing grass-fed butter has the healthy omega 3s & 6s, vitamin D, etc... and the sat.fats in butter are not the same as the sat.fats found in deep fried foods because those are usually fried with an oil that has trans fats. And also that there is a difference between natural trans fats found in meat & animal fats and the ones in junk food or "man-made trans fats." My professor was so impressed with my research, she wrote in her comments that students would usually argue for margarine being healthier because that's what our textbook says but it's not her belief. Unfortunately she can't teach what she REALLY thinks. I guess she is forced to teach what is in the textbooks. And of course she gave me an A 😃

"I dont think this was anyones intention". My Dear,, You dont understand human greed or evil.

In my early 20s, the Atkins diet was trending. I tried it out and got to the smallest weight of my adult life, and I felt great. I ran my first marathon. The night before the race, I went to a carb loading dinner. I felt so uncomfortable afterward I had to walk back to my hotel. After that, due to peer pressure and my mother nagging me on how I was eating, I caved and went back to "normal" eating. I had become so accustomed to eating a high fat, high protein diet that when I added carbs and sugar back in, I put on over 130 lbs. This year, I am getting back to cutting out carbs and sugar, and I couldn't be happier about it.

3 years after cleaning out my pantry of 75 lbs of prepared foods in a box or a bag, and stopping all seed oil consumption, I see the woman in the video doing the exact same thing! I went from 215 pounds to 165. Never felt better at age 70.

The brain is primarily fat and cholesterol so you'll never convince me a low-fat diet doesn't contribute to the risk of alzheimers

The saddest thing about the food pyramid is the mistake was deliberate. There’s always money to be made when people get sick. 😢

Boy I've been duped my whole life. I've spent 50 years feeling guilty about loving meat and dairy. Funny thing is, I never stopped eating it, and I'm 65 and in perfect health.

Low fat, high sugar, next to no quality protein, sounds like a recipe for low manufacturing cost, long shelf life and big profit margin for corporates who really don’t give a stuff about you or your health.

I'm old enough to remember when EVERYONE knew that you only got fat by eating too many biscuits, potatoes, pie and crackers. The mess we're in really is about one thing...MONEY

My grandfather ate eggs and bacon every morning until he died at the age of 97. He was doing something right.

This is one hell of a Documentary, Thanks to all of you who were involved in the making of this.

I had an epiphany today after watching this. I was comparing the ingredients of a stick of pure 100% butter and a tub of olive table spread. The butter had 1 ingredient and the olive spread had about 10 ingredients (some nasty or dubious at best) and not even that much olive oil in it. The scariest thing is the butter had a 0.5 health star and the olive margarine spread had a 3 health star rating. The total corruption and total misunderstanding of our foods and food industries was so striking to me at that moment.

26:20 absolutely true. I'm not French, but both my father and mother in law are, and they eat well into their 90s an extremely fat diet, and they are still quite thin and active. Since going to the doctor is free here, they have check ups every 6 months and are in great health for their ages. It's really a wonder.

I’m only 47 minutes in but it’s irritating how willing people are to give the government the benefit of the doubt and say that they meant well. BS. It’s called managed decline - they’ve been orchestrating it throughout our society. Our health is only one aspect.

Worst lie you can hear: “I’m from the government and I’m here to help you.”

Ive lost 35 pounds in the last year...while I didn't use a keto diet myself, I did cut out added sugar, pasta, fast food, and bread. I exercise for an hour 6 days a week, and I eat a lot more fiber and protein than the year before. Just have to find what works for you and stick to it

Beef, bacon, butter and eggs ...salt and water ......18 months now and will never go back

This is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen regarding genuine low carb, high good fat diet. This is certainly made with all seriousness towards healthy heart, healthy food, overall healthy life style for all in the world. This is truly worth watching and following by all world over. Kudos to the makers of this documentary for their altruism.

In my humble opinion, the main problem isn't nutritional science or even the food industry. The main problem are nutritional scientists that can't admit that they are wrong. It is OK to be wrong, but it isn't OK to be wrong and close minded. If the low fat people just looked at the science and were willing to change their minds, we would be a lot healthier today.

I went from 250lbs to 175lbs. I also had "irreversible" stage 5 kidney failure put on dialysis and a transplant waiting list. Animals and fresh produce, low carb diet reversed my stage 5 kidney failure, got me off dialysis 4 years later. Do your research folks. Find people who share their stories and ask questions.
