Forks Over Knives

Postby VegEvan » May 17, 2011 7:39 pm

Has anyone seen Forks Over Knives? It's playing across the country right now. I saw it at the Dallas Magnolia Theater with a number of local vegetarian groups in attendance. The film was concerned with the health aspects of a vegan diet while touching on other aspects and focused on the research of T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D. and Caldwell Esselstyn Jr., M.D., two doctors whose research both led them to the health benefits of veganism.

I saw it with my mother, and she was moved by the filmmaker's and others' health improvements on a vegan diet enough to take my stepfather again the following weekend. After watching it, they've both made a commitment to the vegan lifestyle in an effort to improve their health.

I hope you also get a chance to show this to people who may benefit from the information presented in a no nonsense manner about improving health. I hope my uncle sees it who is suffering from multiple cancers. He said he would as it's playing his city, but I have no idea if he'll actually get out to it since he lives several hours away.

I'd post the link, but it seems I've yet to earn that right.
