Forks Over Knives

     In Biology class we watched a movie with a interesting theory. That it is healthier to eat only plant based items rather thatn having a diet with meat in it. this idea was very interesting though because i live on my property and we have cows, chickens, gardens and wild elk. so never have we thought about going vegetarian. this movie showed some evidence that basically says throw out the meat and eat the plants.  So easy enough to say i was very into the movie till the end. 

     In the movie there are some patients with some medical problems. One has a high cholesterol and a high chance of a heart attack.  Two others had serious cases of diabete's and wanted to control there disease  the last was a women with breast cancer that was on the brink of death. The only thing they had in commmon was the cure that was recommended to them. They were all put on a plant based diet. After 5 months for most there diseases were almost gone and most had became a more healthier weight. Even the women with breast cancer who wasn't suppost to live for more that a couple  months back in the 80's still is alive today. Yet all she did was change her diet. With this evidence and lots of research many doctors are starting to resort back to this idea when it comes to some medicale diseases. 

      My opinion of this whole movie is that even though some meat can be bad for you, some of it is good. An example of this is elk. Elk is a meat that is low low in fat, high in protein, and has no chemicals or human produced hormones in it. The meat is 100% natural and good for me and the sole to my believes. I didn't see one person be healthy except the breast cancer patient durring the movie. So maybe instead of generalizing the food that people eat they should of shown the types. Because there is a difference between wall mart steak and a James ranch steak.
