Description

FAT tells the far-fetched but completely true history of how our country became so unhealthy. In 1970, just over 1. 5 million people had been diagnosed with Diabetes in the United States. Now over 30 million have Diabetes. What's even more alarming is that 100 million people, 1 in 3, have Diabetes or are Pre-Diabetic. This is not to mention the 40% of the population that are obese. How is this possible with the non-stop flow of new diets, exercise machines and our general obsession with health and weight loss? We're as unhealthy as ever. The truth is that we have pretty much had everything completely upside-down and backwards. FAT traces a detailed history spanning 150 years to show how misinformation and outright lies have become "truth. "

I am a research analyst by profession. That does not mean that I know much about this topic, per se, but I do know when someone is making a statement of pure conjecture and one supported by data. I also know when data are supported by unbiased studies, and those where the data may be conveniently fit to the desired conclusion, or when a narrow data set are being used to make broad conclusions. There is a reason why so many peer-reviewed research articles conclude with the line “more research is needed”. By contrast, this video suggests that its explanations are the only real explanations, and all others are faulty or biased. As an analyst, anytime someone says this, I am immediately skeptical. It is intellectually dishonest and presumptuous. This movie is not scientific, plain and simple.

I’ve always been back and forth with Keto and sticking to it as a diet... this documentary is eye opening. This isn’t just a diet, but this is how we should be living. This documentary pushed our mindset onto the right track.. this is our new lifestyle. Wish everyone would see this!

Finally the truth about fat and false nutritional guidelines we have been following for decades and how it relates to diabetes. Go low carb (Keto) to start the reversal of insulin resistance and end type 2 diabetes.

This movie was an infomercial on keto diets with limited actual science. Keto does help many epileptic patients, and can be used to lose weight, especially in the short term. That does not mean that Mediterranean or plant based diets are bad. There is plenty of unbiased science that supports those diets too.
We need to eat less cheap highly processed, low nutrient food and be less sedentary. Problem is, our society makes it challenging to do that. We have known about healthier eating and exercise for decades, but we do not change our lifestyle.

Great doc! My daughter and I loved it!

Great film to educate the masses about exactly what good nutrition is and how we’ve been sold a story that has essentially created a chronic illness epidemic. Take your nutrition in your own hands and watch this film. Thank you for telling us the truth. How many lives could have been saved if the Keto diet had a trillion $$ pharma and food industry behind it. Time for change is now!

I lost 100+ lbs on a low carbohydrate diet about four years ago and found Vinnie’s podcast when I was looking to maintain. Thanks to the ideas I learned there, my entire family has changed our way of eating. Can’t recommend this enough.

Tremendous revelation of the true beneficial nature of fat and the tragic demonization of this essential nutrient.
I can only imagine the innumerable people who will not just benefit but freed from the pop culture gurus.
View it. Research it for yourself. Live and thrive from it.
Thank you, Vinnie and Peter!

Had some problems with some of the content. Folks like Eric Westman and Dave Feldman all the others are awesome. Unfortunately there is Vinny who made sure he is the star of the show. Did he really need to show his stint on the Oprah Winfrey show. I got tired of his me me me all the time.
iTunes should warn about some of the more gross content. I don’t really want to watch bloody surgery thank you.

Don't fear FAT it's the best thing for you. the number of experts and skeptics in this movie do an excellent job of presenting the case of how wrong the dietary guidelines we have been using are totally wrong.

I've gotten so much out of this documentary and Vinnie's long running podcast with so many expert guests (doctors, scientists, science journalists and regular folk who have gone NSNG or keto). The best though is the encouragement and skills to question what we all were told was good for us. The next time somebody tells you "meat is bad for you", "salt is bad for you", "you should only eat lean meats in moderation", "you aren't getting enough heart healthy grains" ... whether it's an office mate, a television fitness guru or your doctor ... question the statement. Find scientific sources that refute or back up whatever the advice. Don't blindly assume. Take control of the information you receive, whatever the source and question it, research it!

This is the kind of film that you can watch as a person who already subscribes to the LCHF lifestyle or as someone who doesn’t yet buy in to it and still really get a lot out of it. It isn’t preachy, just the facts, presented in a way that is very clear and concise. Loved it! My only suggestion is to not watch on a huge TV - maybe use an iPad - because some of the really old historical footage is blurry. Otherwise, chef’s kiss perfection!

Vinnie puts together so much evidence in one powerful film!
I have followed the Ketogenic diet for almost a year. I feel better now at age 61 than I did at age 40. My family is now keto and this is now a way of life for us all.
This film confirms that we are on the right path to health and wellness.
I had the highest honor of meeting many of these folks at our local @LowCarbUSA conference. Their passion and convictions are real and come from a place where their interest is to wake up the masses and help people unlearn the lies we have been believed. Thank you Vinnie for your courage!

Thanks Vinnie T and team for putting this truth out there to how we got to such a poor state of health. I myself changed course just over a year ago to embrace fat and have enjoyed a healthier life. This documentary solidly supports the path I have gone down and I hope others wake up to the truth that surrounds us. Vinnie T, your challenge at the end summed it up perfectly, thanks for putting this out there!

I am someone who truly loves to understand history. The ‘behind the scenes” of things we thought we knew and the stories that have never been told. This documentary provides a valuable missing piece of the puzzle in our history. I am so thankful that this movie was made, excellent job! I can’t wait to watch it again.

Yes, I've been listening to Vinnie since podcast #1.
Yes, I gave a little to back the movie, and yes I bought it.
This movie is everything I've been regurgitating to the family for years. My two fifteen and fourteen year old kids watched the whole thing. Now everything they've been hearing makes more sense.
Even the "yeah whatever" wife paid attention to it.
For me it wasn't anything new, but I got to put faces to the voices I've heard for years.
For the rest of the family, it was an eye opener and an "ah ha" moment.

Finally the truth about Fat!

Wonderfully done documentary about the history of the food industry and how the world has gotten nutrition so wrong. The war on fat led to the rise of sugar and obesity and diabetes. Great science that backs up the current nutrition guidelines and how they are causing obesity. Fat: A documentary is a must watch!
