Forks Over Knives - Official Trailer

[ktlight]

"The feature film Forks Over Knives examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting our present menu of animal-based and processed foods."

I can't see the video, so not sure about how they discuss meat. I can tell you that it has been demonized and in some context well deserved. Most meat consumed today is corn fed. This ruins the fatty acid profile, ensuring way too much Omega 6 fats. These are very inflammatory. Also, most meat is factory-farm raised, so expect certain doses of anti-biotics, hormones, and other chemicals. Grass fed meat, on the other hand, is quite healthful. It's fats are correctly balanced to prevent the inflammation that is the cause of many "diseases". Further, much meat is processed and contains smoke, nitrates, and chemical water fillers (Like paying $7 a pound for water and chemicals?). These processed meats will cause colon cancer!

Moderate amounts of grass fed, clean meat are essential to good health, period!

Okay I apologize again because this will be another one of my antagonistical posts. But I have to say something.

Films or information like this is more propaganda and part of the “global controllers’” war to tighten the vice grips a bit more.

I agree our diet is out of control and obesity and disease is growing exponentially and I agree that processed foods and meat consumption plays a role but the very carefully constructed LIE is so is the vegan and vegetarian diet that is being promoted.

Always Always ask yourself what is the story behind the story and what is the ultimate agenda. Do the elitists want us to be healthy and strong? Or do they carefully analyze and manipulate every aspect of our lives and current trends??

Do you not think that they have every possibility covered and are putting strategy in place to control every avenue??? Think People!! They are MANY steps ahead of us.

Please understand when I lived in Kansas I owned and operated a 75 acre organic farm. We grew a wide range of heirloom organic vegetables, fruit, and grain crops. We had raw goat and cow milk and grass fed bison and meat chickens. More than half my customers were vegetarian and vegan . . . . so I ultimately do not have anything against anyone who chooses this type of diet and lifestyle.

This film clip said nothing about choosing organic locally grown food. Already massive global farms are taking over the vegetable production and pushing out the small organic grower. ONE example . . . . the sweet corn we grew (20 to 30 acres) was an old standard type. A 50 pound bag of seed in 2006 cost $276, the last year we planted (2009) the same 50 pound bag cost $525. It is impossible to make the bottom line work to make a profit with these prices.

ALL vegetable varieties are already being Genetically altered to be able to withstand the pesticides and herbicides.

Bottom line . . . . very soon and I mean very soon . . . . . everything we eat will be genetically altered (GMO) and THIS my friends is what is killing us and keeping us controllable and manipulated and SICK.

Support a local organic grower and by all means LEARN to grow your own food and by all means SAVE YOUR OWN SEED.

I looked briefly a bit more about this film and several things jumped out at me.

It stresses meat consumption and it being primary reason for illness and disease. And it largely concentrates on the US consumption verses consumption in China or Japan.

Why is it that no one brings up or thinks about that just a few short years ago meat was a huge mainstay of our diet. Fresh vegetables were hard to get in the winter especially before “shipping” from all parts of world. Meat either raised on the farm or hunted was mostly all people had to eat through the winter and then it is well into the late spring before fresh greens and vegetables were available.

So what has changed??? Genetically Modified (mutated) Organisms GMO food.

I have no doubt that the meat we consume is killing us today . . . .WHY . . . because the animals are grain fed and the grain they eat is GMO. Corn, soy beans and wheat, sugar beets, canola etc is ALL genetically mutated and it is in everything. And as I said in other post so are and will be all our vegetables.

Side-Note: have you even noticed that sugar tastes a bit different and feels different?? This is because most of our sugar now is from sugar beets, which are 100% gmo. If is does not say “pure cane sugar” don’t eat it. The other sweetener high fructose corn syrup is in just about everything . . . corn is now 100% gmo.

Why are we not seeing as much illness and disease in China or Japan ????

Very Simple. . . . .they have not allowed GMO seed or plants to become rampant within their growing systems

PERIOD.

The elitists or controllers don’t care whether you are a meat-eater, vegetarian, vegan or anorexic . . . they have it covered. The nutrition and healthy benefits in almost all food has been systematically altered to cause diseases and illness . . . .
