FOR A HEALTHIER LIFE, “FORKS OVER KNIVES” SAYS EAT A MORE PLANT-BASED DIET
While it won’t vie with “Avatar” as most popular movie of the year, “Forks Over Knives,” a documentary film set for summer release, probably has a more important message. The film features, among a dozen others, T. Colin Campbell, a well-known nutrition researcher who has spoken to our Monday night dinner group in Palo Alto and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, surgeon and head of the Breast Cancer Task Force at the Cleveland Clinic. The message, and a welcome one as far as I’m concerned: “eat your veggies and stay healthy.” Learn more about the film here. Watch the trailer here.
