Forks Over Knives ~ Documentary

Just curious if anyone has watched this documentary? My primary care physician suggested I watch it when she was reviewing my daily diet with lap band. You can watch it on NetFlix if you are interested.

The movie is basically research conducted two "food scientists". There is a mention of animal-based food and the connection to obesity, diabetes and other diseases.

I have read the book. Some interesting points brought up. I tried going vegetarian, but I like my meat based protein (poultry and seafood). I am only 3 weeks post op, so when my diet is freed up a bit, I will do plant based protein as well....believe it or not, I am craving edemame (sp?). I believe "everything in moderation." I enjoy poultry or seafood over beef, which can get you burned at the "steak", living here in the midwest! Extremes can get us all in trouble.
