A little thought

I agree that eating more fruits and vegetables and an active lifestyle are good for health, but the evidence of the link between meat eating and cancer and heart disease is not explained in detail and is not very convincing. I searched for casein. The paper in the film does not indicate that the animal based diet is carcinogenic ( http://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/abcs-of-nutr ).
I like the movie that pointed out the misguided guidance of the pharmaceutical factories and the food industry to popular food, and seeing the animals in the movie being treated badly by the factory also made my heart tremble.
My take away is a plant based diet and exercise is undoubtedly good for the body, but I am skeptical of the connection between meat eating and cancer and cardiovascular disease.
