Reviews

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Yvonne Jodi Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Marie Lou Hungry for Change is a documentary that denounces the Food & Beverage industry, holding it largely responsible for obesity and consequential unhealthiness in the US. It condemns the dieting industry for maintaining the status quo while disguised as a cure.So, how do you lose weight, regain energy and treat any associated illnesses? Hungry for Change promotes the consumption of natural whole foods as the only real solution. The film is not too loaded or soppy (my main complaint with these types of documentaries), and extremely interesting.This film won't come as a revelation for those who are already nutrition-conscious, but it's a great reminder not to fall for that refreshing diet soda anytime soon. I highly recommend the watch to those who have a desire to lose weight and have tried every fad diet without success, for those who feel plain unhealthy and need a change.For a more in-depth summary, check out my article on www.omalou.com!
jeskoog http://www.hungryforchange.tv/first-20-minutes check out the website. if you trust that jack canfield, tony robbins, etc., endorse for the right reasons, then i hope you will ignore the previous reviewers comments which appear to be unfounded and not researched. it's not a 3 day cancer cure. it's a way for people who are suffering everywhere to try economical, healthy, non-cell killing options for healthy living and if they are sick.when you sick, even an incremental improvement is appreciated and often motivates the person to do more.or you can take the pills the $80k a year pharmaceutical rep is actually prescribing since doctors know very little about pharmaceuticals.or you can follow the advice of a physician constrained by 15 minute appts and probably not one of the ~11% of doctors who have knowledge of nutrition -- and enter the vicious cycle that the medical, insurance companies and PHARMECUTICALS are in business to profit from.test your doctor. ask them what the nutritional diet is for the diagnosis they've provided and try that first before taking any prescriptions (with doctor supervision). good luck.Hippocrates said Let food be your medicine. duh.
chimarrao-mate The advice in this documentary is sound advice. Every well known Nutritionist, Sports Model, World Famous Strength Coach, etc. would agree with everything this movie will teach you. I've been living like this 90% of the time for three years, and my health and fitness results have been outstanding.As an add-on to this film, I recommend you also read "The Paleo Diet for Athletes" by Loren Cordain and Joe Friel. When I made the change, I was already in great health, and so I thought. I was having a difficult time getting below 10% BF without loosing all my hard earned muscle mass. Within six weeks, I dropped to 6% BF and gained 2 lbs. of muscle mass. I used bi-weekly visits to the U of U's athletic department to take measurements in their state of the art Bod Pod. On this diet you can maintain a six pack 365 days a year and still gain muscle mass. I know because I have for two years.
fx_man I just saw this movie on Netflix, and I have to agree with the reviewers who have voiced their concern about some of the misinformation present in the film. The agenda of the filmmakers becomes obvious about halfway through, and by the end it does turn into a full blown infomercial for juicing. An activity that has been soundly committed to the nutritional dustbin years ago as questionable at best and quite dangerous at worst.What is ironic is that the interviewees spend much time talking about what is natural and unnatural to put in one's body, then try to convince the unwitting viewer that gulping down glasses of fruit and vegetable juices is natural. Well, it isn't any more natural than eating Twinkies. It results in the same sugar overload delivered by sugary sodas and sweets. Fiber is the natural delivery system of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients found in vegetables and fruits. For example, our bodies are suited to eat an apple or two at a time, not to drink the juice extracted from a dozen or more apples in one sitting.It's too bad, because the film does also provide some good common sense information, though most of that information has already been widely disseminated elsewhere in the past. But since they do include it, and it does provide some contrast to the misinformation, I gave the movie 5 stars. But for someone who is not aware, the movie can be dangerously misleading.
