There are many new documentaries on plant-based diets, or covering why adopting one is a great choice for animals, your health, the environment… or all three. Here are a few new documentaries being released, or have already been released, this year.
EATING YOU ALIVE YEAR (2016)
Eating You Alive is a feature-length documentary revealing the truth behind why Americans are so sick and what we can do about it and how we can change the course of our health. Through sweltering heat, rain, snow, sleet, wind and dust storms, the Eating You Alive team traveled across the country capturing interviews with the most brilliant medical minds, Hollywood talent, gourmet chefs, passionate bloggers and transformed people from around the world. The purpose? To produce a film that informs and inspires as many as possible that our health, the health of our planet and the creatures we share it with, is within our power to change – one bite at a time. — Via eatingyoualive.com
