Our first documentary, which we viewed in October, was appropriately the catalyst for the beginning of The Blackened Brvnch - Forks Over Knives. 

I was fortunate enough to see a screening of this film in D.C., hosted by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. Ever since, I’ve been trying to get everyone I know to watch it. The film strongly advocates what they call a “whole foods, plant-based diet,” and features the groundbreaking research of Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, which supports that position. And the reason I believe the film is so important, is because of it’s message that our health is something we can control. You are not doomed by your genes. For someone whose family has a scary history of heart disease, on both my mom and dad’s sides, it’s a very important message to hear.

I strongly encourage you to watch it on Netflix, rent it on Amazon, or borrow the DVD from me :)
