There is some evidence behind what the documentary is preaching and provides insight on the “behind the scenes” of the food industry, but it is misleading at many moments and that undermines its overall message and credibility.

When the film talked about chicken, it did everyone a great disservice by failing to differentiate organic, free-range chicken from conventional chicken. The AHA advised people to avoid coconut oil, despite the emerging body of research showing it can provide incredible benefits for weight loss and the brain. This film supposedly exposes the dangers of consuming a diet that includes animal products. The interesting thing about that link is, that topic by topic while trying ot debunk it, it confirms that vegan food is more healthy: "Only 0.4% of these deaths were associated with a high intake of unprocessed red meats, and 8.2% with a high intake of processed meats.
