To get the word out about this wonderful documentary I have started sharing the Diet Doctor Facebook post from earlier this week.
Maybe if I share it often enough a friend or two will check it out. One can only hope!!

It was wonderful-my husband was so upset watching it. I am hoping it spurs him toward keto woe.
Macadamia Fat Bread
This is the recipe from the woman featured in the film.
Just watched it last night - must have just been added to Netflix in Australia.
I forwarded it to my Father and his wife as well as my niece and nephew (the latter two want to try keto for a number of reasons). My Fatherâs wife responded in about an hour with nothing but contempt. When I asked her if she watched it all (which she obviously hadnât as itâs an hour and a half) she didnât answer, only stated that it was a bunch of lies.
I let it go. People with closed minds.
Yep, asked my parents to watch it (dad has stage 4 lung cancer) and have gotten them several books and cookbooks. Not much of a response. I am seeing them tonight and maybe they will ask questions I guess we can lead the horse to water, butâŚ
Thatâs too bad. Itâs hard to help people when they wonât open their minds to new data.
YeahâŚmy Dadâs been thumbing his nose at it for weeks. Last time I ran into him, he said I looked older (guessing a fatter face hides more wrinkles) - also accused me about being obsessed with this (Iâm a little obsessive by nature). Said I should give it a rest for awhile as losing too much weight too fast isnât healthy. Told him my doctor was thrilled with the results and he just uttered âFine!â and walked away.
I think we need to get someone like Oprah to go Keto to get all of these closed-minded couch potatoes to actually listen.
Some people will stick with what they believe to be right even when other people show them that they are completely wrong. I canât explain it.
I know of some people whoâs diets are killing them, literally. They think theyâre eating healthy because thatâs what theyâve been told is healthy, for many years. And thatâs what theyâre going to do even if it kills them. After all, there are doctors who have told them so.
It is sad. Many will agree that youâre doing something good for you but wouldnât do it for themselves despite seeing what it does for you. Some will say youâre killing yourself and will spit venom at every opportunity despite no evidence at all, only something like âtheir doctor saidâŚâ And then there will be a very few who will actually entertain seriously what youâre doing, may even try it for themselves. Unfortunately, the last group is usually pretty small.
Yeah, I know my Fatherâs on a myriad of medicationsâŚI havenât been pushing it, but answering any questions that he may have. Wish I could get him to listen. Itâs just a matter of time until he has a stroke or a heart attack. (and all of those meds have to be killing his liver and kidneys). sigh
At least my niece and nephew are going to try it (and I have a lot of recipes to help them on their way) Hopefully they both sign up here as well. This communityâs pretty damn awesome!!! :)
Yes, it is! Iâve tried out various Facebook pages and there are a lot of real wackoâs out there. I think this group is by far the most friendly and civil group Iâve ever been a part of. No, we donât all agree on everything, but itâs usually very civil when it comes to disagreements and itâs rare to see any substantial personal attack. Lots of good people here and I really appreciate that.
me as well! Iâve been Keto for about a month, around this forum for just a handful of days. Connection keeps me feeling supported and encouraged. Reading that others are on similar journeys and sharing experiences is quickly becoming a vital part of my total plan.
Caught the documentary last night and couldnât wait to ready what you all thought of it! Loved the mindful connection to our food and our earth.
You may want him to watch the Fasting Cure on Prime. The first half seems a little out there because it is about this Russian sanitarium where people go to fast. However midway they talk about fasting as an adjunct to Chemo and other treatments for cancer. I wish I had known about this when my beloved mother in law (you read the correctly, I adored her!) was struggling with lung CA
Thank you so much for the tip! I will let him know itâs out there for him to watch. I just relistened to the Thomas Seyfried podcast and itâs so frustrating that this info is out there if people would listenâŚ
Strange I have prime and I couldnât watch it on there, did manage to on Netflix though!
What country is it on Netflix? (the fasting cure)
Not on either Netflix nor Prime in Canada.
Based on her saying itâs about a Russian health place, I believe she means âscience of fastingâ which is on prime
Not finding that title on either Netflix nor Prime in Canada either.
(would actually help if you said which country it IS available) I might be able to use my VPN service to âtravelâ to that country.
