Film salon, " FORKS OVER KNIVES" (Healthy Eating vs. Surgery!)
Film Attacks Heart Disease as "Toothless
This film salon examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the so-called "diseases of affluence" that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by diet and lifestyle changes. The major storyline in the film traces the personal journeys of a pair of pioneering yet under-appreciated researchers, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn." ("Diseases of affluence" include heart disease and related cardiovascular diseases and risk factors such as diabetes and obesity.) This is a free screening.
