Not bad... Great film with a cool way of delivering the information, however, what I got from the film was pretty limited. Most of the facts I already knew (I feel like most people would also). The film portrayed 'fructose' (the natural sugar from fruit) as the evil sugar but then promoted our kids eat more fruit and veg in the films conclusion. There was also very little discussion on the dairy sugar 'lactose'. Probably the only thing that really stood out to me was the statement of us juicing fruits into a perceived healthy drink, when actually all we are doing is concentrating sugar or the fructose. Overall, i'm glad I watched it, I also bought the book (special at Kmart) , but wouldn't bother watching it again.

Awesome film, after seeing this you surely can not be ignorant anymore when shopping. The clear message: eat as much fresh and unprocessed foods as possible and drink water 😊
