The Game Changers (2018)

⭐ 8.5/10

(Originally written by Beans)

This documentary is about an MMA fighter looking at some of the best athletes in the world and how their diet either helps their performance or decreases it. Because this one was a bit more recent I thought it was pretty relevant to today. The studies that show athletes on a plant based diet vs a meat based diet was actually crazy. Some numbers were hard to believe.

It wasn’t just athletes and their performances that a plant based diet helps. Every person can improve from this. I don’t know exactly how I feel about completely giving up

on meat but it seems instinctual that we as humans would eat plants and not animals.

There is also always the climate issue too. If we do want to create change the best way to do that is stop eating meat. Some of the stats are devastating; so much land and deforestation is happening to raise cattle. So much water and lakes and rivers are being depleted to appease our appetites. It seems sinful to continue on a meat based diet, but it’s so normal that feels weird to say.

If you’re gonna watch any vegetarian documentary I would suggest this one!
