Hey everyone!
I'm in the mood for a health/diet/lifestyle/whatever documentary tonight. I'm up for either something you found informative, or maybe even ones you vehemently disagree with. I like to see the different sides of these sorts of topics.

    King Corn (you tube)
    Food Inc.
    Fat Head (you tube)
    Food Matters (don't agree with everything in this one, but it's worth watching)
    The Future of Food

    and Eat, Fast and Live Longer-the BBC documentary with Dr. Michael Mosley about intermittent fasting
