      Audience Member You almost had me, until "Big Pharma", then I knew what the goals of the movie would be. As a cancer survivor who believes wholeheartedly in lifestyle changes, I also believe in what "big pharma" did to save my life. You can not demonize medications, it makes people take huge risks and lose their lives because they no longer trust science and medication. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Everyone that fighting cancer or at leas knows someone who is should watch this movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member One of my TOP 5 health and food documentaries. Really exposes our issues with this almost epidemic and clearly rising health concern as we battle our "food borne illness" - and are losing. AND a very nicely done documentary/story. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow. What an eye-opener! A simple shift in perspective... instead of looking for a miracle cure for cancer, this film looks at prevention from a whole life approach. They explore our lifestyle patterns as a society and how they correspond to cancer rates. But it doesn't stop there. It also explores what we can do about it in our lives today. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Fascinating documentary with a passionate perspective on cancer ... Help the body heal itself. It was informative and easy to understand how to live a healthier life. Thank you to everyone involved in making this documentary - it is exactly what the world needs to know - the truth about fighting cancer! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member This film is an amazing must see. It's a game changer. Ignorance to your health is no longer an excuse Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
