Planeat

Conscious Cinema – Planeat

Directed by Or Shlomi

Planeat is the story of three men’s life-long search for a diet that’s good for your health, the environment, even our planet. Along with pioneering chefs and some of the best cooking you have ever seen, the scientists and doctors in the film present a convincing case for the West to adopt a plant-based diet. The documentary features the ground-breaking work of Dr. T Colin Campbell in China exploring the link between diet and disease, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn’s use of diet to treat heart disease patients and Professor Gidon Eshel’s investigations into how our food choices contribute to global warming, land use and oceanic dead zones. Informative and encouraging, the film shows how the problems we face today can be solved, without simply resorting to a diet of lentils and lettuce leaves.
