Could Meat and Dairy Foods Cause Cancer? | Can Plant Based Foods Reverse Cancer? | Watch What The Health – Full Documentary
FEATURED DOCUMENTARY
What the Health is the groundbreaking follow-up film from the creators of the award-winning documentary Cowspiracy. The film exposes the collusion and corruption in government and big business that is costing us trillions of healthcare dollars, and keeping us sick.
What The Health is a surprising, and at times hilarious, investigative documentary that will be an eye-opener for everyone concerned about our nation’s health and how big business influences it.

What a bunch of crap! MD doctors and all of the so called experts are the biggest reason people are sick and dieing,,, Naturapathic Doctors cure every disease by changing diet, adding vitamins and minerals and keeping people as far away from the quack doctors and hospitals. NO One dies of cancer But everyone dies from CHEMO and RADIATION treatments!!! I have seen it happen to many people i know, they were fine until a quack told them they needed to run some test, then the bad news came,,cancer,,,omg,,, then the chemo and radiation,,, then the funeral!
SAD but true
ND doctors cure illness and save lives, that is what they are trained to do.
MD doctors are trained in trauma, broken arms, bullet wounds, car accidents, thats all, no training in naturapathic medicine in fact they are trained to silence anyone who speaks about it.
Great post!! Everyone should take some time to read this one. It’s so important that we understand the truth our dietary and nutritional beliefs. Food can be our number one medicine.
