I really liked game changers, but a few things stuck out to me, the first was the visual they used where they compared blood after a meal with meat vs a meal without meat. They put all this emphasis on how cloudy the blood plasma was in the blood taken after a meaty meal. They didn't explain why that was bad and I couldn't find any information elsewhere on why or even if that is a bad thing. Perhaps cloudy plasma is better?
Second, I found it very dishonest that great pains were taken to show that many advocates and studies of Paleo and other meat based diets were merely the product of bias because "big meat" was influencing them financially. I then discovered that James Cameron and his wife own a pea protein company. Which is one of the main ingredients in meat free "meat". Hmm, they wouldn't stand to gain financially from people going vegan, would they?
Normally, I wouldn't think that would matter too much. But they didn't disclose that and sounds a lot like the pot calling the kettle black.
I think science is pretty settled that we should all have a higher ratio of vegetables in our diet. But humans are unquestionably omnivores so I think Game Changers advocating for a totally animal product free diet is worried more about their ideology and possibly pocketbooks than they are the health of those who watch.
