Default "Fat Head" the movie is now on Instant View on Netflix!

Just wanted to let everybody know.

If you don't know about this movie, check it out. It's a low carb rebuttal to 'Supersize Me' and it's got great interviews of Drs. Mike and Mary Eades, Dr. Al Sears, Sally Fallon and Mary Enig in it.

It also has great animations about what carbs do to our insulin levels.

I can't recommend this movie enough!

Yay! I'm glad you'll get to see it now!

(It's also on Hulu, but you have to put up with many commercial interruptions and it's annoying.)

I loved it! Thanks for the heads-up! The guy is funny as he preads the truth (going into his wife to have her explain their sex life?). An easy viewing. And it is on streaming so you can watch it right now - no waiting for DVD delivery.

I bought a copy and loan it out to my friends and loved ones.

Thank you!

We watched it last night. I think it helped give my husband a better idea of what the hell I am constantly rambling about

I saw that and put it immediately into my netflix queue. I rented it 2 years ago and made a copies for several friends, although after one year not one of them have watched it. But I can't recommend this documentary enough, it is fantastic.

Awesome. Somehow I missed its existence entirely until you posted about it. So thank you! We need more stuff like this in the media.

He has some videos on YouTube. He did a lecture that's on YouTube and it says a lot of the stuff he says in FatHead.

Thanks. My son and I watched it last night and we both loved it. He is 13 and wants to get a copy to give to his science teacher because she is going to make them watch Super Size Me in health during their next 9 week grading period.

That's a great idea! It's only fair that they watch Fat Head if they are going to watch Super Size Me!
