About this movie

What if most modern diseases are really just symptoms of the same problem? The Magic Pill follows doctors, patients, scientists, chefs, farmers and journalists from around the globe who are combating illness through a paradigm shift in eating. And this simple change – embracing fat as our main fuel – is showing profound promise in improving the health of people, animals and the planet.

Since the beginning of time mankind has depended on a diet consisting largely of plant based foods, fats and proteins with little to no carbohydrates, The relatively recent shift in traditional eating habits has caused a major decline in health globally. The Magic Pill investigates the stories of several patients, many of them sufferers of chronic and severe medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes and cancer, detailing their incredible recovery after switching to a low carbohydrate, high fat diet.

Ratings and reviews

No long term evidence shown which would show increased mortality. Ignores the trans fat in animal flesh. Ignores the fact olive oil is processed and has all fibre removed. Low carb equals heart attacks!

Wake up from your high carb daze and smell the bacon!

Very interesting! Backed by studies!!
