Let's be realistic.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Hungry for Change is informative, educational and motivational. Hungry for Change is great for those who want some tips on losing weight. The central premise is to remember that "you are to love yourself unconditionally" . The movie also enlightens viewers that carbohydrates are not the problem... sugar is the issue. If you need a place to jump start your nutritional journey, a place to realize what is in the foods you eat- a place to realize that that stress can affect your weight then this documentary is for you.The documentary can be the first step on your "journey for a healthy lifestyle".

I don't understand why some people here keep on saying another infomercial. Really? You did not get the point at all? Just because the people in this documentary are authors selling books about health doesn't mean they are promoting their products. Where in the film did they promote it because I want to see.The message is CRYSTAL-CLEAR. CHOOSE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. It's sad that some people fail to see it instead writing a negative review that this documentary gave them BS after 10 minutes. If this film judged the fat people, call them names, and blame their choice of food in an unspeakable terms then I will surely write a negative review. But none of it was delivered in this film. I'm not going to buy a juicer. But after seeing this documentary participated by health experts and medical doctors, I now have a different approach to eating food. I choose healthy lifestyle because I do not want to get sick and pay for high health care costs. It is my choice.

Two stars for some good basic information in the beginning, zero for the rest. Truthfully I didn't even get to the part about juicing. My BS meter also went off in the middle part about the dangers of MSG so I just stopped and did some digging. The only thing I have to add to the conversation is the result of my brush-up on that topic. I'm glad that I did because I had always heard that MSG is bad but didn't know any details. I thought it was a sort of super-salt. In fact it *is* a salt. It's the sodium salt of glutamate. (Thanks to kmtroy for pointing out it's not the same as guanine.) Turns out that compared with table salt it's basically benign. Both are flavor enhancers. The main difference is that the LD50 of MSG is five times that of table salt which means that it takes five times as much MSG to kill a rat than table salt.What surprised me was both the absurd amounts they gave to baby mice. My back-of-the-envelope guestimate says it would be roughly the same as injecting a 150 pound person with almost half a pound of MSG. Imagine being injected with half a pound of table salt! This does seem to cause a lot of obesity in mice so there is a grain of truth there. I'm just surprised those doses didn't kill all of them.Studies on people don't seem to indicate any real problems with the stuff. (Might it have something to do with the crappy foods that get loaded up with MSG? Nah.) Double blind tests on people taking capsules of the stuff didn't show any problems. The part I liked best was one study where one participant who self-described as being highly sensitive to MSG handled it just fine but claimed a reaction to the placebo.Watch out too about Jon Gabriel, the guy trying to paint MSG as poison. Turns out he's not any sort of scientist. He's just a guy out there selling yet another diet book. So I'm not surprised to hear that the movie ends as an infomercial for a juicer. Personally, I'd rather eat all the healthy fruit and stuff than drink their juice. I'm definitely glad that I learned to not fear MSG.
