Founder of Wellness Engineering and New York Times Bestselling author Jonathan Bailor shares how personal tragedy led him to dedicate his life to finding a better way to eat, think, and live that reverses the causes and symptoms of diabetes and obesity (Diabesity). Featuring expert interviews on-location at Harvard Medical School with Dr. David Ludwig, Dr. JoAnn Manson, Dr. Kirsten Davison, and Dr. John Ratey, along with intimate testimonials of everyday Americans, we see the pain and struggle of the old-fashioned and ineffective "calories in, calories out" model, expose the lies that led to it, and provide a proven, practical, and pleasurable alternative. BETTER culminates in offering a proven path toward better living by introducing revolutionary methods to lower the body weight "Setpoint" through simple, evidence-based solutions that everyone can use to optimize their current diet (ex. keto, vegan, paleo, kosher, halal, etc.) to prevent and reverse many of today's most common diseases.

This documentary is one of the worst ive ever seen. They do reenactments with horrible actors for no reason when the actual subjects could just be interviewed. The entire doc seemed like some ego boost for the main guy. The whole tag phrase is silly. Nothing is new. You could sum up the main points in 2-3 sentences. Eat veggies. Dont eat carbs and sugar. Zzzzzz. I rated this 2/10 because the ego on the main guy is so huge is comical. Its so bad it turns back to good. He starts crying throughout the movie because he figured out carbs are bad. OK i'll stop.

I've always struggled with my weight, which hadn't been a problem in my youth but as I grew older my doctor grew increasingly concerned with my chances of getting Type 2 Diabetes. Blare Media, the production company that produced "BETTER" asked me to produce some illustrations and, while I was paid for my efforts, I benefitted much more from what I learned about how to approach the foods I put in my body. In a short period of time I had dropped 20 pounds. And now have a new perspective on what it takes to live a SANE lifestyle. Special shout outs to Jonathan Bailor and Justin McAleece who guided the production and gave me the inspiration to avoid the complications of Diabetes that was surely coming my way. I can give it my personal endorsement because I actually applied the teachings in the documentary and found them to work. Lose the weight the smart way... and live BETTER.

If you or someone you love has been suffering from "Diabesity" this is a great documentary. You will learn a lot about how to improve your health and lose weight even if you aren't obese and aren't suffering from diabetes. I don't have any of those conditions, but I learned a lot. It inspires me to make Better decisions everyday to improve my health.

While the documentary style of BETTER can a bit to "get into", I was shocked by how little I really knew about Diabetes and its' effects on us. Not only does BETTER draw you in, it provides a Scientific solution to help end the Diabesity epidemic!
