Alison H @AlisonSydney Aug 27, 2026 I can understand some of the reviews that say this is bias and created with the intention of advocating veganism, but in all honestly - this information needs to be shared far and wide for many reasons . We are killing ourselves slowly with all the artificial crap and excess meat consumption that is rife in the western world . We need to be aware of this , as well as how eating well can change your life for the better and the health of the planet . And like it or not that includes eating less meat . A real eye opener . See more Steve J @SteveJarrett Aug 17, 2026 This is a massive advert for veganism disguised as a social experiment on twins. Don’t bother with this. The sheer bias in the program is incredibly frustrating and has me skipping large parts of the attacks on farming and animal products, and adverts for vegan "fake animal" products. The actual study was 22 twins and only 8 featured in this series. It is impossible to tell if the others are cut out because they didn’t want to appear or because their results didn’t back the "be a vegan" story. Even showing the results if you can get thru this there are several fundamental blood measures that are completely ignored, again because likely they don’t back the vegan story. Don’t have an issue with veganism but I do not want to be lied to or have it shoved down my throat whilst pretending to show a diet / exercise study of twins. See more Eric V @eavega Jul 6, 2026 The premise is fascinating, by taking on biological questions using people who are biologically as similar as you can get. Its a shame that the bias towards plant-based diets is made so obvious that it almost feels like they are cherry-picking statistics and results to prove their intended point. Additionally, the added content vilifying animal-based protein in favor of plant-based nutrition clearly reveals the intent of this 'documentary'. While there is a lot of benefit in increasing the plant-based content of a person's diet, the bigger message should've been that balance and smart choices are the way to go. They constantly bring up the evils of meat, but specifically only mention processed meats and highly processed foods. At the same time they ignore the fact that so many of the plant-based protein products are produced in a lab and are so highly processed as to basically be a chemistry experiment. See more scott F @RT06665851 Apr 27, 2026 The "identical twins" premise is compelling, but the series is more about advocacy thank science. The bias is overt, relying on alarmist environmental claims and sensationalized segments (such as the arousal testing). From a health standpoint, the show selectively highlights vegan supporting data while glossing over significant issues like the loss of muscle mass in that same group. By comparing a monitored plant-based diet to a mediocre omnivorous one, the "results" feel engineered rather than discovered. This series is simply a commercial for a specific ideology instead of a balanced documentary. See more Miranda N @Miranda742 Dec 23, 2025 You are what you eat documentary it’s so bad. The information they provided is outdated, the whole experiment it’s clearly biased and basically it’s full of propaganda. I do NOT recommend this… See more Rushi P @RT93650561 May 15, 2025 Worth watching the series and hoping that creators will continue making these kind of informative shows See more Read all reviews
