FREE COMMUNITY EVENT: DOCUMENTARY FILM "FORKS OVER KNIVES"
February 11, 2:30pm • Stone Tower Adventist Church
Forks Over Knives Documentary Feature Monica Beach Media; Directed by Lee Fulkerson Rated PG; 90 minutes; 2011
Despite the most advanced medical technology in the world, we are sicker than ever by nearly every measure. Cases of diabetes are exploding, especially amongst our younger population. About half of us are taking at least one prescription drug and major medical operations have become routine. Heart disease, cancer and stroke are the country's three leading causes of death, even though billions are spent each year to "battle" these very conditions. Could it be there's a single solution to all of these problems? This film examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting animal-based and processed foods. Stone Tower Adventist Church is located at 3010 NE Holladay St., Portland, Ore.
