Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

With a title that sounds borrowed from a promo for the feel- good five o'clock news, It's Not Your Fault You're Fat places the onus of being overweight squarely on our fast-food society. Health and nutrition expert Gary Null weaves together sound bites from a handful of doctors and other authorities. Segments cover fast-food alternatives, fad diets, the "ultimate lifetime diet program" (think cleanse and detox), and exercise. Some of it is old news ("sugar is the feeder of obesity in our society") but much of it is a reminder of the need to individualize programs. Testimonials from real people give the program additional substance, especially one by a still grossly overweight man who's lost what looks like a couple of hundred pounds by embracing "juicing" and moderate exercise. You can't help but think, "If he can do it, so can I." --Valerie J. Nelson

4.0 out of 5 stars GOOD DOCUMENTARY WITH GOOD REALISTIC SOLUTIONS, March 29, 2006

By	Boru Judas Dederich - See all my reviews

This review is from: It's Not Your Fault You're Fat with Gary Null [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This documentary initially discusses all the elements that cause people, especially Americans, to become obese. It provides a solution that should be obvious, but actually the solution presents a great contrast to how our society views exercise and diet. The documentary actually explores this contrast as well.

Complete with case studies, scientific backing, and examples, this has to be one of the more complete approaches to not only losing weight, but also living healthy.

I removed a star because of the title. It actually is your fault that you are fat. When I saw Gary Null in a seminar, that was the first thing he said when he discussed this documentary. However, I got a feeling that he regreted the title...in fact, all other Gary Null products are titled much better.

3.0 out of 5 stars good information but take responsibility for yourself, August 23, 2007

By	N. Reedy "Nurse Nancy" (Lawrenceburg, TN United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I thought this had good nutritional information however it is your responsibility if you are fat to take care of yourself and change the thinking and spiritual distress that is behind your eating patterns. I think the information lacks a spiritual basis and that is the core problem for some fat people. Of course, there are medical and pathophysiological reasons for being overweight too. This DVD can help you with better eating habits and possibly help you decide if you have mental/spiritual problems that lead to overeating and physical distress or just bad eating habits.
