- 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.—Jennica Schwartzman
- Imagine BETTER as a Cinematic TED Talk. It is "An Inconvenient Truth" meets Brené Brown meets transformative inspiration. This is not just a food documentary, nor is it just a story of one man's journey to dietary excellence. This is a story of empowerment by every means necessary. It is only by changing our approach that we can change the world. BETTER, examines a new way of eating, thinking, and living presented and endorsed by not only top doctors at Harvard Medical School, John Hopkins, and The Mayo Clinic, but also #1 New York Times bestselling authors as well as keto, vegan, and paleo experts.
Attempting to end the "diet wars," BETTER documents the scientific search for a "unifying theory" of eating and living that everyone can use to optimize their current diet (ex. keto, vegan, paleo, kosher, halal, etc.) to cure not just diabetes and obesity (Diabesity), but also the shame driving the broken and misogynistic diet industry. BETTER then puts this theory to the test by following the Harvard Medical School doctors leading this revolution and features intimate portraits of everyday Americans as they explore ways to decrease the dependence on medications and diets.
While food and health related documentaries have been incredibly popular, none have gone beyond food like BETTER to unpack the trending self-help topics of vulnerability, shame, and body image, as well as offering easy-to-understand whole food choices that make sense. We are excited to share this heart-felt work with the large underserved market that is starving for evidence-based health content that compassionately deals not just with the body, but also the mind and spirit.
