Movies That Matter Presents “Food Matters”

“Let thy Food be thy Medicine and thy Medicine be thy Food.” – Hippocrates

That is the message from the founding father of modern medicine echoed in the controversial new documentary film Food Matters, which will be shown on Tuesday, May 17 at 4:30 pm at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Ephraim.

With nutritionally depleted foods, chemical additives and the public’s tendency to rely upon pharmaceutical drugs to treat malnourished bodies, it’s no wonder that modern society is getting sicker. Food Matters sets about uncovering the trillion dollar worldwide ‘sickness industry’ and provides viewers with scientifically verifiable solutions for overcoming illness naturally.

Filmmakers James Colquhoun and Laurentine ten Bosch focus the film on teaching viewers to rethink their belief systems. The interviewees point out that not every problem requires costly, major medical attention and reveal many alternative therapies that can be more effective, more economical, less harmful and less invasive than conventional medical treatments.

The Food Matters duo independently funded the film from start to finish in order to remain as unbiased as possible, delivering a clear and concise message to the world. This film is sure to provoke some lively post-screening discussion.

Movies That Matter are presented each month by the Social Responsibility Committee of the UU Fellowship. This series is free and open to the public with screenings on the third Tuesday each month. The UU Fellowship is located at 10341 Highway 42 in Ephraim. For information call 920.854.7559 or visit http://www.uufdc.org.
