TONE
is the author of the international bestseller
The Secrets of People Who Never Get Sick
and the coauthor, with Rip Esselstyn, of
The Engine 2 Diet
. Stone, who has written or ghostwritten more than thirty books and numerous magazine articles, lives in New York and follows a plant-based diet.
The feature film
Forks Over Knives
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. The film traces the personal journeys of Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn as they uncover more and more evidence for the benefits of a whole-foods, plant-based diet, and features several other experts whose findings corroborate theirs, including Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. John McDougall, and Dr. Doug Lisle.
Forks Over Knives
also uncovers the history that led to the modern “Western diet”—high in meat, dairy, and processed foods—and presents the challenges and triumphs of several patients with chronic diseases who benefited by switching to a plant-based diet.
Forks Over Knives
has garnered attention and support from Dr. Mehmet Oz, Oprah Winfrey, Alicia Silverstone, and John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods. Roger Ebert concludes, “The bottom line: I am convinced this message is true. A plant-based whole foods diet is healthy… . The facts are in.”
Forks Over Knives
was created by executive producer Brian Wendel, written and directed by Lee Fulkerson, produced by John Corry, and coproduced by Allison Boon. It was filmed over two years at locations all over the United States and in Canada and China.
Forks Over Knives
opened in the United States and Canada in May 2011.
