Beyond question or debunking: the world-class athletes featured in the film have achieved their successes while on pure plant-based diets.

  Honestly do we need full veganism to make a dent in both Eco-friendliness and personal health ? a bit of meat would be alright and most of the negative of worldwide mass production

  Possible for some vs optimal for most are two different things. There’s also a lot of confounding variables, not to mention PEDs at the top level of most (highly compensated) sports. I wish a plant-only diet was optimal across the board but so far I haven’t found the right one that is the case for me personally.

  That is false. Some of the athletes featured in the movie did consume animal products such as eggs. It's a propaganda piece, not to be taken seriously.

      Nate Diaz is one: ""Speaking about his plant-based diet, the athlete said: "I'm going on and off. "I was a complete vegan for eight years, but I would dabble into some seafood every now and then. "Now, I dig fish."" https://www.plantbasednews.org/culture/athlete-on-off-vegan-nate-diaz-speaks-against-tofu https://www.plantbasednews.org/culture/athlete-on-off-vegan-...

As you shared Rogan's episode 1389 "debunking" The Game Changers, it seems only fair to include the followup episode 1393, which addresses the claims in 1389: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0zgNY_kqlI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0zgNY_kqlI
