Not so impressed with this movie ...

I just started to watching this and have been reading up on nutrition for a few years now.

I just heard the Gerson woman say plants need 52 nutrients, elements, to survive.
She mentioned the ones everyone knows about manganese, zinc, etc ... but she did not
mention anything else "controversial", and just waved her hands at the best of them saying
"and all the ones I can't mention".

The point is that no one has every shown that plants need more than 18 nutrients.

Macronutrients: used in large quantities by the plant
Structural nutrients: C, H, O
Primary nutrients: N, P, K
Secondary nutrients: Ca, Mg, S
Micronutrients: used in small quantities by the plant: Fe, B, Cu, Cl, Mn, Mo, Zn, Co, Ni

1. Carbon
2. Hydrogen
3. Oxygen
4. Nitrogen
5. Phosphorous
6. Potassium
7. Calcium
8. Magnesium
9. Sulfur
10. Iron
11. Boron
12. Copper
13. Chlorine
14. Manganese
15. Molybdenum
16. Zinc
17. Cobalt
18 Nickel

This, I call it a scam, to unnerve people by telling them that plants need so many
nutrients that the soil has been depleted of is to sell things like Azomite, that has
ground up rocks with traces of everything in it. Things like lead and uranium,
trace amounts.

But, why pay for and ship stuff like uranium and lead when plants to do not need
it, in fact it is toxic? It is very cheap to crush rock if you do not have to refine them
to get the really good stuff out of them, then bag it, sell it, and even charge people
for shipping heavy elements through the mail or freight. It is a scam.

When a movie does not vet something like this, or it does vet it and decides to go with
the nonsense, unproven, unscientific storyline, I have to think it is not that good of a
movie. It is being funded and pushed by someone just like the corporations are pushing
sickness, as they claim. It's hard to find something that is NOT a scam i think.
