$24.95

Carb-Loaded is a documentary film examining the reasons behind the enormous spike in diabetes and obesity over the last three decades.

Produced by Lathe Poland and Eric Carlsen. The film will explores the exploding diabetes epidemic. Not by coincidence, Lathe was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2010. He always thought of himself as a healthy eater. He rarely ate sweets, never drank soda, and had no family history of diabetes. Why would a seemingly healthy thirty-something like Lathe get a disease like this? The misconception that he had, like many people, was that diabetes is either hereditary and it’s not your fault, or you eat junk food like it’s going out of style and you end up diabetic.
