In 2006, broadcast journalist CJ Hunt and his team began the final phase of a 10-year effort, "In Search of the Perfect Human Diet TM", an unprecedented global exploration to find a solution to the #1 killer in America - our growing epidemic of obesity and related chronic diseases - such as diabetes, hypertension and heart disease.

This investigative documentary bypasses common contradictory dietary bias and the recycling of confusion by filming interviews and explorations with many of the world's top scientists and researchers in the fields of archaeological science, paleo and forensic anthropology, nutrition and metabolism, biomolecular archaeology, and the emerging field of human dietary evolution.
"Nearly 400,000 of our friends, families and loved ones are dying each year simply because we are more confused about what's right to eat than any time in our history. That means in ten years, four million more will be dead from largely preventable causes; to me, this is unconscionable. With conflicting messages from the government, trade industries, and diet gurus surrounding us, we really don't know what to do, or who to believe. Clearly, finding the perfect human diet is one of the most important quests of our time. And the time to do it, is now."
