I was video surfing on the Internet.
And I came across a most chilling video of SUPER SIZE ME. A documentary made by a brave soul, who ventured where no one sane would venture.
It documented how a healthy fit man, after eating 3 meals of McDonalds for 30 days, lose his health dramatically, even affecting his psychological state and even his sex-drive during the whole ordeal. It was, I would say a most noble sacrfice for the purpose of this movie.
Documented also was the evolution of the fries & soda sizes: small, medium, large and supersize. And it included plenty of informative tidbits:)
On the third day of the sole MickeyD diet, his body responded against all the junk-food by giving him stomach problems, cold sweats and caused him to throw-up. It didn't stop him from likening it to stopping smoking-he was a smoker. He said that once you're past the third day, you're good!
The physicians and cardiologist begged him to stop his madness. But he perserved on, for the greater good of mankind.
Morgan Spurlock I salute you!
This movie has made me a convert of fast-food.
Quick facts:
Obsesity is taking over smoking as the no 1. preventable death.
Before most children can speak they can recognize McDonald's.
We, consumers spend more than 110 billion on fast food now.
