About this product

Product Information

In this hilarious yet informative documentary, debut director Morgan Spurlock makes himself the victim of a cruel experiment: he puts himself on a 30-day diet of nothing but McDonald's food. Eating three meals a day exclusively from McDonald's, Spurlock's health quickly deteriorates. The film documents the process from beginning to end, with Spurlock and his doctors making observations and monitoring the changes to his energy level, moods, liver and kidney function, and obviously his weight. As viewers might predict, Spurlock gains weight at an alarming rate, and during this process he offers a shocking lesson about the serious problem of obesity in America. Clearly McDonald's receives the brunt of the blame, as Spurlock shows how the fast-food restaurant directs its advertising at small children, who are converted into faithful consumers of the brand--and its free toy giveaways, bright colors, and Ronald McDonald clown--for life. Spurlock also examines the quality of the food itself, showing the processes by which favorite products like McNuggets are made. He also shows the proliferation of McDonald's chains both in the U.S. and worldwide. Meanwhile, Spurlock's girlfriend--a vegan chef--observes Spurlock's experiment with disgust and disdain, providing one of many comic elements to the film. Educational, fun, and at times downright gross, SUPER SIZE ME takes a different approach to illustrating America's obsession with fast food.

    Engineered food

    I am walking evidence of just how destructive the garbage sold at fast food chains can be on the body. Since passing by the drive-through windows and exercising moderately, I have lost 70 pounds in less than one year, no longer take any of the three blood pressure medications I had been on, and just feel a whole lot better. People may think the movie is extreme, but it is a wake up call for anyone struggling to lose weight and improve their health and quality-of-life.

  • Every time he was asked to super-size a food order ( 9 times ) the participant did just that!

    This documentary involved a young man who ate nothing but McDonad's fast food for 1 month to determine what effects this diet would have on his health. He was tested, periodically, for 6 to 8 health values and these values became worse, each time he was tested. The end results had all 3 doctors, involved, shocked and very concerned. Interviews with different Food organizations, school districts and on-the-street interviews with individuals gave more context to this documentary.

  • If the truth were known

    Every one on earth should see this DVD, because we need to pay attention to what we eat, especially fast food. High fat, sugar, and salt will lead to death from the kitchen. Most folks don't have a clue that they are doing the wrong thing, and most likely don't want to know. If it tastes good that is all that counts. That is my take on Super size me

  • Should be required viewing

    This should be a MUST for every school kid and every adult. It's a well planned, funny, educational lesson in the value of eating well. It will be enjoyed by a wide range of age groups. If people paid attention to the valuable information in this film, many would need NO healthcare because they'd be HEALTHY and not fall prey to the AMA and their dangerous "FDA approved" toxins.
