I saw an amusing film the other day - "Fathead" - with a message on nutrition. Do you recall "Supersize Me!"? It featured Martin Spurlock, who spent a month eating at McDonald's, gaining a lot of weight. Despite appearances, this was not a very scientific experiment, even allowing for its limited population study and humour! Apparently, there was some cheating going on........
When comedian Tom Naughton saw it, he determined to make another film, giving a fairer view. His aim was to lose weight eating at McDonald's for one month. Was he successful? How did it affect him? See it on Netflix.

As a result of making this film, Naughton became so incensed by the current misinformation in nutritional science, that he went on to write and deliver some well-informed lectures about science, to the public. Follow links to his website.
