Ok this might be old news, but I just watched Supersize me, and thought that the "Michael Moore" journalism was too much - I was not alone ;-)

Quote:

Whaley ate three meals a day at McDonald’s, just as Spurlock did; however, she only ate until she was full instead of forcing herself to finish everything. Whaley kept her calorie intake to an average of 1,809 calories per day. Spurlock was taking in closer to 5,000 calories on his McDiet.

Similar to Spurlock’s film, Whaley had the help of a doctor who was able to monitor her progress through the entire process. Whaley had never met Dr. Rayner Dickey, of the Holistic Family Health Clinic in Newbury, Mass., before making her documentary film.

"I appreciate his support and help throughout the project," Whaley said.

At the end of her 30-day McDonald’s "McDiet," Whaley had lost 10 pounds and dropped her cholesterol by 40 points. She also lowered her blood pressure.

Although the film only follows her first 30-day McDiet, Whaley also conducted two other 30-day dieting sessions. Her total weight loss over the 90 days was 30 pounds.

Watch the trailer (more like short movie) to Me & Mickey D http://www.fednet.net/asx/CPF/CEI/cei052605.asx

I hope "The Yes Men" are better http://www.theonionavclub.com/yesmen/index...railer=win_300k

I like super size me but Morgan Spurlock is sort of like Michael Moore. He sets out to prove something and constructs everything in such a way that it will happen. Same with his show "30 days" where he does something for 30 days and somehow there is many unlikely and sensational elements.

The one with he and his girlfriend on minimum wage was the worst so far. Going to the ER for a UTI and your wrist hurting? Give me a break.

I caught the one with the 34 year old guy who wanted to "recapture the fountain of youth." Um, 34 years old? Get off your ass you wuss... I'm 40 pounds over where I'd like to be, I'm 39 years old, and I smoke a pack a day and I could have run circles around that wimp.

JR...one comment on an otherwise well thought out post: vitamins come in two different types, water soluble and fat soluble. You are absolutely correct, you can not overdose on water soluble vitamins. The body takes what it needs and rejects the rest. You can, however, overdose on fat soluble vitamins.
http://www.webmd.com/ can provide a list of which is which for anyone interested.
Whether or not this fact has anything to do with the individual on television I don't know.
good point. i should have been more clear. he was given a lot of herbal stuff with purported anti aging benefits in capsules and was taking a ton of pills everyday. i just meant to say that this will put stress on your liver initially before your body adapts to it and generally speaking, taking vitamins and supplements in moderation is generally neither a health concern or danger.

the silly part of that part of the show, was the supposed shock and awe that he "had liver problems" - simply because the doctor called and said some liver values were elevated and wanted to know why. they never really addressed this further in the show - they just sort of left it as if he had undiagnosed liver problems.
