Supersize me


This is an interesting movie produced in 2004, Morgan Spurloc is a guy who decided to eat a whole month in Mc Donald´s in order to demonstrate that junk food is really damaging for people.

Addiction is defined as: “being abnormally tolerant to and dependent on something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming”. There are a lot of people who suffer an addiction to food; it makes them to live surrounded by problems, as low self-esteem and self-confidence.

The Supersize me protagonist got many consequences for eating three times a day this food, for instance he got stomach problems, gained a lot of weight, had some heart problems and began to changed his physical appearance.

Fast food companies can´t warranty people that their products have benefits, they are not committed to inform things right because it might produce a crisis on its finances. Instead now they are focus on attracting younger consumer that little by little become more dependent to eat this kind of food very frequently.

Addictions make body and mind to go beyond their own capacity, emotions and feelings begin to be attacked and it is so difficult to get back. It´s necessary to receive professional attention because try to chance oneself is really hard and not everybody has enough strength to achieve it.

  1. the documentary shows a sad reality. There are many people who, for lack of "time" prefer eating foods high in fat, sugar and artificial flavorings where the only thing they do is give "flavor" to a meal rather than feeding. It is interesting to learn that we have a body to care for and that we should try to eat healthily to help work the best. It is not easy, but it is possible to eat better ... Kattia Ch.

  2. Super size is to me a form to eat exaggeratedly, this occurs much in the USA, because in this country the people are given to eat in great amounts. As it is possible that a boy of 8 years already presents displays obesity problems. It is incredible to where the businesses have arrived to be able to make money enough and the worse thing is than the people of any age are those that pay by this. They remove new high fat products and they eat it to the people.
