Just finshed watching Fat Head, its going off the whole Supersize Me, definately an actually eye opener and is helpful for those who are dieting or just wanting to look at proper nutrition. Excellent statements, incredibly funny and just down right informative!

Have you seen??

    In case Acg misses this thread...
    Here's what Alan Aragon had to say about it: "Fat Head should be renamed Hollow Head for what it does to people's education of the various topics it butchers. A good way to make knowledgable people want to punch their monitor is have them sit through that raging piece of crap."

    It wasn't even funny.

    I really like that show. It is what my doctor has told me, too: carbs are the enemy, not fat, and our conventional wisdom about fat is all wrong. I "ate right" my whole life, according to the food pyramid, and never lost any weight until my doctor got me on a low-carb high-protein diet.

    If you liked that documentary, you should also try to find "My Big Fat Diet," a Canadian documentary about a village of Native people that cured their obesity and diabetes problems by returning to their traditional diet (again, low-carb and high-fat / high-protein).

    If you're interested in the science behind it, some good info is here:
