The Fat Head movie can now be watched online for free!
I first saw this documentary a few years ago shortly after it was released.
It’s kind of a documentary follow-up to ‘Supersize Me‘ by Morgan Spurlock, with very different conclusions.
I’ve used clips from the movie several times in previous articles in relation to:
(1) How insulin stores fat
(2) How the idea that saturated fat causes heart disease came about and why it’s wrong
Here are points from the Amazon.com review of the movie:
- The obesity epidemic has been wildly exaggerated by the CDC.
- People the government classifies as overweight have longer lifespans than people classified as normal weight.
- Having low cholesterol is unhealthy and is linked to cancer, stroke and suicide.
- Low fat diets can lead to depression and type II diabetes.
- The food police, who are now suing restaurants for frying food in hydrogenated oils, harassed the restaurants into switching to those oils 20 years ago.
- Saturated fat doesn’t cause heart disease the research was manipulated from the very beginning but sugars, starches and processed vegetable oils do.

Thanks for link Mark 🙂
Mark bit of the subject I know but did not get a chance to comment on your previous article “Post-Workout Carbs – Crucial or Counter-Productive?”
I would like to ask a question. I have been enjoying the JnR diet and have been taking liquid carbs with my protein post-work shake on trainings days, my question relating to your article is it ok to take liquid carbs with post-workout while doing JnR as you know the carbs in grams is quiet on the high scale? If not when should I take the extra carbs to make up my calories?
Hi Mark,
Thanks for the video upload. Its the bomb 🙂 You are the absolute best nutritional and muscle building GURU around 🙂
Cheers,

Nice share, Mark! I had no idea this film even existed, watching now.
I think ‘Supersize Me’ was more for entertainment… this on the other hand is more educational. I love this kind of demonstrated science stuff!
Thanks for the link Mark. Makes me feel even better about going low carb and gluten free now.
Its almost like the government wants people to be fat, lazy, weak and infertile.
Good movie, bit of a worry. Thanks for the link.
hey mark nice post! quick question. could you tell me everything you would eat on a carb up during MANS? and i mean pretty specific stuff if thats not too much of a bother thanks so much!
Thanks for the no BS nutritional and bodybuilding website…This movie says it all..Fat, lazy, sick and malnourished people are easy slaves…they dont fight back against a socialist government.
