After a spokesperson for a fast food chain in the USA claimed that junk food was good for you, a film-maker decided to see if it was true. Morgan Spurlock ate only junk food for a month. He had breakfast, lunch and dinner at the same fast food restaurant every day. If any member of staff offered him an extra large helping , he accepted
At the end of the month he had put on more tham ten kilos and had much higher levels of cholesterol. His liver was in a very bad condition and his doctor warned him not to continue with his experiment
Spurlock said that when you eat junk food, you feel good for a short time but then start to get stomach pains and feel depressed. By the end of his month on buegers,fries,shakes and only an occasional salad, he felt terrible. His film clearly shows the dangers of a junk food diet.
