I had watched this documentary before, and I am still surprised that Morgan Spurlock took the initiative to eat McDonalds fro 30 days. It is horrifying to see what fast food can do to the human body. The United States is known as the most obese country in the world. These food corporations are found all over the country, even in hospitals.
What needs to be understood is that people choose to eat this food ( I am guilty of this). These restaurants are found everywhere, and people head to these restaurants for they are so easy to find. Before he began, Mark took all the precautions with different medical professionals. Just watching him eating the meals, especially the super size meals just shocked me. The super size meals are horrifying. I cannot imagine someone being able to see someone eating all that. Not even Mark was able to eat it all, he got sick from it. Obesity is a serious issue in our country, the documentary stated that obesity is the second cause of preventable diseases, second behind smoking.
What also shocked me was how children are affected by this, especially in schools. At an early age children are lured by these corporations to eat so unhealthy. That is scary to thing that such an early age, people are influenced by these large food business. But seeing the severe health affects the food was having on Mark was truly shocking. What we must understand is that we must understand that seriousness of eating so much fast food and the consequences that come from it. The amount of fast food must be restricted to a certain amount, and we must have active lives in order to be healthy.
