Review of That Sugar Film (2014) by Mike B — 08 Aug 2015

This film was great! I rented it on iTunes today and although I know that a lot of sugar is bad for you, it is very interesting how a low-fat diet choosing "healthy" options like fruit smoothies/juices, muesli bars etc etc actually contain way more sugar than would expect.

It also proves that focusing on the number of calories you eat is the wrong thing to do, whereas looking at the type of calories or what the calories do to you (eg cause trouble for your liver) is a better thing to focus on.

I feel like I am better equipped to make decisions about certain things that I eat, and also can make some quick, easy changes which will have a very quick positive effect (eg in 2-4 weeks). Anyone with kids would also benefit from watching this film!!
