Fat Head

Fat Head is a 2009 American documentary film directed by and starring Tom Naughton. The film seeks to refute both the documentary Super Size Me and the lipid hypothesis, a theory of nutrition started in the early 1950s in the United States by Ancel Keys and promoted in much of the Western world.

In 2013, Naughton released a directors cut of Fat Head on DVD. It includes some slight reedits, a section at the end of updates in the science in the years since the film came out, and Naughton detailing his familys dietary changes ever since.In Fat Head, Tom Naughton questions the claims and ideas expressed by Morgan Spurlock in the film Super Size Me, in which Spurlock exclusively ate McDonalds food fordays. Naughton, who examines the nutritional information in McDonalds menu, is skeptical of Spurlocks doctors statement that Spurlock was consuming 5,000 calories a day, and is unable to obtain Spurlocks food log from Spurlocks representatives. Naughtons website includes a page that lists every item he ate during his monthlong experiment, including the nutritional information of his diet. Naughton also criticizes his inference from Super Size Me that consumers are unaware that fast food is high in calories, and argues that no one is forced to eat fast food, as fast food restaurants merely cater to consumer demand, and that if fast food restaurants did not exist, people would satisfy that demand by eating the same food at other restaurants or at home. Naughton also questions Spurlocks claim that his 30day diet resulted in signs of addiction, in light of the fact that Spurlock apparently had no difficulty in ceasing eating fast food at the end of his experiment. ........
