Yeah the fact that Supersize Me was unironically watched in health classes Across the Nation and maybe the world, as an informational article against obesity is insane to me

It was treated as if it's the everyday environment of what happens if you eat it daily, but it was never explained to anyone that the reason for it wasn't the fact he was eating it every meal it was because he just overall had bad habits. People have attempted to reproduce the results and have failed to do so.

yep, he was abusing alcohol throughout and also went from a no meat diet to eating meat 3 times a day, obviously thats gonna shock the stomach and the alcohol abuse just completely skewed every result
