The truth about trans fat | 60 Minutes Australia

 



Synopsis | The Hidden Killer (2010) Think about what you've eaten today. If you've strayed too far from the dietary straight and narrow, there's a fair chance you've consumed something called Trans Fat. Trans Fat is every bit as nasty as it sounds. It's a toxic, man-made chemical used to increase the shelf life of food. As far as fats go, it's the worst of the worst. It's been banned elsewhere in the world, but here in Australia it's in everything from fried food to biscuits, clogging our arteries and contributing to appalling level of heart disease. The question is - why is something so bad for us still on the menu?

FAT: A Documentary (1080p) FULL MOVIE - Health & Wellness, Diet, Food

FAT tells the far-fetched but completely true history of how our country became so unhealthy. In 1970, just over 1.5 million people had been diagnosed with Diabetes in the United States. Now over 30 million have Diabetes. What's even more alarming is that 100 million people, 1 in 3, have Diabetes or are Pre-Diabetic. This is not to mention the 40% of the population that are obese. How is this possible with the non-stop flow of new diets, exercise machines and our general obsession with health and weight loss? We're as unhealthy as ever. The truth is that we have pretty much had everything completely upside-down and backwards. FAT traces a detailed history spanning 150 years to show how misinformation and outright lies have become "truth." #fullmovie #freemovie #GravitasFilms #hdfilms
