Sweet Death – How Sugar Is Making Us Sick: https://youtu.be/b2taSMx6394

It’s official; there are now more fat people than skinny people in the world. Obesity is the biggest health crisis on the planet. For the first time in history, children are facing shorter lives than their parents.

Over the last 35 years, obesity rates have more than doubled leading to a massive and rapid increase in heart disease, kidney problems, high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes. How did we go from obesity rates of 9% to 30% in less than a generation?

Presented by overweight and diabetic Chef Simon Gault, these three documentaries examine the science behind a re-examination of traditionally accepted health advice, and the emergence of new evidence that at last makes sense of the looming health problems we face. Gault talks to experts from around the world and allows himself to be a human guinea pig in an attempt to improve his own health.

00:00 Episode 1: Into the Bod Pod
Simon puts himself through other medical tests including finding out his fat-to-muscle ratio in the "bod pod" at Massey University and using an MRI machine to gauge how much of his fat is visceral fat. Shocked to learn the true state of his health, Simon commits to making some serious changes so he can live longer and overcome his diabetes.

00:43:32 Episode 2: Most hated activity – exercise
Simon tackles one of his most hated activities – exercise. First up, a cardio-vascular fitness test so the team at Aut’s Millennium Institute can prescribe the most appropriate exercise for Simon – short, sharp resistance training and high-intensity interval training.

01:26:07 Episode 3: Sleep and the gut
Simon Gault’s support team shared with him their belief that quality of sleep is almost, if not as important for your health as your diet quality. Equally shocking for Simon to learn is how bacteria in your gut affect your overall health. And finally, the moment of truth, three months down the track it’s time for Simon to revisit all the experts.
