That Sugar Film is a documentary film that follows Australian actor and filmmaker Damon Gameau as he embarks on a unique experiment to document the effects of a high sugar diet on his body.
Gameau sets out to consume the average daily sugar intake of an Australian, which is about 40 teaspoons of sugar, by only eating foods that are commonly perceived as healthy, such as low-fat yogurt, muesli bars, and fruit juices.
Throughout the film, Gameau undergoes a series of medical tests and consults with experts to track the changes in his body as he consumes this high sugar diet. The results are shocking, as Gameau experiences weight gain, mood swings, and other negative health effects.
That Sugar Film serves as a wake-up call to viewers about the hidden sugars in many processed foods and the detrimental impact that excessive sugar consumption can have on our health. It encourages audiences to be more mindful of their sugar intake and make healthier choices for themselves and their families.
