The Truth About...: Calories

INHALT

In the second documentary on health issues, Chris van Tulleken runs a series of experiments to get to the bottom of calories. He tests the real calorie content of randomly selected supermarket foods - finding that the labels aren't always accurate - and examines the best way to burn them off. For this he gets three families to engage in different activities after a big fry-up - from a tough workout at the gym to relaxing on the sofa. He also reveals a few kitchen secrets, managing to strip 360 calories out of steak, chips and a cream pudding without changing a single ingredient.
