The Effect Of Steroids On Athleticism

When most people eat at fast food establishments, they do not think about what exactly is going into their bodies, but Eric Schlosser and Charles Wilson want to change that. Their combined efforts result in the book Chew on This: Everything You Don’t Want to Know About Fast Food, which exploits the gruesome truths behind fast food. Schlosser and Charles begin their nonfiction work by explaining how fast food restaurant were created. Then, they transition into revealing what was changed in the process of establishing the fast food industry. Their discoveries occur in most fast food restaurant, but they focus on the corruption in McDonald’s tendencies.

In 2004, Morgan Spurlock subjected himself to a 30-day diet based solely on eating McDonald’s for 3 times a day and no working out. He wants to show and prove what the mental and physical effects are of consuming fast food for every meal. He set a few rules. He had to do it for 30 days, he can only eat or drink what is provided on McDonald’s menu, has to try everything on the menu at least once and if asked to supersize his meal, he must do so. He started his journey under the care of three physicians, one cardiologist, a gastroenterologist and a general practitioner. The unanimous decision was that Spurlock was in excellent health. They monitor him over the next 30 days to make sure he is not exposing himself to damage that cannot

He says that McDonald’s food was so good. He also mention that he didn't eat meat for a long time. He ate everything from the McDonald menu in 9 days. Throughout the diet, he got into depression sometimes. He developed cravings for McDonald’s food later on during his diet. Later on, he says that the McDonald’s food was repetitive. Basically his attitude to McDonald’s changes a lot throughout the diet. His health was affected dramatically during the diet. He gain pounds and increase his chances of getting a heart attack. His doctor prediction was right on some parts, but his health was affected so

Was it a hangover? Was it food poisoning from a bad pizza? Or maybe, was it a fake? It might change a mind two. Let’s get to the basics, alright. Knowing the facts will change the perspective on what happened.

The movie "Super Size Me" is a documentary on a man who has decided to consume only McDonald's food for a period of thirty days. This man, Mr. Spurlock, has embarked on this adventure to assess the health issue of McDonald's food. Of course, there are a couple of rules. He has to eat McDonalds for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. He also has to devour everything on the menu at least once. If he is asked to super size his meal, he must submit. His experiences during this thirty day trial period are astonishing. Even more startling is what happens to his physical wellness during this McDonalds rampage.

In the movie Supersize Me I watched the results of a man eating McDonald’s for 30 days. He had the purpose of going out and testing a theory to see how bad results of eating a strict fast-food diet had on the human body. The Movie gave me a new perception toward the way I look at fast-food. Yes, everyone knows that fast food is bad for you, but the average person didn’t know about all of the health hazards in which McDonald’s gives. Adapting an “ No McDonald’s Diet” is nearly impossible, but after seeing this will affect my choices seeing as there are only seven items that have no

Steroids are a hot topic of debate and controversy in the world of athletes and sports. Steroids fall under the umbrella of performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) and are a dark cloud that have been hovering over the sports world for a long time. In the world today, steroids are the most relevant in major league baseball. Many baseball players, such as Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, Ryan Braun, and Mark McGwire, just to name a few, have ruined their reputations because of steroids. There are repercussions for PED use in major league baseball, which have cut down on the substance abuse by players but have nowhere near eliminated the problem.

Steroid abuse has become a huge problem in professional sports today. Athletes are now using steroids to gain a competitive edge over their opponents. Also, the athletes are using the steroids to recover quickly from major injuries or surgeries. Many former superstar athletes have been caught taking steroids during the season and offseason.

“Health officials soon traced the outbreak of food poisoning to undercooked hamburgers served at local Jack in the Box restaurants.”

Unfortunately, I took the cheeseburger and bit in to it without even looking. When I started to chew it felt like I had a hand full of onions in my mouth. I accidentally swallowed all of it because I was shocked. About 20 minutes later my throat and tongue started to swell to the point I couldn’t breathe.

In the film, “Super Size me”, a man takes part in a 30 day journey of only eating McDonald’s. Required to only eat menu items and accept all offers to “Super Size” his meal (making his fries and drink more than double the regular size) , the man made it the entire way. What was the cause of this though? Extreme repercussions. The man contracted type two diabetes nearly two months later and frequently got sick during the experiment. One specific day the man was forced to super size his meal and eat a whopping half pound cheese burger causing him to instantly become sick. The reality of this though, as presented in the film, is that millions of americans eat a meal closely related to this, on a regular

Juliet Lee doesn’t understand the medical conundrums obtained from eating like this. Based on evidence provided by Robert Glatter he says,” Those people will have elevated cholesterol, diabetes, artery disease and more.” This is very dangerous. New studies have been done and it can also cause brain damage or seizures. All being very life threatening. Risking your life for twelve minutes of fame and, money that will last one trip to the hospital is not worth it. Generally speaking the money you win will go right to your hospital stay. Abrams Abby claims that,” emergency medical technicians are present.” “They have had medical injuries recorded in the past before, they had some scary consequences.” The consequences have affected professional eaters down the road in life. Eating like this is life threatening and not worth it. In Conclusion these medical risks are much more than you think you can imagine and could ruin your life ahead.
