That Sugar Film

Where to stream: Amazon Prime

That Sugar Film is the perfect Amazon Prime documentary for that person with the major sweet-tooth. But, beware the truth of your late-night candy binges might be harming you more than you think.

In this documentary, Damon Gameau experiments by putting in his diet only foods that are “healthy” but really are packed with sugar! Audiences will get to see the drastic effect of the sugars on his healthy body. It will show you just how dangerous sugar can be.

The inspiration from this film came from Gameau’s own personal addiction to Vanilla Coke and cigarettes before he met the love of his life. Of course, he knew he couldn’t keep up this unhealthy lifestyle with his new boo, so he started leading by her instructions and eating healthy and practically without sugar, besides some nice dark chocolate squares here and there.

Gameau started paying attention to what he was consuming and the results were undeniable as his skin and mood improved. That’s when Gameau got the inspiration to teach the world through a documentary about the importance of diet.

Director Gameau puts emphasis on the hidden sugars we indulge on without even knowing! So many sauces such as barbeque, ketchup, and sweet and sour have crazy amounts of sugar, even more than straight chocolate sauce.

That Sugar Film will make you want to start reading labels when you are at the grocery store, and definitely start asking the waiter what’s in the house dressing. Because, once you start, just like Gameau, you will see that those hidden sugars are doing more harm on your body than you think.
