Description

Time to take the country by the love handles and expose people’s true eating habits. Secret Eaters is a groundbreaking series that aims to expose the eating habits of overweight families by putting them under 24-hour camera surveillance. Our candidates are in denial about why they gain weight. They think they are eating healthy but the hidden cameras reveal something completely different. Each week, people who are mystified as to why they’re piling on the pounds, discover how many calories really are in the food they’re eating. They have agreed to have their every move and mouthful captured inside the house, but are unaware that there are detectives following them when they leave the house and cameras hidden in every corner – in the supermarket, the local pub, their car. Their diets are then analyzed by two experts who debunk the food industry's jargon, and explain how the body can fool us into wanting more of the kind of foods that aren't good for us. Once the families are made aware of the true scale of their overeating, they embark on a ten week ‘Food Rehab' regime to help them shift the pounds once and for all.
