Celebrity guinea pigs undergo an extreme junk food eating regime in a groundbreaking experiment. Singer Peter Andre, The Chase mastermind and barrister Shaun Wallace, politician Nadine Dorries, actress Hayley Tamaddon, Olympian Tessa Sanderson and TV personality Hugo Taylor have bravely given their bodies over to science to take part in an overfeeding study used by scientists to understand exactly how food can affect our bodies. Britain is a nation hooked on fast food. We consume 22 million takeaway meals every week and fast food joints are dominating high streets across Britain. n this program, six famous faces have agreed to put their bodies on the line and become guinea pigs in an extreme scientific experiment to find out what our junk food lifestyle is actually doing to us. For 21 days the celebs will be overeating burgers, fried chicken and pizza – Britain’s top three favourite junk foods – for lunch and dinner. The volunteers will each spend a week eating burgers, a week eating chicken and a week eating pizza and by subjecting them to a large increase in calories – 50% more than they need - over a short period of time, the effect on their bodies could mimic that of long term consumption.
