Supercharge Me

Supercharge Me! 30 Days Raw (2007) is a feature length documentary film about the raw foods diet, made by Jenna Norwood, an independent filmmaker. In the film, inspired by Morgan Spurlock's Super Size Me, Jenna ate only raw foods - i.e. uncooked fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds - for thirty days, to document the effect it would have on her health. The movie features interviews with noted raw vegan David Wolfe, as well as others who follow the diet, including celebrities Ben Vereen and Kathy Sledge.

Synopsis

The film follows Jenna Norwood as she realizes her lack of healthy eating and enrolls in a thirty day raw food detox program in San Diego.

In the end she returns to where the film began in Florida with Jenna trying to fit into a showgirl outfit.
