"Supersize me" - Dangers ?

In that film where the guy eats nothing but McDonalds for a month, his doctor tells him he's going to kill himself. I hardly think eating McDonalds for just a month would KILL you. Would it?

no. .

yes it would :smile:

most likely.

Probably the shock would! Imagine eating nothing but McDonalds for a month No fresh veggies or anything different I couldn't do it.

This *IS* a great documentary, in spite of the McDonald's 3-day-diet-stunt. The stunt is laughable, but does paint a picture about the quality of fast food, not just McDonalds. If people out there think Subway is a healthy alternative, I would suggest that it's NOT. It's the same processed food, white bread, processed meat.

In any case, suggested reading - Fast Food Nation: Behind The All American Meal

That's the guy's point. With that attitude, you'll be dead in a year.

Yes it would kill you. By about the second week his body was suffering from severe malnutrition, his body was developing diseases that have been extinct in the non chav western population for the past 200 years such as Scurvy.
