Can't believe almost a full page nobody has said;
37!? In a row?
But seriously, in the short go this guy proved you can do it and see weight loss. I'm not trying to be high and mighty, but McDonalds and for that matter most of what is stocked on the shelves of your grocery store, is not really real food. Anything that has been enriched, modified, grown with chemicals, contains additives etc., is not real food your body is hard wired to metabolize correctly into energy. Your body adapts but it takes it metabolic response out of balance. Some where some system, organ or group is compensating within your body and you are running true. It's the long term cumulative effects that are the detriment, because yes, you can live on it. But the continued research into whole/real foods vs what we eat everyday, constantly updates us with new/old information about being healthy. I say old information BC, our ancient ancestor didn't realize he was doing it, but there was no processing, enriching, steroid chicken, pesticides etc, added to his food. They also didn't have the cancers and disease we do. The life span increase some of you are about to throw at me as your argument against, is based in large if not total, to the sanitation and healthcare standard and advances is treatments/surgeries etc. I'm not advocating doing the paleo diet, I'm just saying this experiment's results are spun in this story to indicate that you can live healthy in perpetuity by eating McDonalds in proper proportion. In the short term yes. Long term, I wouldn't hedge my future on McNuggets and Big Macs. The ultimate right in this article and experiment is choice and moderation of anything. McDonalds is just the medium
