TheEngineer, a study on medical students showed that excessive fructose consumption could result in a fatty liver in as little as six days, so I'm sure you're right. No doubt the results Morgan Spurlock experienced -- cirrhosis reminiscent of years of alcoholism -- after a mere month on the McDonalds-only diet is no doubt also illustrative of this phenomenon.

A few things that bothered me about Super Size Me.. First off, his diet prior to the McDonald's diet was so damn different.. Of course his body was going to go haywire. I have a cousin that used to literally LIVE off McDonald's and never had the issues Morgan did (I thought his name was something else.. but I digress). I mean, his girlfriend was a vegan cook for God sake! Secondly, he had too strict of a eating schedule. 3 times a day and HAVING to eat the Super Sized meal if asked about it. I wonder how many meals the average American eats.. I'm willing to bet not 3.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

The point is that extreme amounts of sugar and fat can have dramatic effects in a short time. Imagine what damage years of excessive (though obviously lower) consumption can cause.

I personally think excessive sugar consumption is more dangerous than smoking.

Oh, I know and understand the point. It just bothered me because I know that a good majority of the viewers probably never thought of the points I brought up and formulate their opinion.

Funny you say that. Of the two people who have been verified to have lived to 122, both smoked. Except I say that with an asterisk. The dude quit smoking at 101 because at 101, he realized it was bad for him.

Excessive sugar consumption causes Type 2 Diabetes. Folks generally don't live into triple digits with Type 2 Diabetes. (My apologies to anyone who has it. I'm just stating the odds).

Smoking can cause lung cancer (but only about 10% of lung cancer cases are attributable to smoking!) . . . if you live long enough. Marijuana smoking doesn't even cause that -- it's been shown to have a protective effect against lung cancer!

Sugar causes Type II diabetes . . . obesity . . . gout . . . atherosclerosis . . . fatty liver disease . . . heart disease . . . and any of a number of hormonal problems.

Now tell me which one is worse.
