That’s true. He died of pancreatic cancer. Heavy alcohol use can lead to conditions such as chronic pancreatitis, which is known to increase pancreatic cancer risk. The largest associated cause of pancreatic cancer is food that is cooked until charred or blackened, which you won’t find much of at McDonald’s.
With that being said, don’t eat at McDonald’s. It’s terribly malnutritious, laden with chemical treatments, and sourced by forced prison slave labor.
A hidden path to America’s dinner tables begins here, at an unlikely source – a former Southern slave plantation that is now the country’s largest maximum-security prison.
One line in and already sounds like a horrible parody of the states that we’d call too on the nose
His method wasn’t specifically about eating super-size, it was just that he ate nothing but McDonald’s for a month (and probably a lot of booze according to various sources).
That’s true, but that only amounted to 9 meals out of 90 over the month. It wasn’t really the burning issue, just a knee jerk reaction to the title of the film.
I believe a school tested it with some volunteers, someone also challenged the original movie by eating a healthy amount of calories of just McDonald’s food.
Spurlock also admitted to struggling with alcoholism. While reflecting on his sobriety journey, Spurlock told ABC News he had to start with himself, adding, “I wished I’d done it 10 years ago.”
I’ve lost quite a few people to various addictions over the years. Only 1 to drinking.
Storytime if you're curiousThat one still haunts me oftentimes (though not as much as it used to) about a decade later. They were my long-term boyfriend at the time and after our mutual long-term girlfriend passed away suddenly we both fell off the wagon hard. I made it out the other side of the path of self destruction, they didn’t. And when they passed I fell even harder into alcoholism. My wakeup call was when my doctor asked how many drinks I had per week and when I told him he had me go through the math right there for how I calculated it. It was over 300. I was there because of some health issues that turned out to be liver problems. I got sober a few months later.
Sobriety can be a real bitch to maintain at first but it gets easier the longer you’re sober. Especially if you utilize the new found clarity of mind to address the causes of your addiction.
Nice! I’m not even at a full year and I’m like, damn if I’d known the dry life would be so much better I would’ve never started drinking. Physically/mentally/emotionally/(sexually) everything has just got better. Even things like singing and dancing (which I could barely bring myself to do after a full night of boozing) are better sober.
A creative way to tell a student how to download a free book while telling them “not to”. The professor probably just wants to teach and is as tired of the university bullshit as the students.
