Donald Gorske, 71, consumes 35,000 Big Macs, credits health to exercise

News summary

Donald Gorske, a 71-year-old retired prison guard from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, has set a Guinness World Record by consuming over 35,000 Big Macs since he first tried one in 1972. Despite his extraordinary diet, Gorske reports no negative health effects, attributing his well-being to regular six-mile walks and avoiding fries with his burgers. His wife confirmed that his blood sugar and cholesterol levels remain normal, leading Gorske to joke about his longevity against expectations. Health experts, however, caution against fast food, labeling it as 'edible food product' rather than real food, and highlight the risks associated with such diets. Gorske plans to continue his Big Mac consumption, insisting that he may be the only person able to do so without adverse effects. Nevertheless, medical professionals warn that his case is an anomaly and not a model for healthy eating.
