I don’t know if Morgan was an alcoholic or not

he was. and he kept it a secret during the documentary. There's even a moment in it where the doc basically said "I only see values like this in alcoholics" This alone basically completey invalidates anything in the documentary. regardless of any health problems fastfood might cause.

In 2017, Spurlock – who previously told his doctors he did not drink – admitted to copious amounts of alcohol consumption during the making of the film. Documentary filmmaker Phelim McAleer questioned whether this may better account for Spurlock's liver issues and other health problems, since it is uncertain whether he changed his alcohol intake during the experiment.
