An open letter to the food network and Adam Richman.

Dear Food Network and Adam Richman,

I am writing this letter as a concerned viewer. Recently I watched a marathon of Man vs. Food and became concerned about the health of your host Adam Richman. There is no denying that as the show has progressed Adam has gained some weight. It is obvious you have tried to hide this by always dressing him in jackets and dark colors. Despite your efforts your host is obviously larger in the face and trunk area. Maybe the camera adds 10 lbs, but it doesn't take a nutritionist (although I did discuss this concern with one) to know that the weight is all fat. Sure maybe I should mind my own business or be satisfied with the wiki page stating "Adam exercised twice a day" response to every one's growing concern. When does this man exercise when he is filming 20 plus episodes a season, doing editing voice overs, and traveling on the road?

It is your responsibility as his employers to help this man by hiring the P90x guy as his personal trainer and hiring a Gastroenterologist (a doctor that specializes in the digestive system). Let's be honest, a man that has a diet that includes regular fasting and ingesting of 5-7 lbs of greasy food is bound to have problems. I can't even imagine what 50 buffalo wings will do to your colon.

In closing food network and Mr. Richman I leave you with one final thought. It is dangerous to eat that quantity of food at a high rate; it affords for choking and injuries to the hands and mouth, not to mention the content of the food is full of fats and cholesterol that can cause atherosclerosis (the build up of plaques on your artery walls) which often leads to a heart attack. In a show title "Man Vs. Food" there is always a clear winner. I am dreading the episode where Adam collapses and an EMT walks on the screen to check Adam's pulse only to say his final line "In this challenge between Man versus Food, Food has won..."

Nick
