What kind of health risks does Adam Richman face on Man vs Food

What kind of health risks does Adam Richman face on Man vs Food?
I dont know if you all seen the show but he competes in outrageous food challenges. For example i just seen him eat a burger that had 5 patties, 5 cheeses, tortilla chips, salsa, sour cream, chopped tomatoes, lettuce, and chili. He already looks overweight and i was wondering if he is basically killing himself on tv,

What are sucrose,fructose,glucose etc.What r their food sources?Which r bad for health?
I am confused by various different forms of sugar like fructose, sucrose, glucose and what not. Which of these are good for health and which are harmful, and to be avoided. What are the food items from which which we get these various types. I specifically want to know which of them should be avoided and which can be freely taken.

Sucrose is the most common sugar, found in many plants. This is the sugar that is extracted from plants like sugar cane and used as a sweetener. Fructose is found in honey and in fruit and is also used as a preservative. Glucose is the sugar we need for our energy and it is found in plant and animal tissue. They are all quite similar and there is a small quantity of one of these three in most foods. You need not worry about how much sugar you take in as long as you have a healthy diet and do not eat many fats and oils (like sweets and cakes which are high in fat and sugar). You will be fine because the sugar will take care of its self, provided you eat well. You do not need to avoid any of them but I don't suggest going out to take any of these in pure form on their own. Take enough in your meals to give you energy for the day but not much more

Why do they print health warnings on tobacco and on alcohol but not on unhealthy food?
So many people eat unhealthy food without knowing (or by ignoring ) the fact it gonna make them sick.

Because they haven't yet figured out how to put an excise tax on them. Once they do that, the warning label will be mandated. I'm quite serious.
2 :
because we dont want to except it
3 :
Because the FDA approves the food that makes you sick enough to take the medicine that guess who...the FDA approves...it's a way of giving them job security and fat wallets. Imagine if the foods that give all these people high cholesterol stopped being purchased and consumed. The medications to help cholesterol wouldn't sell like it does and causing a big profit loss...Trust me when I tell you it's all about money
4 :
because tobacco and alcohol mean death, and that is WAY more important then "unhealthy food".....
5 :
Because tobacco and alcohol is more dangerous than unhealthy food
