Launching in a Sydney store, the service brings consumers closer to not even having to burn any extra calories by walking into a store, or just to their cars if they wish to drive-thru to collect a Big Mac.

The “McDelivery” service comes with a $4.95 delivery charge with customers required to spend a minimum of $25 from a pared back version of the restaurant’s menu.

If the delivery trial is successful, the service is likely to be expanded to provide door-to-door fast food service in more areas.

Health and parenting groups have already been vocal in protest, criticising the fast food giant for making unhealthy foods more accessible.

Others have raised logistical concerns like the matter of the crispness of fries being transported across suburbs in vehicles.

But supporters will argue offering home delivery is a logical step for the chain.

“Australians have enjoyed convenience of restaurant home delivery for decades and value having that option available to them,” a McDonald’s spokesperson told AdNews.

The diet – which focuses on fresh fruit and vegetables, nuts, fish and olive oil – is “possibly the best strategy currently available” for preventing Alzheimer’s and other conditions involving memory loss, the doctors said.

In an open letter to the UK government, the experts urged the medical profession to focus on the benefits of the diet and not on the many “dubious” drugs flooding the market.

The letter’s signatories insists numerous studies have proven improvements to lifestyle have a “far greater effect” in the fight against dementia than anything else, including medications.

“The evidence base for the Mediterranean diet in preventing all of the chronic diseases plaguing the western world is overwhelming,” cardiologist Dr Aseem Malhotra says. “This includes cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s and cancer.

“Policymakers and the public need to know that such a diet is far more potent than the often dubious benefit of many medications and without side-effects.”

The singer has suffered from “learning difficulties” her entire life, but was told they were the result of brain damage caused by complications at her birth.

Last year, Susan started seeing a Scottish specialist who eventually diagnosed her with Asperger’s, a form of autism that affects social interaction and communication skills.

“I always knew ‘brain damage’ was an unfair label,” she told the Observer magazine. “Now I have a clearer understanding of what’s wrong and I feel relieved and a bit more relaxed about myself.”

Susan, who was dubbed ‘Simple Susan’ by her schoolmates when she was a child, said she thought the diagnosis would make her life easier.

“People will have a greater understanding of who I am and why I do the things I do,” she said.

“I have communicative difficulties, which leads to a lot of frustration. If people were a bit more patient, it would help.”

Susan shot to worldwide fame in 2009 when her Britain’s Got Talent audition video went viral on YouTube.

She found her sudden fame difficult to manage and went into rehab but is now flourishing after hiring a team of people to help her manage her condition.

“I’m not strong on my own,” she said.
