The world’s fattest man – who once weighed 445 kilograms – has passed away after a week-long energy drink binge.
Andres Moreno is said to have gorged on energy drinks following on from a “problem with his wife”, news.com.au reports.
Doctors believe his personal life triggered “emotional stress” that led to Mr Moreno dramatically abandoning a post-weight loss surgery diet.
He was found at his home in Mexico, days after his 38th birthday.
“He drank more than six energy drinks a day according to his family and we believe it could be a lot more than six,” Dr Jorge Ojeda, who treated Mr Moreno, told MailOnline.
“As an obese man, although he was losing weight and was starting to move, exposing yourself to a stimulant can cause an irregular heartbeat, and that or a heart attack can lead to death.”
The official cause of his death was a heart attack and problems associated with peritonitis.
