A British man has horrified nutritionists and healthy eaters worldwide by confessing he has eaten nothing but Mars bars for the past 17 years.

Keith Sorrell, a 37-year-old printer from Liverpool, professes to be in perfect health, despite consuming a dozen of the chocolate bars every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Mr Sorrell gets through 4,000 Mars bars every year and is proof that man can live on Mars, The Sun newspaper reports.

"People say it’s bad for me but I drink lots of orange juice and take vitamins. I haven’t changed my diet for 17 years and my health is fine,” Mr Sorrell told the British daily.

Mr Sorrell's unwavering devotion to the chocolate bars started while he was still at school, when he would eat one or two between meals.

"All my pocket money went on them and one day I realised I couldn’t get by without them."

Mr Sorrell said he is now completely addicted to Mars bars and usually polishes off 12 a day, sometimes even more on weekends.

"When it’s mealtimes for other people I normally eat two or three Mars, and I’ve always got a bar handy at work."

A top Australian nutritionist told ninemsn that while Mr Sorrell's diet is inadvisable, the human body can survive on extreme diets.

"Humans are very resilient. People survive in concentration camps eating next to nothing," Nutrition Society of Australia president Andrew Sinclair said.

"He probably wouldn't be suffering from vitamin deficiency if he is taking the vitamins, but he would be missing out on essential fatty acids and I would say his cardiovascular health would be suspect," Mr Sinclair said.

While there is a lot of energy in a Mars bar and some protein, Mr Sorrell would also be lacking in fibre which would affect his bowel functions, Mr Sinclair said.

"I would also question his fitness and whether he is overweight
