    Because he's not so great, he's quite the charlatan. In human studies PUFAs are typically helpful or neutral, yet his claim that they're toxic is probably what he hammers on the most throughout his work. The fact that he died of a stroke makes sense given that he preferred saturated fat, so much so that he would even use hydrogenated fats to avoid the little amount of PUFAs in coconut oil.

    @Evolutionarily said in If Ray Peat is so great, why is he dead?:

    It seems plausible to me that in the 85 to 100+ age range, genetics may play the largest role

    Not only does this directly contradict Ray Peat's own claims but it is also wrong. Read de Magalhães or whoever.

      @beastliboi the thought i have is he got the wuhan virus and ray being ray didnt take high enough doses of aspirin or vitamin e or anything much to deal with it, i think in one of his newsletters he even suggested that the whole thing isn't such a big deal. there's lots of people who are dealing with post-viral issues now that chronic fatigue syndrome is finally pretty much mainstream and accepted.

      as far as the pufa thing i know a health group where they use some pufas therapeutically (stuff like GLA and pufa in foods) and they are constantly posting great athletic transformations and pretty amazing hair loss reversals.

      who is this de Magalhães you are referring to?

      also i think bodybuilding / weight training is one of the keys to long healthy life. (not talking about neurotic pro bodybuilding , im talking about using weights regularly) and ray literally has a quote where he says he is not interested in it at all.

        Where did you get this news? From Garrett Smith? Or did you just simply make this up?

          all I know for certain is going cold turkey on pufa for at least 5 yrs made me metabolize both simple sugar and complex carbs very well, my blood sugar became very stable I can easily fast for 3 days without feeling I'll effects, I no longer have allergies.

          I used to have to eat brown rice as eating white rice makes me hypoglycemic but after my cold turkey of pufas I went back to eating white rice as I no longer had issues of hypoglycemia anymore.

          So the benefits of Pufa restriction are very real to me.

            I think there was a post on the retard forum which said he was eating vegetables again, maybe the sudden diet change wasn't good, maybe the stress of everything going on, maybe we're all visited in our sleep and asked if we are ready to go, and he was. Who knows.

            Nobody knows for sure yet what determines the length of life, there are only clues as Ray wrote about.

            He still lived to a decent age and at a better quality than a majority of his cohort. Who the fuck wants to live to 100 anyway? Unless you are filthy rich you're probably going to be eating tinned cat food at the age and being held down for the latest 'vaccine'.

              @Hando-Jin I did hear Ray say in interviews near the end of his life that he was experimenting more with vegetables. Sounded a lot like his original "Nutrition for Women" actually. Problem is I can't remember the interviews and bioenergetic.life doesn't seem to have the clips either. 😞

                    I am surprised this post got so much replies I made it as a joke and it actually sparked interesting discussion
