Is this new? Google result when searching for Ray Peat Forum. I hope Katherine has an attorney.

I think he is in the process of changing the name. The email announcements say Low Toxin Lifestyle as well now.

The only thing left is the domain. Which he is likely registering and wil then migrate the site.

And of course raypeatforum.com will then redirect to "Low Toxin Lifestyle"

That's just my assumption based on what I see so far.

From what I understand charlie is in major financial trouble

What is this 'financial trouble?'

Does he run the health products store that is always advertised on top and bottom of the forum?

Is it The Life Giving Store? If so, I bought a red light pod from there years ago, lol.

I only recently learned Charlie has a store somehow tied to the forum.

@ilovethesea If ChristAlone was Sugarbabe, then she has been on the low VA theory for atleast the past 5 years.

She ragged on me for taking vitamin A to treat night blindness in a post description as far back as about 2018-2019.

Aside from the mental illness angle, does anyone else suspect there may be some monetary motivations behind all of this?

Someone had posted a screenshot of Garrett's twitter, where he had in turn posted a screen shot of RPF with all the yellow 'low toxin' buttons overwhelming the page and made a comment to the extent of "Low VA theory, infecting the Ray Peat Forum!"

Could Charlie have some sort of "deal" with Garrett in an attempt to spread his rhetoric? Ultimately landing folks on Garrett's doorstep, cuz after all, doesn't he charge for consultation, advice, membership?

It's so bizarre because you have this core group of maybe less than 6-8 peeps who are constantly running this stuff all over the forum. Even Charlie will comment in on another thread that has nothing to do with VA, but will chime in anyways about low VA being the cure for 'literally' everything!

And that's another thing that just grinds my gears!

No one sounds more unintelligent than a dimwit using the word literally as an intensifier! There is plenty of debate here, apologies if you do that, but please stop! Unfortunately it is all too common in the English language, but it is incorrect! Sue me!

Charlie and ChristAlone use that word constantly in their low VA droppings. Are they related? Married? I feel like there is some sort of connection there. Maybe just the same person?

"Literally, because of Garrett Smith and the Low A community, I have literally learned that toxic bile theory is literally the key to health, and a low VA diet cures literally everything!... Literally!"

Anyways, everything seemed to happen quite suddenly, gotta be something more to it. I had a friend who did lots of dietary restrictions, vegan, fastings, questionable substances as well, and now his mental state is wildly different in personality, beliefs, etc.

Oh well! Rant over for now.
